Sun Rain is the moniker of the Canadian musician, composer and producer, Chad Skinner. Delving into the realms of ambient, electronic, and neoclassical music, Skinner has produced a body of work celebrated for its serene, immersive soundscapes and intricate compositions. With a penchant for textured layers, Sun Rain’s music often reflects a tapestry of organic and synthesized elements, delivering an emotive fusion that invites contemplation and introspection.

Throughout Sun Rain's discography, one can trace a consistent pursuit of tranquility juxtaposed with nuanced emotional depth. Releases like "Fog Dance" and "Ideas Of Light" epitomize this exploration, weaved with ambient sound constructions that shimmer with a calming effervescence. Meanwhile, tracks such as "Pebble / Waters" and "Ma" showcase Skinner's versatility, integrating elements of minimalism and modern classical undercurrents. His creative re-imaginings, as seen in "Willow Tree Testing (Animal Party Remix)" and "Woods (Sun Rain Remix)," demonstrate his ability to reinterpret existing compositions with a distinctively reflective and textured approach.
