Atari Teenage Riot was one of Berlin’s most incendiary groups during its late ’90s / early ’00s heyday. They took electronic music’s building blocks and gleefully deconstructed them, turning jungle into what frontman Alec Empire called “digital hardcore.” On this episode of Berlin Zwanzig – the first in the series – Vivian Host sits down with Empire to discuss how ATR’s “Revolution Action” came to be and why Berlin in the '90s felt a little bit like the end of the world.
