Atlantis Rising
Atlantis Rising was the first Zazen album recorded entirely in the studio and was the first Zazen album to make use of some new advances in music technology, especially in drum machines.
“Like Samurai and Zen Master, it was a ‘recapitulation’ album, in which Rama and Zazen tried to recollect the essence of self discovery as we had practiced it together in past incarnations. Atlantis Rising evoked an era of lush forests and crystal domes, in which red-robed priests relaxed after a hard day of meditation and software development by climbing to the top of the flat-topped pyramids, closing their eyes and linking minds telepathically with their fellow priests and priestesses across an entire continent.” — Steve Kaplan
