Dive into analogue shadows with “The Library Archive Vol. 2” — the second chapter in ATA Records’ cinematic archive of dust-smeared organ grooves, spooky atmospheres and full-on library-music swagger. Recorded at ATA’s all-analogue Leeds studio in the autumn of 2020, this is vintage European library ethos filtered through a modern crate-digger’s lens. ATA Records+2Rough Trade+2
Expect moody basslines, wonky Italian-organ flourishes, foghorn trombones and the kind of suspense that crackles like film-reel static. Opener “The Glass Eye” creeps in with a taut riff and whispering percussion, “Fight or Fuzz” channels fuzz-laden chase scenes and album closer “Going Galtactic” blasts you back to the mothership. Forced Exposure+2ATA Records+2
For lovers of the forgotten soundtracks, the underground library labels, and that sweet intersection between horror-score chill and funk-groove heat — this volume is your secret archive come alive.
