    The funky, atmospheric, evocative and sometimes downright weird
    output of companies such as DeWolfe, Cavendish, Burton and the
    ubiquitous KPM have always been a guiding inspiration for ATA
    Records, as evidenced in the spooky soundtrack vision of The
    Sorcerers, the big band brass of The Yorkshire Film & Television
    Orchestra and even in the soul-jazz of The Lewis Express &
    Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble.

    It only seemed natural for the team at ATA Records to scratch their
    own Library itch and so "The Library Archive Vol. 1" was born in
    2019. Recorded over a series of sessions in the Aladdin’s Cave of
    vintage recording equipment that is ATA studios, it featured many of
    the ATA stable of performers.

    And so to "The Library Archive Vol. 3": taking heavy inspiration
    from Jungle Obsession 9 by Roger Roger, and The Feed-back,
    as well as Blaxploitation era composers such as Willie Hutch and
    Melvin Van Peebles, and the masterful and ingenious Roy Budd,
    "The Library Archive Vol. 3" draws deeply from the well of library
    greatness.

    Each track has been lovingly crafted with a keen ear for authenticity
    and the same eye for detail shown on 'The Library Archive’ Vol. 1
    & 2, recorded on the same instruments and equipment and with the
    same techniques as the music that inspired it, with a focus
    throughout on stripped-back rhythm sections topped by flute,
    vibes and vintage synths.
