Alex Dimitri (Italy)
DJ/Producer / Remixer
Music Style: Sexy, Deep and Soulful
House
It can be said of Alexander Dimitri,
that he creates an ambiance that makes a lasting impression
– always leaving the crowd wanting more. And
when it’s all said and done, as the lights go on at
the end of the night, the club-heads are rest-assured to still
feel his vibe ringing in their ears as they drift off to sleep
with a smile.
Alex started out as a disc jockey when he was just
14 years old – playing for his peers at various
events. It was at that age that he got a taste of the style
of music that he truly loved - Garage and Soulful House –
and it was at that period of time he became aware of what
he was destined to do. His home town where he would give command
performances at numerous “Hot Spots”.
In 1999, Alex decided to relocate to Rome
because he was given an opportunity to headline at
such clubs as Mountgay, with the ever-popular DJ Luis Radio.
Born in Brindisi, Italy, which is located in the “boot”
of Italy, Alex spent many years perfecting his craft and becoming
a celebrity of sorts in from Equal REC, Classico Village,
Saponeria (where he had a two year residency every Saturday),
Download, Alien, The Woodoo Bar, Villa Coesia, Tatoo, Happening
and a host of many others. He also had the honor of receiving
invitations to do gigs at the famous G Lounge in Venice and
the Club House in Reggio Calabria. Over the past decade, Alex
has had the good fortune to perform in some of the most elite
venues in Italy and has been invited to be a part of some
highly acclaimed events such as the Elements of Life Live
Concert that featured Blaze, David Mancuso, Dofmaister and
many others.
In 2002, Alex decided to move back to Brindisi,
where he played for an array of new clubs like Tribeka,
SoundClub, Firenight, Vertigo, Menhir, Torre Regina and Le
Corniche – continuing his beloved profession.
It wasn’t until several years later that he decided
to get into the producing and remixing aspect
of the music field, thereby broadening his horizons and taking
his talent to a new level – as many of our top DJs have
done.
This year has promised Alex’s breakthrough.
He remixed the vocals of none other than the incomparable
SuSu Bobien – creating a masterpiece that was selected
out of hundreds of spec mixes which were submitted to the
label, Soundmen on Wax, Ltd., for the Set Free Project. His
mix has been released in the United States and overseas and
can also be found on Traxsource.com. “I’m
very excited with my new found relationship with Soundmen
on Wax – they are opening many doors for me and I look
forward to many new prospects.”
One of his earlier remix productions in 2006 was
with keyboardist extraordinaire Dieghito and lead singer Kika
called “The Italian Style EP” which introduced
the single “Look at You” – also
available on Traxsource.com and has received numerous
accolades in each evaluation from various magazines and DJ’s
alike.
Though Alex is busy remixing and producing – he still
remains true to his roots and spinned at Bobbi &
Steve’s party in Miami at the Winter Music Conference
2007 – which in itself is a huge honor. Other
DJ’s include Ron Carroll – who is an inspiration
of Alex’s as well as Tony Humphries. In addition to
Alex’s hectic schedule, he entered Gotta Keep Faith
Records’ remix contest (submissions ended February 15,
2007) and placed in the top five for consideration of a future
single release on GKF Records entitled “The First Time.”
Also, aside from being the new resident DJ at MAVU, that
featured other guest DJ's like Louis Vega, Alex will be and
branching out to different towns and cities all over the country.
As of late, his remixing and productions are picking up with
respect to the rework of Mr. Fuzz’ “First Time”
on GKF Records; NYC Peech Boys on Soundmen on Wax Records;
and currently “As” by the legendary Michael Watford
also on Soundmen on Wax Records.
With the many blessed opportunities that have arisen
and the many more promised – Alex Dimitri is coming
up – and is a fresh talent to watch out for!!!
