DESCRIPTION:
SubAtomic is an ELECTRONIC FUSION QUINTET, hailing from Portland, Oregon. Our sonic style evoled through improvising and experimentation with our creative ideas. Deryk Dement plays drums, everything from tasty mellow jazz to heavy duty breakbeat that will make you shake your ass. DD has played with DJ Disk and Tricky and pushes the envelope of modern groove. Dave Binnig plays trumpet into effects pedals creating on-the-fly loops that weave a smooth ambient texture and will carry you through space and time. Joel Barber provides heady vocal samples and sound effects via turntable and laptop. JB is half of Portland's electronic duo Surrounded by Ninjas. Filling out the low-end frequency is Dr. Ruff on electric bass and custom midi rig. Brooks Foster is the newest player, with real jazz chops and an arsenal of saxophones. SubAtomic is taking a non-traditional approach to danceable music, fusing styles and crossing genre boundaries while maintaining a groove that will keep your head bobbing and your feet moving.
