This week’s band: Atomica

3 March 2008 Send To a Friend

This week's band is AtomicaI was turned on to this week’s band by Insomnia Radio Chicago. She knew I liked Section 4, so she suggested I check out Atomica.

From the band: “The Atomica Project is a union of downtempo beats and stunning female vocals, amplified by an organic warmth generally absent from electronic music. Devised by programmer/songwriter Wade Alin, the writing for The Atomica Projects debut album, Metropolitan, is heavily influenced by his experiences living in New York and by the tone of the city.

After relocating to Chicago, Alin began to execute his vision for The Atomica Project and was fortunate enough to happen upon evocative vocalist Lauren Cheatham. Together they began recording the preliminary tracks for Metropolitan, ultimately adding keyboardist Percy Trayanov and drummer Rey Guajardo to the mix.”

They’ll be at Darkroom on March 23 for a free show with “Two Loons For Tea” and “Emulsion”. Their CD release party for “Grayscale” will be at the same spot on May 23.
