If there is another species somewhere else in the Universe, with a completely different society and completely different brains, then it is very possible that they do not see the world as consisting of atoms; they might have a completely different model that still gives accurate practical predictions.

In any case, I do not think "fundamental" properties of the world exist on their own; they need a thinking observer to be categorized as such.
