Ghost Atlas is the melodic alt-rock side project from Jesse Cash of ERRA. An intensely personal project, every conceptual part of Ghost Atlas’ music, lyrics, and visuals is an intentional outpouring of Jesse’s mind.
Jesse has teamed up with UNFD for the release of highly-anticipated new album ‘Dust Of The Human Shape’, released January 26, 2024.
“My goal when starting the instrumental for Lesser Gods was to commit to a singular chord progression and maintain it throughout the entire song,” says Jesse of today’s new single. “I play with this idea on a few songs on the record. It just keeps your ear very locked into the vibe while challenging me to find other creative ways to introduce dynamic. In the case of this song, the most notable means is the time signature change in the bridge, when the rhythm progression switches to 7 beats per bar. It’s a little bit of trick I’m playing on the ear to bring some technicality and tension into the song. While the timing changes, the chord progression remains exactly the same to alleviate the change feeling forceful or distracting.”
