Aleix Vergés
Profile:
Aleix Vergés was one of the most important names of the Spanish indie pop scene at the beginning of the 90's as the leader of Peanut pie. But the band was dissolved after releasing its first work in 1996 and he changed his interests and started DJ'ing. He was the first resident DJ of Nitsa Club, the most legendary club of Barcelona. He used to do eclectic sets with all kinds of house, pop and electro but in the last years he has turned more into techno. He has performed mainly in Spain and Ireland, but also in Italy, UK or Japan. He has been in all editions of Sónar festival and also in many others like the Groove Parade. In 2003 he created his own label, Hit Kune Do.

What can I say about this guy? Well the only track produced by him I know, "When you see Kate", really sucks but when his hands touch the turntables... it blows your mind! His two compilations, "Darkhouz & Popotronic" and "Schizotronic & Techno" are amazing and perfectly mixed. I still can remember seeing him live at The Loft club (Barcelona). What a f*cking genious he is! What a great night! The Loft closes at 6:00AM so he finished at this hour. People started to clap... I had never seen a dj getting an ovation like that. He started clapping too, thanking the crowd. Then, he started mixing again for about twenty minutes, until the club staff forced him to put an end to the night. He really enjoys what he does and you can see this reflected in the music. I give him a 5/5 :)
