This week we're getting back to our roots with Madison Mars' interstellar journey 'Atom'!
This track oozes cinematic brilliance, from the trancey string lead to the gritty vocal bass, everything about Atom screams soundtrack. Picture this: you're about to go up against your nemesis (your boss, your annoying neighbour, your in-laws ...) and you need to get the adrenaline pumping: Atom will surely see you to Victory. It's dark in all the right places (highlighting our internal dichotomy, which is a big theme over here), with enough punch and power to push you through the inevitable fight scene and all of it's ups and downs.
Madison was one of the very first producers I started listening to when I got into future house, along with our old pal Tchami, and I've always been captivated by his subtle twists on sound design that lend to his unique sound. The world 'average' isn't in Madison's vocab: everything he releases is testament to the amount of work you know went into it, which isn't surprising since he's one of the hardest working producers out there!
So get ready to take another journey into the unknown, and take a break from the world for 3 transcendent minutes!

About the curator - Matt Jenko
Matt Jenko is a university postgraduate and music producer with an unhealthy obsession with Rick & Morty and all things Game of Thrones. When he’s not in the studio (a rare occurrence these days), he’s fueling his passion for music either on the net or out in the real world. He likes being out in the nature (in the least strenuous capacity though, let’s be real here) and chilling with his cat, and he’s also pretty proud of his mammoth collection of books that he’s never read.

Sometimes situations call for a total reassessment. Sometimes, ‘having faith’ and ‘staying the course’ become synonymous with getting yourself stuck in a big ol’ rut.

The thing about works borne of pure creative passion is that they tend to take a lot to complete. This doesn’t just mean they take a lot of time (although time certainly accounts for a lot of the taking), they also take a lot of focused mental energy. This is the real sacrifice we have to make for our art…
