about

Panthalassa is the session header designated to all Vibra sessions recorded with the ARP 2600 monophonic analog synthesizer, embodied in the White Pillar Workshop by Behringer's reinstatement of the instrument in the "Blue Marvin" variation (which features a dedicated LFO and a mechanical spring reverb within the unit itself). The ARP 2600 is an iconic machine, used by a great many people, and yet it still manages to convey new shapes and textures when directed by different minds.

This first volume of Panthalassa consists of two different sessions, originally broadcast (in primordial form) as far back as October 2021, final-glossed and properly framed here for publication. The session used a minimal hardware configuration - basically the ARP 2600 itself, with sequencing in the Mandelbaum scale routed from the R-EW Audioholistics system, with no post-processing on the signal emerging from the ARP. Further granular, filtering and parametric equalization work was applied in the mastering session for Panthalassa, in June of 2023.

It is from these two sessions that the name Panthalassa emerged - referring to the superocean that surrounded the Pangaea landmass during the Paleozoic-Mesozoic transition. It occupied nearly 70% of the Earth's surface, and listening to these slow waves of chordal forms emanating from this blue machine, it is easy to imagine such a place. For longtime listeners, it is also worth noting that many moments in Panthalassa's not-inconsiderable runtime recall the Beyond the Sea/Stars albums from 2006 at Infraction Records, illustrating once again that it does not matter what tools I am using, that my music follows pathways that are inescapably recursive.

Tigress effortlessly gliding between the stoned, dusty grooves with that instantly identifiable "just behind the beat" bass line - one of my all time favourites amongst many from Brian's myriad milieu of mazey marvels. da5idh
