Atum
Atum was first introduced to psytrance in ’94 when he attended his first moontribe parties in Southern California. He fell in love with the music and the vibe that it brought to the people on the dance floor. Mesmerized by how the DJ’s seamlessly played track after track, he knew that was what he wanted to do. After meeting Dutch from San Francisco his dreams became reality. Dutch took the time to teach him what he needed to know to become a DJ.

In ’97, Atum moved back to his hometown of Dallas, and created Astral Tribe. They began doing monthly full moon events, and the scene began to flourish. In ’99 he moved to San Francisco and teamed up with Dutch. Dutch was working with a group called Thump Radio. Thump Radio did radio shows for electronic music and psytrance events. He and Dutch worked together promoting numerous events in the SF area including the infamous (((Thump))) event. It was at this monthly event that Atum got his chance to play music along side some of the best psytrance producers in the world.

While watching these producers actually creating music with their computers, he had found the next goal to accomplish in his music career. Thump Radio was growing rapidly, and by ’04 the radio side of things was too much work for their producer Mason. Mason began training Atum how to produce radio shows. He learned fast, and before he knew it was producing one of the #1 dance music shows that aired in Los Angeles. In 2010, Atum has taken all he has learned over the years and has teamed up with veteran psytrance producer and long time friend, Jirah. They have begun working well together and have formed the collaboration project known as Psymmetry and also founded AT Records.
