Multidisciplinary producer, designer, and 3D artist Raynor de Groot serves up Future Static, his debut full-length on Atomnation as Coloray. More than simply a collection of music, the record will be presented in an all-new virtual space where each track is a portal to a different world. Dutchman de Groot has proven himself as an accomplished conceptual artist who draws together many different creative fields. He has released everything from lush synth-pop to deep techno, and has real songwriting ability. 2019's "Can't Stop" in collaboration with Eagles & Butterflies proved that as it crossed over multiple scenes and became one of 2019's standout tracks thanks to support from heavy hitters as diverse as Hunee and Four Tet. Âme & Dixon have also regularly supported Coloray's music and asked him to release "Gazing Eyes" on their Innervisions label. Two years after his Real Life Cinema EP on Atomnation, Future Static finds de Groot opening a new chapter that explores a more conceptual sound. The album "translates the concept of man and computer creating a new reality where logic and emotion seems to be at odds with one another." Its 12 tracks have club-ready grooves, but also exquisite synth designs that are edgy and up-tempo. They will be translated to a live show and interactive music experience in VR, on your phone and desktop. In the show, online visitors will be able to get lost inside the mind of an AI and watch and interact with a Coloray performance. Presented with an artfully designed gatefold sleeve, Future Static is a groundbreaking project from Coloray that pushes creative boundaries while offering an immersive listening experience.

Sau Poler makes his return to Atomnation with Nocturno, a debut album that finds him pushing himself beyond his usual confines. The nine immersive, meticulously crafted tracks arrive in Spring 2021 and come with original artwork by New York artist Jane Dickson. Sau Poler is part of a so-called golden generation of Spanish producers alongside the likes of Pional, John Talabot, and Bawrut. He has put out three EPs on this label before landing on others such as Mule Musiq, Modern Obscure Music, and Fort Romeau's Cin Cin, where he honed his organic house, techno and ambient fusions. They're often bright but obscure, intimate and contemporary, with taut samples and shuffling beats that manage to be leftfield as well as nostalgic, and have had support from the likes of Kelly Lee Owens and Dixon. All that also plays out in his DJ sets which have taken him all over Europe to the likes of DGTL and Sonar. This new album was recorded between 2018 and 2020 in Poler's studio in Badalona. Two years of experimentation, expanding his methods of composition and moving out of his comfort zone eventually led to the concept of Nocturno. It's an album that draws on those special late-night feelings: introspective sounds, a middle ground between lightness and dark, euphoria and loneliness. It means the music is often hypnotic and mystic, with references to the conceptual movies, sonic obscurities and the video games of his youth. Two pieces of gear were also key to shape that sound: the Roland JD800 synth and the Roland Chorus Echo-301 tape delay, which help lend the whole thing a cohesive, immersive feel, with some first ever uses of an electric guitar and trumpet also adding further color and emotion.

Sam Goku returns to Atomnation with a stunning debut album titled East Dimensional Riddims. The 11 tracks record is a journey into his hugely characterful club sound complete with ambient and subtle use of instruments from his Chinese heritage. Sam Goku -- born Robin Wang -- was born in Düsseldorf, yet his upbringing was Chinese for the most part. It is the contrasting influences of those two cultural backgrounds that play out in his music and lend it a truly unique character. The album is a fine fusion of East and West, house and techno, power and emotion that really showcases the unique production talents of Sam Goku. Following up on the EPs Tanggu, Every Step, and Paradise Drum, this new album is the sound of an artist evolving, maturing and finding his own sound. It's a cohesive work that is as emotional as it is physical and thought provoking.

Gidge -- the Swedish duo consisting of Ludvig Stolterman and Jonatan Nilsson -- return with their new album, New Light. Marking their fifth release on Atomnation, this album can be seen as their second full-length album to date, following up 2014's mythical Autumn Bells (ATMV 023LP). Gidge makes electronic music that is shaped by recordings of Swedish nature. It's both comfortable on the dancefloor and in a more relaxing environment. Each and every Gidge track creates its own sense of atmosphere and emotion, whether that is nostalgia, rest, or epicness. Their work evolves naturally, often building to powerful peaks from a silent break that is tweaked with vocal samples, crackles of field recordings, and neo-classical influences. New Light features nine new tracks where Gidge worked on for about three years long. The album is signature for people that are familiar with the music from Gidge, yet, it can be seen as their most eclectic work to date. Ludvig and Jonatan refined the production technique on their new album by intensifying the sound palette with analog synthesis and crispy hi-hats. The track "Perimeter" might be the perfect example of this -- spanning over exactly ten minutes, the intensity of the synths in combination with the sharp hats throughout are absolutely fire. While often being adored by the inspiration that is drawn from the forest, nature, and the Norrlands of Sweden (and rightly so), the music of Gidge has actually been of an absolute international caliber and is listened to by people from all over the world. Gidge sold out club-tour shows in London, Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, and Stockholm, and played their live-set to crowds on festivals in Mexico, Georgia, Canada, and Thailand. Pitchfork staffers chose Gidge amongst their favorite artists to listen to on snowy days and XLR8R readers voted Gidge to the #1 spot of "best new electronic act" in 2015. The list goes on... Rooted in the city of Umea, Sweden, Jonatan Nilsson and Ludvig Stolterman became friends through a shared love of electronic music. Includes printed inners.

