Charles Atlas is an instrumental duo (often expanding into a trio or quartet) who utilize
effected guitar, piano, synthesizer, melodica, trumpet, drum loops, samples, and other
instrumentation to paint expansive musical pastures on the crowded walls of the urban
centers they and their audiences call home. In this sense Charles Atlas is akin to a large,
green city park, the difference being that whereas the land for, say, Central Park was set
aside long ago, Charles Atlas must forge the aural and (via synaesthesia if not musical
anesthesia) visual space it seeks to fill. The two-dimensional surface upon which CA paints
its murals, the tympanic membrane of the human ear, is in fact quite small; whats more, as a
membrane, it has no depth. Without this third dimension, how can the musician hope to
create full-bodied works? Only when the fourth dimension of time is borrowed does the
picture come into relief; both depth and extension are now possible. Charles Atlas makes
ample use of this dimension, with shuffle-slow pacing and lengthy looped pieces whose
repeating musical phrases establish the gridlines of the new space while intersecting
improvised figures move through it, encounter each other, negotiate, linger, engage,
separate, or expire. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
