At Winter NAMM 2007, Gearwire's Rob Warmowski ran into Invisible Records founder Martin Atkins, who had just returned from a trip to China. For those not in the know, Atkins was involved in many of the most influential and well-known post-punk bands of the 80s and 90s including Public Image Limited, Killing Joke, Nine Inch Nails, and too many others to name here.

In the interview we learn Atkins has recorded some Chinese bands, some dirt on a new Pigface album, plus how many Starbucks there really are in China these days. All this and MUCH more can be found with our exclusive interview with Martin Atkins from the floor of Winter NAMM 2007. Learn all about what Atkins is up to, and what it's really like trying to use recording gear using the "unique" electrical system there.
