Tobias Schmid was born in Schwabmünchen, a small town in southern Germany in the middle of the beautiful mountainscape of Bavaria. He started a regular night called „g-pissed“ with his friend Florian Hecker (Edition Mego/Rephlex) back in the days. His style was more and more formed by different kind of electronic influences, most of it Acid House and the minimal sounds of Basic Channel, Minimal Nation, Plus8 or Axis. In 2000 Tobias moved to Hamburg and immerged into the local electronic music scene. By that time he played at ARS Electronica/Linz, Kunstverein München and Zürich, Ultraschall, Tresor, Studio 672, Panoramabar, Watergate, Le Pulp, Batofar and Robert Johnson - while loving his residence nights at Golden Pudel Club and Tanzhalle St. Pauli. In 2001 he founded his project AUDISION with Niko Tzoukmanis. Beside their deep techno productions they remixed Lawrence and Tensnake. Together with Stefan Sieber he hosted the clubnight auto.matic.music and the open air venue auto.matic.OPEN.
