Notes

"Panthalassa" marks a return to some of the most important recordings of Miles Davis' ionate and controversial "electric" period of the early 1970s. Conceived by producer Bill Laswell as a modern mix translation and reconstruction in sound, this unprecedented project features newly restored performances and never-before-heard extended themes from "In A Silent Way" (1969), "On The Corner" (1972) and "Get Up With It" (1974) - all taken from the original multitrack tapes.

Created at Greenpoint Studios, Brooklyn, NY
Mastered at Turtle Tone Studio, NYC

    This album works more like a "remix album" than a compilation, despite also being an actual compilation itself. These selected pieces from Miles' "Electric Era" kinda naturally flow seamlessly between each other, like they were always put this way, when the reality could've been far more different. I think it's a perfect companion album to those who only listened to "Bitches Brew" and want to adventure on this truly wild era regarding Miles' music, or even if you already have/listened to the original albums but just want to listen to a very well-made mix of themes that perfectly represents that specific period. Might not be an "essential" item in a collection, but definitely a very interesting one.

      This was the first time that anyone had attempted to remix the master on a full album release so Laswell had much to live up to. Did he pull it off? Hell yeah! It certainly helped that he chose some of Miles' finest work from from his fusion era. Wisely he decided not to tamper too much with the originals but rather use subtle electronics and rearrangements to create an album which distiled the essence of the music originally written over several years in to one amazing hour.
