Ep. 56: Constellation Plus - Arcane Atlas (feat. Rachel Brown)

Destin and Drew return after a long hiatus to share the album responsible for their absence from the mics of the favored prog rock podcast. In a delightful twist of roles, our typical hosts appear as members of Arcane Atlas to illuminate listeners about the significance of their most rent project, which was ten years in the making - Constellation Plus. Rachel Brown returns as a guest interviewer to prompt personal stories and perspectives about the album which many have described as a unique fusion of Pink Floyd and Rush. This offers listeners the chance to hear from the Destin-Drew duo as creators rather than reviewers as they explain the history, process, and purpose behind music that spans back to their teenage years. From album artwork to studio anecdotes to favorite songs, this episode sheds light on why this particular album has been foundational to the bond between the charismatic Prog Notes personalities.
