This is just a bit of useless pedantry, but wouldn't the album be more like the "molecule of music", with the song being the atom?

(That would make verse, chorus, bridge and refrain the "quarks of music", I guess.)

I assume OP means atomic in the “indivisible” sense, and so it doesn’t make sense to search for or listen to specific songs, etc, not in the “compositional” sense.
