Style

Their styles are world and contemporary music combined with the classical forms of jazz improvisation as well as experiments with folk and ethnic motives of the world. The creative path of Atmasfera started from an art-rock style. The modern west tendencies are organically added by ancient east motives and enriched by unique Ukrainian colouring.

The Name

Their title contains two words in Sanskrit: “atma” which means “personality” and “sfera” is something that surrounds it. In general the name describes something that surrounds the personality, its external and internal world, as well as feelings. So, the Sanskrit: Atmasfera is the etymological root of the English word: atmosphere.

From 2013, Atmasfera implements an interactive project called "Mantra Diving", where the listener has the opportunity to engage in a creative activity and fully express emotions by together the musicians singing mantras in Sanskrit.
