Magazine Sixty Music Review with Afterlife
Greg Fenton reviews Afterlife – NagualTonalSeeing (The Big Picture Mix) – Subatomic I think this is one of the finest pieces of music (using the word advisedly) I have had the pleasure of hearing in some time. Quite possibly a long time. If sound communicates an emotionally important, informative part in your life – like…

Magazine Sixty Music Review with Afterlife

Afterlife – Mahalo EP – Subatomic
Mahalo sounds like the party has already started. Dancing with crazy pleasure, lost in a tomorrow of future Jazz incantations, sharp beats and smooth chords talking up soulful yesterday’s while notes melt together celebrating.

Afterlife – Rising Up – Subatomic
A song for our times. Rising Up sums up the yin and yang transcribing the capacity of music to effect the possibility of positive change. I think this has to be one of my favourite Afterlife compositions to date, something to do with that meandering, warm bass and pads accompanied by a summer of excitement…
