Atomati are a three-piece band from New York City, consisting of Lon Koontz (Vocals, Bass, Guitar), Danny Morrow (Guitar, Synths, Bass, Loops), and Milind Parate (Drums, Drum Machines, Beats). Charles Newman recorded Atomati’s eponymous debut EP at Motherwest Studios in 2006.
Atomati’s influences include U2, The Cure, Joy Division, Fugazi, Gang of Four, manchester + bollywood + electronica + “the 80s”… the list goes on.
Although the band consists of only three members, Atomati fills out their sound by utilizing digital as well as analog instruments. Danny grew an additional set of arms in order to play keys and guitar simultaneously while Milind added electronic percussion effects to layer the rhythms of each song. These steps have further refined and established a dance/new wave/post-punk sound.
Over the past two years, Atomati has been establishing a significant fan base playing shows in NYC at CBGBs, Arlenes Grocery, Siné, Don Hill’s, Parkside Lounge, LIT, and a few tiki bars. Recently, Atomati has been traveling outside of New York to support their new five song EP now available on iTunes and doing quite well.
