Trigger Event - Out Now On Impulsive Art

After we have released a couple of EPs for free and contributed to several compilations we are now publishing our first album titled “Trigger Event” which is released by the Greece label Impulsive Art. The album offers a selection of 11 tracks which we wrote and produced over the years. We kept some of them in our drawer because we thought they are worth to put them on our first album. The album offers a great retrospection of the way we produce our music and the sound we love.

“Trigger Event” includes remixes by Nikka from Spain and by Access To Arasaka from USA. Both of them did a great job and reinterpreted the tracks by backfilling these with their typical sound that we adore. We don’t want to forget to mention that “Trigger Event” comes in a nice Digipack CD desgined by FKSD. A special thanks to all.

Igloo Magazine [USA]

“…Each track featured on Trigger Event contrasts deeply industrial soundscapes, with synth lines and quiet melodies that allude to a softer emotional quality in music’s recent past…”

Connexion Bizarre [Spain]

“Danny Prusseit and Toni Polkowski prove themselves as masters in the field of IDM carving a niche with this latest release from Impulsive Art, “Trigger Event”, a release which sets the mood for waltzes through dark flickering hallways in a neon metropolis. This is the soundtrack for the modern cyberpunk fan…”

Wounds of the Earth [USA]

“After several free digital EPs, Atmogat returns with their full-length “Trigger Event”. The music on Trigger Event sounds like a natural progression from their last EP “Neutro Bionic”, as the listener is again presented with downtempo-yet-complex ambient idm with big atmospheres and hints of melody. Compositionally, this isn’t too different from previous Atmogat releases; it’s more clicks, buzzes, blips and beeps, but that’s all par for the course…”

Side Line [Belgien]

“Toni Polkowski and Danny Prusseit are the operators behind Atmogat. This German project has already released several EP’s and made some noticeable remixes. They’ve now just released their debut full length on the small, but interesting Impulsive Art. This label recently released the excellent “Thesis”-sampler, which I think is a must have for all lovers of intelligent electronic music…”

Gothtronic [Netherlands]

“Atmogat is a fairly new project, although they exist from somewhere around 2005. After some mp3 and EP releases and a decent amount of compilations, this is their first proper release. This is also the third cd release on the fairly new Greece label Impulsive Art, who also released the excellent debut album from IP Neva (‘Symbiosis Of Contradictions’). Atmogat promises to be very melodic and deep IDM, ambient and glitch, so expectations run high…”

Electronic Attack [Germany]

“Images of “Bladerunner” flicker in you mind when Toni Polkowski and Danny Prusseit pull you deep into imaginary hallways. Slowly creeping industrial loops and moody synthlines and ambiences lead through a digital, inhuman lanscape. Like Connexion Bizarre says “This is the soundtrack for the modern cyberpunk fan”…”

Norman Records [UK]

“Now for some solid, futuristic electronica/IDM. The type of which is becoming relatively rare these days, in terms of new releases. It’s a sound that I’m always interested in and these German producers do a fine job with their slightly tough industrial percussion. The production is crystal clear and the melodies hover nicely in the mix. It all sounds very digital and would definitely do the job chilling out late at night after a mental party…”

Medienkonverter [Germany]

“Die beiden Berliner Toni Polkowski und Danny Prusseit haben unter dem Namen Atmogat ca. 8 Jahre nach Gründung des Projekts und 4 Jahre nach Erscheinen ihrer ersten EP (der noch 7 weitere gefolgt sind) beim Impulsive Art-Label “endlich” ihr Debut-Album vorgelegt. Ihr Stil bewegte sich im Laufe der Zeit vom ursprünglichen Minimal Techno hin zu vertrackterem Beatwork und weitläufigerer Atmosphäre, wodurch sich “Trigger Event” den relativ unscharf umgrenzten Gefilden des IDM bzw. Electronica zuordnen lässt…”

Chroniques Electroniques [France]

“Si l’on en croit ce qui est inscrit sur leur myspace, Atmogat n’apprécie pas vraiment que l’on catalogue ou tente éperdument de décrire leur musique. On va donc prendre le minimum de risques. Chroniques électroniques a pour habitude de ménager les egos…”

alien e zine [Slovakia]

“Dalsou perlickou na momentalnej spicke greckeho IMPULSIVE ART je nemecke duo ATMOGATE, ktore uz svojim nazvom evokuje k atmosferickej brane a slusnym elektornickym konfrontaciam, ktore sa vlnia vo vodach idm. Prenikave rytmy doprevadzane plnymi basovymi linkami a syntetickymi blokmi…”

arrhythmia [Russia]

“К своему первому альбому немецкий дуэт Atmogat шёл ни много ни мало, а целых восемь лет. Группа появлялась на различных сборниках, издавалась на своём лейбле Trachanik Records, и, в конце концов, обосновалась на Impulsive Art. Музыку этих людей можно описать как даунтемповый idm с мрачноватой мелодикой и механистичной атмосферой. Звук в целом не перегружен деталями и в то же время является достаточно сложным. На мой взгляд, баланс здесь выверен очень точно, и вообще «Trigger Events» производит впечатление зрелой работы. Как хороший триллер, он держит вас в напряжении, волнует и слегка тревожит. Треки хоть и связаны какой-то общей тематикой, но каждый немного отличается от другого, каждый словно рассказывает свою небольшую сторию…”
