As the settled dust lay bare on the road to uncertainty. Out of the mud the Planet Sundae
label springs back from a two-year hiatus, presenting the feverous Florentine ..... DJ Blasy
for its next cone.
Quantasoma is inspired by The Drowned World by J.G. Ballard. Set in a future where the ice
caps have melted and the rising oceans have submerged so much of the inhabited world. A new
nature has formed here, and cities have become primeval swamps. Humans are now in rapid
decline as giant lizards, dragonflies and insects thrive.
The music on this record looks to describe this new world, and unlike the book where the story
is told from a human perspective, the point of view here is shifted to the eyes of nature. What
for humans is a dystopian future, for the natural world it is an insignificant change. Emotionless
and detached, these processes carry on regardless of what is happening, like photosynthesis in
the quantasomes.
