Bio -- Atole started out winter of 1998 when Manny Reyes was in NYC studying Art/Film @ Hunter and making experimental scores for student films. in 2000 Manny moved to Portland and started a live Atole version that briefly included Chris Piuma. In 2003 Atole became a quintet Theater ensemble- one Manny and 4 boomboxes! Each had their own persona and each played different musical sounds. 100 shows and 2 tours later Manny destroyed all the boomboxes during an argument at a Live show (R.I.P. Boomboxes + Towne Lounge)..
In 2006 Atole was asked to open for Matmos- Manny decided to form a Live band! Tim Ferrell was the first New member on keys and programming; then Mikey Conroy joined on drums Summer 2007; finally, Marius Libman (aka Copy) on electric bass late 2008! In 2009 Atole was signed to Audio Dregs Records with a debut LP coming late 2009. Plus a Split 7" with White Fang on their New label CHIPS! Sooner however- two New EP's, a New T-Shirt, and a Summer Tour in June with Starfucker!
"…its your typical ZZ Top meets Depeche Mode in a darkened discotheque (post-prom after party) and it turns into a “live for YouTube” knife fight. In the tussle two members of Throbbing Gristle accidentally lose a pinky and someone else falls into a punch bowl. I don’t need to tell you who wins the fight, but I think you get the basic aural picture." -E*Rock
