ATP are impossible
to categorize much less fathom in the intricate weave of musical texture
& interplay that spontaneously occur in the midst of their musical manifestations.
Japan's Taata is the centrifugal & mystifying force behind this expansive
& alluring force of ATP. Her Vocals & keys along with Mug's Mongolian
hyper riffs & synthesis whirl about the dreamer of sound & vision in
compliment to Kohei's Bass work & the percussive dazzle & drive of Kaz's
drumming. Listening
to ATP is like being in the vortex of a tsunami or eye of a hurricane.
It can be peaceful & beautiful in the midst of a fury of energy Cuts such
as "Here we Are" with it's vibrancy & cutting edge to "Moon Dance" traverse
a retro-nouveau trance that spatially shines the listeners senses. The
catchy electron hook of "Nowhere Girl" melds with "Life Is A Process
Of Dying" & its acoustic, middle ages tinged reflection pool. In
"Cracked" an atonal industrial groove core segue's into "Raining Into
Kyoto" , with its half time signature & stark arena atmosphere. The
musical path of Adenosine Tri-Phosphate traverses many a road of musical
scenario Songs like
" If you Ever" with its introspective emotional explorations play along
side cuts like "Psychedelic Child" & "White Time" that delve into perspectives
in relationships with a vast exhilarating balladry & progression of
chromatic changes. A
moment of isolation & oblique worldly detachment in "Theme" give way
to the blues tinged "Charlatan Of Love" & the hard driven guitar edge
of "Where Are We Going To" The constant
alluring quality & magnetizing hypnotizing effect of the mere presence
Taata & her vocal styling are enough to perplex ,endure & captivate.
Taata
could melt the cold heart of any sentient being in The coupling of "My
Old Green Martian Baby" parts I & II ; This ambient sonic sequence is
haunting in its beauty as are songs such as the whimsical "Gion" with
it's obtuse & melodic content. The infusion of Japanese & English language
in various sections further enhances the eclectic flavor of ATP Adenosine Tri-Phosphate
are a never ending musical enigma of eccentric brilliance. Songs as
experimental & intuitive as "Aroused Zen Monk" are enough to create
Zazen in the participant of the ATP experience. As avant-garde as ATP
can be, they are conversely highly melodic with a post modern pop flair
that are all but reserved for the original & creative elite artists
that once in a blue moon grace us with their vibrations As a tune
that shines a spotlight like " Sun Dance", the cosmic dance of Adenosine
Tri-Phosphate is not only a dark hole in the infinite universe of time
& space ; But also the bright shining lighthouse of a blazing star that
will never go out, but sublimely lead to unfathomable & beautiful musical
expression & art |

Tri-Phosphate conjure up an implosion from the land of the rising sun
of mesmerizing sonic ethereal ambiance. ATP have a completely unique
dreamscape to their inner audio vision that although hybrid in certain
frames, are ultimately & utterly unique in their exotic artistic flair
& presentation of audio color hue & variation
