San Francisco Bay Area based electronic musician Rich
Brodsky, aka Atomic Skunk, will release a new album entitled
Alchemy on Earth Day, April 22, 2011. The album features 7
all new original tracks, including an epic drone piece, over
24 minutes in length entitled, "Temple of Stars." Alchemy is
Brodsky's third album, following on the heels of his first
two critically acclaimed releases, Binary Scenes and
Portal.

Atomic Skunk made a splash on the ambient electronic scene
in 2009 with the release of Binary Scenes, garnering high
praise from electronic music fans, bloggers and ambient
music stalwarts such as Hearts of Space producer, Stephen
Hill and Echoes Radio producer, John Dilberto, who described
the music as "note perfect ambient, full of mood, unusual
dreamstate shifts and psychedelic edges." Echoes Radio
listeners voted Binary Scenes one of the "Top 200 CDs of the
last 20 Years." Portal was a featured album on numerous,
legendary ambient music radio programs such as Hearts of
Space, Echoes Radio, SOMA FM, Musical Starstreams and
Radioio Ambient. Echoes Radio listeners voted it into the
Top 25 for the "2010 Best of Echoes Radio" listeners poll,
while the staff of Echoes Radio featured Portal as one of
their "25 Essential Echoes CDs for 2010."

Alchemy was funded entirely by Atomic Skunk fans through a
partnership with Pledge Music and like Portal was produced
as a gapless album. "I fell in love with the gapless album
listening experience while producing Portal and as I got
deeper into production on Alchemy, I began to sense how it
wanted to head in the same direction." says Rich Brodsky.
"In fact, as time went on, I began to see Alchemy almost as
a bookend to Portal. The tracks on Alchemy all flow very
seamlessly together and like Portal, take the listener on an
immersive journey, culminating with a 25 minute meditative
piece called, "Temple of Stars."
