About Me


Atimatik (pronounced like "autimatic") started his music career over a decade ago as a bassist for a Bay Area punk band. While on tour, he learned how to keep his audience energized by performing and learning from some of the most notorious punk acts.
During the mid-90's, he experienced SF's underground electronic music scene when he decided to grab a pair of decks of his own. Atimatik picked up the art of DJing fast and began rocking house parties all across the Bay Area. Then, word of mouth began to spread.
Since then, Atimatik has been seen spinning at the pre-eminent venues and parties all over the West Coast, including Loveparade/Lovefest SF every year, Fahrenheit, 1015, Crash, Vivid, Temple, SupperClub, Angels, Groove Cruise LA & Miami, Mezzanine, Ruby Skye, Opulent Temple Camp at Burning Man, Las Vegas, Winter Music Conference and many others. Atimatik has landed several residencies such as the number one West Coast venue, Ruby Skye, and nationally recognized Aura Nightclub. Atimatik has rocked parties with the best, such as DJ Dan, Donald Glaude, Paul Oakenfold, Dylan Rhymes, D:Fuse, Terry Mullan, DJ AM, Z-Trip, Bassbin Twins, Crystal Method, Rogue Element, Gabriel & Dresden, Ferry Corsten, DJ Icey, Charles Feelgood, Bassnectar, and too many more to list.
In 2005, Atimatik became "Breakbeat Champion" on DJForums.com, winning the final round of a series of mix submissions that got put against other DJs in the same genre. In 2006, Atimatik became the top 14 DJ for the Nitevibe Dreamteam poll in the Bay Area (highest number of DJs per capita anywhere in the world). In November of 2007, breakbeat/electro veterans Mephisto Odyssey released "Sexy Love" on Beatport and iTunes which featured Atimatik. Atimatik is currently working on his own releases that will be coming out on iTunes and Beatport in the coming months.
Atimatik is currently one of the highest demanded DJs in the Bay Area with a sound all his own. His sets are known for having big bass-lines on top of dirty house, electro & breaks; which inevitably have the crowds throwing their hands in the air. Although you can still find Atimatik playing bass, his primary project remains spinning in front of frantic crowds with his unique, floor pumping style.
