Uksimo previously known as Saam (real name Sam Vermeer) is a Techno DJ / Producer from Amsterdam. At age seven he started playing the guitar and quickly developed further musical interest. From this moment, he also began to produce his own tracks in Ableton Live. He produced his first Techno tracks in 2012, which led to multiple EP releases on labels like Wall Music (Mike Wall’s imprint). In 2015 he released his second album, also on the Berlin-based label Wall Music. In 2016 he signed 2 tracks at the Utrecht-based Dynamic Reflection. This eventually led to some interesting gigs at events like Soenda and clubs like Tresor (Berlin) and Paradiso.

In the pandemic he started to produce new music under “Uksimo” inspired by the more rhythmic side of techno. Uksimo’s music is is created by the use of his modular synthesizer, which allow him to create unique sounds and textures by patching together different modules. He also uses multiple drumcomputers to create the rhythmic elements.