Pascal Terstappen, aka Applescal, has released his new artist album, Diamond Skies on Atomnation. The nine-tracker is a collection of expertly-produced, instrumental melodic house with lush, ambient soundscapes and a nod to the analog sounds of the '90s. The album has received heavy support from key names in underground electronic music community and is Applescal's sixth studio album to date. Terstappen has been running Atomnation full-time since his early twenties and has shaped it into one of The Netherlands' leading independent labels and a home for an eclectic mix of electronic music including signed artists such as Gidge, Polynation, Tunnelvisions, and Sam Goku. Diamond Skies exemplifies the vibrant sound of Atomnation, a lush, colorful album which journeys through melody, ambience, and emotion while offering an occasional surprise to the senses. The album was written and produced through 2019 and completed in the early days of March 2020 when dark skies were looming. Diamond Skies represents a creative optimism and brings a sense of something to look forward to. Applescal has created a musical dreamworld for a listener to step into as an antidote to troubled times. Diamond Skies is an album which feels uplifting and effortless, a confluence of melodic house, occasional breakbeat, and ambient energy; the sound of a producer at the height of his powers.

This is essential material for people that play between 116 and 121 beats per minute.

"A work of searching, and in many moments, finding" Maggie Thornton as Sky Civilian is set to release her second EP via Atomnation: At the Seams. It's a stepping stone, from the lyrical, gentle, genre-agnostic electronica of Open Door (ATMV 065LP), to Maggie's own rounded and angelic take on acid-house. Maggie's cinematic, synth-heavy style emerged after a decade of orchestral French horn playing and classical studies. She combines this brass-inspired, synth-forward approach with her weightless, almost-whispered vocals, and dancefloor ready beats. The melding of influences present in her work make Maggie a fresh and promising new artist in the electronic music scene, an artist we hope to hear more from for many years to come.

Tunnelvisions (Raynor de Groot and Emiel van den Dungen) originated from a shared vision of contemporary club music. They believe that the club scene -- that is often focusing on a colder, abstract high-tempo sound -- needs to go back to a more organic approach. It's one of the goals of their newly created Tunnelvisions project: "We aim to bring back the fun to the dancefloor again". This vision brought the two musicians together -- through hypnotic, exotic and grooving productions they tend to offer something new. In the studio, Tunnelvisions combines elements from South American, Caribbean, and African sounds. With a background in house, techno, and pop, they've created a nine-track double-LP that takes you to different places in the world. Each track title is based on a river or desert. "Guava", for example, is a Jamaican river: "This song is a sort of naive interpretation of reggae, pop and club music". Tunnelvisions already performed at the legendary Melt Festival, Georgie's Wundergarten, and various festivals in the southern parts of The Netherlands, the place where Emiel and Raynor are currently based. Double-LP comes in gatefold sleeve.

Santa Fe, New Mexico based artist Maggie Thornton, aka Sky Civilian, joins Atomnation and releases Open Door. The productions from Sky Civilian evoke a lust for the future and the far-away, but she grounds this lofty mood in familiar territory, with nostalgic, detuned synth instrumentation and four-on-the-floor percussion. Her weightless, almost-whispered vocals capture a hyper-natural feeling. The overall lyrical message is one of raw sincerity, as listeners confront unmistakable themes of loss and longing. Strange yet playful vocal production techniques grant the work a subtle pop tilt.

One of the most beautiful albums of the 2010s gets a reissue on double-vinyl -- in 2014 the Swedish duo Gidge released their debut: Autumn Bells.
"The very beginning of 'I Fell In Love' are the most passionate and emotional couple of notes I have heard."
"An incredibly organic listen from start to finish, Autumn Bells is the season's distilled feeling put in song. Gidge successfully captures microscopic moments of decay and beauty within the framework of pop and ambient-inflected techno."
"An utterly captivating piece of work. Each new listen only enriches the songs."
"One of the finest, most enjoyable electronic albums I have heard in recent times. Every sound is so well thought out and sculpted, some seriously head-tingling music."
