  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    12" (180g). Complete with the band's lyrics and album artwork by designer Mark Battle. ATC launches their newest album “DASH” on vinyl. Recording throughout the pandemic they met several delays and hardships, but the band continued collaborating, remotely at times, to bring the next chapter of ATC to its debut. On the new album you will hear the band together in Dimension Sound Studios with Boston producer/engineer Dan Cardinal (Darlingside, Henry Jamison, Josh Ritter, Ballroom Thieves) along with longtime ATC collaborators Seth Kasper and Adrian Aiello. The ambition was not to match up with past ATC albums, or to meet some expectation, in fact, ATC’s formulas were often set aside in an effort to search from within each member. However, if you have loved anything by ATC, the stories, charm, nostalgia, hooks, DASH will pull you in from the opening line “It was chapter one...”, and take you on a beautiful ride.

    Praise for DASH, now available here on Vinyl!

    “earnest and confessional … a lively and eminently catchy marriage... organic singer/songwriter influences… electro pop pulse" -Under The Radar

    "A deeper maturity” -American Songwriter

    "Their new album, Dash, is a refreshing melodic venture that offers depth with discerned intent rather than a pointlessly dissonant middle-eight." - Far Out Magazine

    "an earnest quality to Munro’s songwriting and vocal delivery that oozes authenticity" - Performer Mag

    "Laying down a grooving indie pop backdrop full of rhythmic brass arrangement with Dave Munro spinning melodic vocal leads, “20” sees a celebrated band at the top of their game." - Plastic Magazine

    “20” is a pop rock track that hits hard in a nostalgic and introspective way." - Hot Lunch Music

    "It’s not often that one gets to hear music from a band that seems about to hit the big times. But if Air Traffic Controller’s latest track “20” — and their 400,000 monthly listeners — is any indication, then this genre-defying group seems poised to become a household name very soon." - Glasse Factory

    "Air Traffic Controller have served up a slice of pure genius with “20.”" - Up To Hear Music

    "Smart and sharp, upbeat and spry, the rising Boston band’s sophisticated songcraft helps their excellent fifth LP land in a sweet spot between indie-pop, rock and folk." - Tinnitist

    “20” is a breezy pop anthem, rooted in Munro’s unerring knack for catchy hooks and lived-in story-based lyricism paired with a lush arrangement featuring reverb-drenched guitar, funky horns and a dance floor friendly groove." - Joy of Violent Movement

    "I was gobsmacked the first moment I heard ATC years ago, and am even more enthralled by them and what they're capable of doing with their sound." - Music Box Pete

    While so much has changed, much has stayed the same when it comes to the quality of music and the creativity pouring out. (“20” is) a beautifully introspective reflection on the past. And while it keeps a storytelling structure that feels recognizably ATC, its catchy sound turns heads.-Nora Onanian, WERS

lyrics

I’m back home
We’re hanging in the living room
Our feet up on the couch alone at last
and it feels good
When I’m gone
I wonder what’s going on
in this room without me
in this house, this neighborhood

I found a picture of you and me before we met
You were dancing I was standing on my head

but if you asked me then where I’d be now
could I have told you I’d be in your house
If you asked me anything at all
would I have fallen? Fallen…

out on Lansdowne Street
my brother and his bride asked me
to come out to the show they had some extra tickets
and when you showed up
I really didn’t say that much
I was living with my girlfriend
yes I should have mentioned that

Later on our way
down the subway station steps
Taking different lines
we just waved goodbye and left

but if I asked you then where you’d be now
could you have told me you’d be in this house
If I asked you anything at all
would you have fallen? Fallen…

Fallen…

hard I know
Love is like a rabbit hole
Spend an awful lot of time
just trying to find our way back here
Right where we are
just hanging in the living room
our feet up on the couch
alone at last and it feels…
yeah it feels good

If you asked me then where I’d be now
If I asked you then where you’d be now
would you have fallen? Fallen…
would I have fallen? Fallen…
