Synopsis

Album Description
Now in its second year, a unique event in its own right ATP is curated by Tortoise and Foundation and this compilation is being released to coincide with the sold out event next month that features performances from Television (original Marquee Moon line-up, reformed especially for ATP), Lambchop, Boards Of Canada, Sun Ra Arkestra featuring Marshall Allen and also ESG. The successful indie weekender has encouraged artists to contribute rare and exclusive tracks from the likes of Autechre, Boards Of Canada, Broadcast, Yo La Tengo and Calexico as well as deleted material from curators Tortoise and The Sea and Cake The success of the festival has led to promoters Foundation taking the unsponsored and independent event to the states where Sonic Youth are curating later this October at University of California Los Angeles. 80% of ticket sales were sold through the all tomorrows parties website. Next Year in April 2002, Shellac have been confirmed as Curators and artists such as Low, Plush, Fugazi and The Breeders are very close to confirming. Gatefold digipak. 2001 release.

Wonderful comp for a wonderful show
John Spain | Stuart, FL USA | 06/10/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)

"ATP was a show organized by Tortoise that occurred last April in London. This compilation is (mostly) unreleased tracks from performers at this show. Overall a strong effort by each. Some of the remixes arent really all that special. The Boards of Canada remix is the same song with only a heavier drumbeat, and the Sea and Cake remix doesnt really add anything to the song. Still, in both cases the songs are already strong without the need of making changes to them. I especially enjoyed the Tortoise track (which never stopped changing throughout it's 15 minutes), the Broadcast track (which perhaps marks a new direction for the band), and the Prefuse 73 (which i believe is unreleased in the US)"
