The Elements is a special edition Post Trip Hop album produced by Second Person for Sellaband.com and was released on 9 August 2007.
This is the follow-up to the band's debut album, Chromatography, and was written by Julia Johnson, Mark Maclaine and Álvaro López at their studio in West London, UK. This album contains an exclusive set of tracks written for "believers" on the online music community, Sellaband. Using the website, fans raised a total of $50,000 to fund the album and since Second Person were the first UK band to achieve this goal the project has gained a great deal of worldwide media attention.
In the latter stages of production the band were joined by legendary producer/engineer: Tony Platt who is best known for his work with Bob Marley, AC/DC and Iron Maiden amongst many others. A&R supervisor for this project was Adam Sieff (former Director of Jazz at Sony Music) and despite rumours of recording it in New York the band remained in London to record and mix the album at The London Recording Studios (formerly Sarm East Studios - Queen, Madonna, The Clash, INXS etc.) and The Way Studios respectively. The album was mastered by Ray Staff (Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Muse etc.) at Alchemy, Soho.
