Tri Atma Biography
Founded in 1977 by German guitarist Jens Fischer and Indian tabla player Asim Saha, Tri Atma specializes in fusing Eastern musical elements with Western electronic pop. In 1982, the duo met Klaus Netzle, a veteran German record and television producer who brought the space-age sounds of the Fairlight and Synclavier computer synthesizers to their music. ~ Linda Kohanov, All Music Guide
