About

Otherend is the official project for ambient-electronic music and soundscapes by Micah Ethan Atwell and collaborative artists.

Traversing the expanse between minimalist and melodic, ethereal and uptempo, Otherend conjures moods and imagery from subtly dark and edgy, to wistful and romantic.

Otherend also features the music and revamped artwork from Micah's debut album Temple of Unmanifest Dreams (now titled Unmanifest) as well as some previously uncompiled works.

Unmanifest (Domesday Spring Edit) features the title track from the Unmanifest album paired with hypnotic churning visuals of an ancient natural spring, first documented nearly 1,000 years ago in the Domesday Book. Filmed on location at Chithurst Manor, England, this video reimagines the album's premise of the unmanifest and the search for the origin of creativity.

Io Sun, Otherend's live ambient-space soundscape, has a spectactular new HD video inspired by the Jovian system. The video was assembled from various animations and still images created by the NASA Juno and New Horizons missions.

Unmanifest is Otherend's re-release of Micah Atwell's 2008 debut concept album, Temple of Unmanifest Dreams. This album is an adventurous and meditative ambient-electronic guitar odyssey like you've never experienced, taking you on an enigmatic search for the origin of creativity and returning you more peaceful, rejuvenated, and inspired. Recorded almost entirely with guitar, Unmanifest is an astounding testament to what a guitar can convey!
