Artist InformationBiography
Coming from Virginia, Atari Blitzkrieg has been recording and producing since 1995 but due to real life situations didn't release his first single until 2007. The Rokkonorrottenhell maxi-single featured hip-hop icon Royce Da 5'9, Groovie Mann from the industrial band My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and producer Krohme (Obie Trice, Kool G Rap). He has since released 9 EP's, is working on his 10th and has worked with major names in underground hip-hop, Rapper Pooh, Louis Logic, Vast Aire, LMNO, Roc C and Wildchild among others, rock and folk singers and indietronica bands.
He is working on 2 full-length albums as well as lending his production skills to artists signed to major and indie labels. He has also launched a sub-label, Sheltered Fallout Records under Godsendant Music that puts out releases of all genres. He recently designed a theme for the Playstation 3 and is working on completing a fictional movie score, he was also recently selected as one of Urb Magazine's Next 1000.
His lyrical content ranges from real-world issues (economy, poverty, war) to video games to fierce combative verbal barrages. He doesn't try to fit into any box, he just creates the music he want's to make.
In addition to his work as Atari, he is probably better known as the producer Krohme. Who has a strong following in underground hip-hop due to his work with hip-hop legends and icons, his large discography and his aggressive work ethic.
He also is the one-man show behind the indietronica group, Tracing Happiness and the industrial band, The Beautiful Chaos Project. Both projects will receive EP releases in 2009 and TBCP is currently in the process of scoring 2 video games. TBCP made it's debut in 2003 while doing the score for a low-budget indie horror film that never saw the light of day, but the score remains intact. Tracing Happiness is wrapping up an EP with several indie rockers contributing vocals, as well as appearances from Everclear, Luka Bloom, The Verve Pipe and more. Their melancholy tunes have also been attached to an upcoming untitled PC game.
I'm currently featured in the Member Spotlight section of Sonicbids.
