Dialect’s Atlas of Green – Available Now!
In the world today, Atlas of Green, the fifth full-length album from musician and composer Andrew PM Hunt, Dialect.
If you’ve followed RVNG or dialect in recent years, you might know the origin story of Under~Between, Andrew’s beloved debut on the label in 2021. Whereas Under~Between was a cumulation after years of dialogue, atlas of green appeared almost from a silence.
This silence wasn’t a “I don’t care what you think, I’ll do as I please” silence. Quite the contrary, as several hundred (thousands?) emails and calls have been exchanged over the years, some cherished time shared when our paths have been fortunate enough to converge, and we’ve simply settled into the comfort and confidence of a well-lived and appreciated collaboration. So, for Andrew to set forth on the creation of Atlas of Green with little more than some encouragement to make something, symbolized an almost ascetic vow to return with music once it had fully formed and matched his expectation.
Suffice it to say, Atlas of Green defied all of expectations when it arrived. There was some clue where Andrew was headed with this work, having seen him perform early versions in the fall of 2023 (almost a year ago to date). But the end presentation of the album, complete with andrew’s backdrop on green, Atlas’s protagonist, was jarring on first experience, both in how different it was from his prior work and how astounding it was in its creative evolution and depth. Whether you’re familiar with andrew’s past work, or just now being acquainted, the immediacy of atlas of green is undeniable in its musical and emotional magnetism.
We couldn’t be more honored to serve Andrew’s vision, and excited for you to experience Atlas of Green. Limited rtist and standard vinyl, Japanese Import CD (via Plancha), and digital editions are shipping now. We’ll see you on the other side.
