About Me

The only member is Gilson C. Heitinga, who write’s, and produces all the music for ‘ATLANTIS’ . Gilson started to write songs under the name ‘ATLANTIS’ in de winter of 2005/2006. Under the influence of act’s like Massive Attack, Nine Inch Nails, Neurosis, Portishead, SWANS, Clint Mansell, etc,....the songs became more and more filmscore like, but with a undertone layerd with heavy guitars, noisy synth’s, samples and heavy drum programming. After a while Gilson teamed up with Field Records from the U.K. to release the first ‘ATLANTIS’ album titled ; “Carpe Omnium” This album is mostly instrumental and tells a story of a journey trough loss and decay. Live ‘ATLANTIS’ will sound diffrent than on the album with whole new incarnations of the songs. If you have the chance to visit a ‘ATLANTIS’ show, just sit back and enjoy the ride
