Atariame’s new album “Completeness” holds together echoes of transparent glitchy ambient, cracked digital noise and melancholic dreamy folk. These are the 8 songs about getting lost in the big limitless world and about finding harmony in chaos. Natalia worked on tracks during her travels: in a small town in Thailand, in the airport, in Moscow and Berlin, and traveling itself reflects the idea of constant search in her music. Completeness is both fragmentary and solid, full of space, yet inviting to sing along....

***

As I cleaned my temporary home on a quiet street in Weissensee in Berlin, I felt it. I felt complete. I had no other home anywhere in the world apart from that short term rent, yet I felt very secure. My home could as well be in any city on this planet, nearby the lake or in the trees. I am a substance, I float and fill any (un?) given shape. I may turn into anything, I am shapeless and changing. Completeness is my whole trust in the world and in myself, yet constant plasticity and liquidness.
