Adam Partridge has been producing music under Atropolis with Ableton Live for over 10 years. With releases on various international indie labels, Atropolis has also co-produced music for Mel Chin’s art exhibition at the Queen’s Museum; and scored an art installation, Migrant Scape, featured in New York City’s The Shed.  His music fuses a wide range of international styles mixed with contemporary forms of electronic music.  A remix Atropolis and Jeremy Sole produced for Dom La Nena, Batuque, is a sound example of this fusion. Licensed in the Starz Network show, Power, this remix blends traditional Brazilian folk with trap and juke rhythms.
