Atish Mehta

DJ, producer, label head and mentor. He built Slapback.

Atish has been DJing and producing for 16 years. He co-runs the label Manjumasi with Mark Slee and mentors emerging producers.

Before music took over, he spent a decade as a software engineer, including five years at Facebook working on early versions of Messenger.

He built Slapback because he gives and gets a lot of feedback, and wanted something that was actually useful.
