Album Notes

Anthony Milas grew up in the 80's listening to instrumental electronic & sample-based music, as a way to feel more "at home" in what felt to him like an alien world.

Unbreakable Foundation's "S" was programmed, performed, composed, mixed and mastered by Anthony in a New Zealand bedroom, using an 18 year-old midi keyboard, a computer, and a single piece of software.

The album is called "S" because all the track names begin with that letter - something that happened initially by chance before it was decided to rename a couple of tracks to make the pattern consistent across the album.

The cover image is an oil-painting of Anthony's partner, who when posing for artists often listens to an iPod unobtrusively pinned in her hair (to make sitting in the same position for several hours more endurable). Sydney-based artist Diane Hoath painted this profile of Hannah over six weeks, and in a not-so-typical move, painted in her iPod headphones as well.

Anthony is currently working on a number of musical projects, some of which you may hear, see and possibly touch and feel soon.

REVIEWS

Impressive, Relaxing Electronic CD
author: Chris and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team
“S” is the impressive instrumental electronic debut album from Unbreakable Foundation. Each track on “S” is connected by two things: firstly, the title of each track begins with the letter S, and secondly, each track makes you feel as though you are drifting far, far away to a place much superior to the place you were prior to putting the album on. Anthony Milas, the architect of Unbreakable Foundation, has created an excellent mood-setting album geared towards relaxation, introspection, and feeling calm and meditative, with enough organic elements to make you feel as though you are sitting atop a mountain. His musical approach gives a worldly feel similar to Gotan Project, but also incorporates ambience and driving beats reminiscent of Radiohead and Boards of Canada. Though “S” was recorded in Milas’ New Zealand home studio, the sound is crisp and fulfilling. “South For The Winter” makes the listener feel as if they are a migrant bird, alternating between a fast-paced, driving beat and a slowed-down, drifting sound, flying and resting. “Somethin’ Brewin’” incorporates a number of worldly instruments and has an overall Hindi flare to it. Overall, “S” is a solid debut from Unbreakable Foundation. Anyone who enjoys relaxing electronic music should definitely check “S” out.
