NaJ builds the music up by selecting tracks of increasingly complex rhythms. The result is a set that evolves and takes the listener on a journey. The feel of the set changes about 5 tracks in, which I categorize as the “development” section of the set (I will post an article on my new mixset theory in the next couple of days). In this set, the change in feel runs for a single track. NaJ then returns briefly to the earlier sound while revisiting the change of feel with tracks which have a funkier rhythm. The set concludes with the funky Casheesh-Kinky Movement.

Alex started working and experimenting with electronic music at the age of 15 using computer sequencers and various synthesizers and not long before started producing Goa trance which was very popular in Israel at that time.
During that time worked as a midi/computer recording technician in various recording studios to get as much exposure as possible to the music production process.
Released some Goa trance tracks on some local labels and collaborated with various trance artists.
After couple of years his music interest shifted to Techno and after a long trip to Europe where he picked up more influence(from labels such as Luxus) started to DJ in various clubs around Israel,Germany and Thailand under the DJ Astronix name.
While playing a regular show at the local ,pirate and somewhat legendary radio station named Periscope in Jerusalem met a local House DJ and together established a vinyl shop 12 inch Junkies in order to bring more quality Techno and House influence to the city of Jerusalem but due to the lack of time and the desire to write music they have decided to close the shop and form a House duo which they named Decolt’e.
Decolt’e has signed a record deal with a Chicago based label Bumpin city but the music was never released due to label’s financial problems,in spite of interest from the local labels Decolt’e split in 2001 due to Alex’s decision to move to Japan where in 2002 he got married and live there ever since.
Alex has continued to work on his house sound and improving his production skills in Japan and in 2005 began producing music again under Alex Einz name. This latest music has been well received between local DJ’s and some tracks made it to DJ’s top charts and played by DJ’s such as Mike Mckenna[Disco Science](Voted DJ number 1 in Japan by Loud magazine).

Here Rob provides us 2 more well crafted mixsets. The first contains the nicest disco sounds that currently circulate dance floors around the world. Its not possible to listen to this music and not have your mood lifted up. It makes you feel good. The second set here is a perfect follow on from set 1 as it contains a harder sound and is aptly titled “Twisted Disco House”, borrowing from the language of Hed Kandi.
Thanks Rob.

Audiodreams went very well last week as we returned to Level 5. We brought in a range of classic arcade games to provide an extra feature to the night. The crowd was high quality and the night was enjoyed by all.

I’m really happy to have this set up here, as it is a nice contrast to some of the more electro and disco styles of house we’ve had recently. Its all good, and its nice to continue to have all genres of house represented. Enjoy…
