Uwe Schmidt (aka Atom, Senor Coconut; born 1968 in Frankfurt, West Germany) is a German DJ and producer of electronic music. Schmidt produced dance music during the 90s under a number of monikers including Atom Heart. he decided to move to Santiago, Chile to explore Latin music. He quickly adopted the intentionally ridiculous Senor Coconut moniker, and soon released El Gran Baile, finding time afterwards to do a little remix work for Towa Tei, formerly of the multi-national Deee-Lite. His next release, in 2000, was the Latin-Kraftwerk fusion of El Baile Alemán. The album featured several Kraftwerk classics reworked with Latin instrumentation and rhythm. El Baile Alemán was intended as a salute to, and a parody of Kraftwerk as evidenced by the intro to "Autobahn" which featured the sound of a car that wouldn't start. The album was credited to Senor Coconut y Su Conjunto, but the album was entirely the work of Schmidt on synthesizers and samplers, with the aid of three vocalists.
