ATR

**ATR** (Андрей Томский Рекордс) is a Russian electronic music project known for its gritty, synth-driven sound and darkly humorous take on modern culture. Emerging in the early 2000s, the group blends lo-fi production, post-punk influences, and satirical lyricism to create tracks that feel both nostalgic and unsettlingly relevant. Their music often critiques societal norms, consumerism, and the absurdities of digital-age life, delivered with a deadpan vocal style and DIY aesthetic. Recent releases like *Ponos TV*, *2020*, and *Дети солнца* (Children of the Sun) showcase their signature mix of pulsating rhythms, distorted synths, and bleakly poetic Russian-language storytelling. ATR’s work thrives in the shadows of underground electronica, resonating with listeners who crave music that’s as thought-provoking as it is danceable.
