facebook | soundcloud | youtube | vi.be | got-djent | bandcamp ATMOSPHERES is AMBIENT DJENT from BELGIUM... ATMOSPHERES started out with Stef Exelmans creating something that brings two of his favorite genres together: progressive metal and ambient music. Late 2012, he began to write the basics of the songs with just a laptop and an 8string guitar. After a while it became clear that there was more to this music than just some demos for fun. As a good friend, Karoly Alapi joined the band as guitarist. He also shared the same passion in music as Stef did, so it was only natural that these two collaborated. Having worked together with Stef in the past, Stephan Noens joined ATMOSPHERES as a drummer. In this formation, they started to rehearse the songs Stef had written so far. After a while it became clear that the band needed a bassist to complete the setup. Musician and friend MattRach, who is known for his guitar playing videos on YouTube, tried out for the band as a bass player only once and joined in on that same day. By the time MattRach completed the ATMOSPHERES line-up, all the songs for the first release were finished. June 2013 they started recording. The complete process of recording, mixing and mastering was done by ATMOSPHERES. The main goal is to create something that sounds unique, yet accessible to any kind of listener. November 8th, they released the complete first album. In 2014 ATMOSPHERES will play on a stage near you! http://atmospheres.bandcamp.com https://www.facebook.com/atmospheres.music Read more on Last.fm.
