AIR 011 / Atom TM

Hello and welcome back! The eleventh instalment of AIR welcomes German born, Chile based producer and live performer Uwe Schmidt, better known as @Atom_TM. Having produced under dozens of aliases over a career that spans more than three decades, Atom is one of those rare artists that truly cannot be pinned down. His work has touched on techno, acid, IDM, electrolatino, and experimental, and anyone familiar with his massive catalog of releases knows how crucial a role his music has played. In this conversation, we delve into how he works with memory, the role of his archive of sounds, and the musical significance of past, present, and future. Apologies for the sound quality on this one guys, my mic broke upon arrival so we were forced to use a handheld recorder! +++ Audio treatment by Airlock Audio Music: "He110" - Atom TM (2004)
