Sounds Like
A festival band on a far distant desert planet......I guess we sound a bit like some of the bands in our influences list. However, we sound mostly like us.
Secret Archives of the Vatican is a small, mobile, intelligent collective of musicians. They mix breakbeats, dub, Arabian and Indian flavours, conscious lyrics, funky riddims and more to create their own unique sound. We don't know what to call this music....maybe Orientalist Dub or Transglobal Breakbeat Dub Science or sumthin' like that.....
SAotV has released many private recordings over the years and several tunes have been placed on compilations in Europe and the USA. In June 2008 they released Babylon Halt, a 13 track CD album. In February 2009, they released a 9 track download only album, Remembering Machine. Since then several non-album tracks have been made available for free download from various websites. The band is powered by chickpeas.
