Interviewer

Torsten Schmidt

A long-time music scribe for leading German club/pop culture gazettes and national newspapers, and one of the founding members of the Red Bull Music Academy crew, Tor has been around since before day one. He's rubbed shoulders on the couch with everyone from Bob Moog to A-Trak, and as if amassing a definitive collection of vintage synths and drum machines didn't show enough loyalty to the cause, he also keeps faith with notorious Bundesliga underdogs, 1. FC Kaiserslautern.
