Organic Electronic Space Music for the Heart, Mind and Soul
“Binary Scenes” is the debut release by San Francisco Bay Area electronic artist, Atomic Skunk. Atomic Skunk’s music features “artful melodies with cinematic moodiness” and has been described as “Very meditative” and “Zen-like” with some “chaotic and dark elements/rhythms.” The album, Binary Scenes was recorded entirely with Ableton Live in Marin County, California and features 8 fresh and original tracks that “force a headspace of chill and peacefulness.” “Binary Scenes” is available now for streaming and online purchase in a wide variety of high quality formats at http://www.atomicskunk.com.
San Francisco Bay Area based electronic musician, Rich Brodsky aka Atomic Skunk, weaves together ambient field recordings, lush pads, and organic acoustic instruments with high-tech arpeggiated synths, glitchy, chaotic rhythms, and haunting melodies to create a unique psychedelic ambient soundscape.
Although he played in traditional western rock bands for many years, Rich has always leaned towards the deconstruction of traditional forms. He has studied non-western music such as Indonesian Gamelan, Indian Ragas, and African drumming and counts these along with ambient artists, The Orb and The Future Sound of London as well as the legendary Hearts of Space radio show as some of his strongest influences.
In 2008, Rich began composing and recording his own ambient electronic music, using an amazing piece of software called Ableton Live. Live’s non-linear approach to music composition opened up a world of creative possibilities that led to the first Atomic Skunk creations. In early 2009, Rich released his first eight compositions as Atomic Skunk for his debut album, Binary Scenes.
