The man behind the sound of Attic Trax is Richard Jacob, writer, sound engineer and producer
who has worked on numerous projects encompassing a variety of musical styles
from classical recording, live indie bands as well as numerous dance projects
including producing the 1998 MOBO winner "Get Up" by The Jazz Stepper's.
We are a recording project that has been going for about nine years. Most of the
musicians used are either friends or family. The music represents an
accumulation of all theirs and my musical influences. The end result can vary
from Nu Jazz to Indie rock. The constants though are strong grooves married
layers of sounds and atmospheres. The end result is mainly down tempo with a bit
of attitude.
Creative Inspiration is taken from everyday life - travel, family, films,
politics, pets and pubs along with such musical influences ranging from Lemon
Jelly, Zero 7, Groove Armada to Led Zeppelin, Beth Orton, The Stone Roses mixed
with a bit of the Chemical Brothers and Faithless.
The other key part of the project is Steve Jones, the quiet and understated
genius behind the Attix Trax guitar sound. The complete master of a layered
tapestry of electric sound, he also brings it down nicely with dexterous
acoustic gems.
