How it all began....


A corporate take-over followed by an unexpected re-structure meant, the now DJ, Neil Aldini, was facing redundancy - the push he needed to bring his concept, Aldini Music to you today.

Dedicated to one singular organisation for well over a decade, Neil now needed to focus within himself (not work) and during this time of self actualisation, Neil's natural talent boldly highlighted his true passion laid within music.

Neil's talents may never have been uncovered if it was not for a thoughtful Christmas gift of an "IDJ" by Numark that same year. By February, the dual IPOD "IDJ" simulating the role of a DJ was not enough and Neil personally developed his natural ear for beat mixing and sound utilising CD decks. Neil does not believe in modern day digital mixing where the computer not only mixes the tracks together for the user but tells them which tracks work best with others so, CD decks is as automated as he is willing to let technology aid his natural skills on the turntables.

Nothing makes Neil happier than to look up into a crowd in absolute hysteria, unable to stand still and understands this can only be reached through knowing what's hot right now and mixing this with diversity and flexibility, facilitating each set as it morphs into a masterpiece of audio heaven.Each set is considered by Neil as a journey and is fast becoming known for his originality, playing versions of tracks never heard before, causing such a stir some of Sydney's well known DJ's have been seen approaching Neil post a set, asking Neil to share the source of where certain track versions may be downloaded.

Residencies have been held at Jackson's on George - Sydney, Scruffy Murphy's - Sydney and regular guest appearances at The Marlborough Hotel - Sydney in addition to numerous pod casts held on local radio stations.

Internationally, Neil's resident radio set with EDM 1 Radio in Washington, PA & guest appearances on Muzo Phile in California.

Neil is building his profile in the Sydney Gay Scene during 2008, details of future events, more information on Neil and complimentary downloads of some of Neil's sets can be found throughout his site - www.neilaldini.com

Any Producers or DJ Remixers out there? This post is 4 U!

One of the world’s biggest DJs and producers, Germany’s Paul van Dyk, is looking for a talented producer to remix his track with Giuseppe Ottaviani, ‘Far Away’, on Beatport.
And for the very first time, the Beatportal community will have the chance to vote for the best submitted remixes. The remix competition is open to producers from all genres, as Paul van Dyk is looking for innovative, cutting-edge and thought-provoking mixes of his track.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
‘Far Away’, from the 2007 album ‘In Between’, is perfectly tailored for the dancefloor, and a great opportunity to create a new interpretation of the huge cut — never before available on Beatport. Van Dyk wanted to create this unique opportunity and to challenge production gurus and fans around the world. ”This remix opportunity is a first for a track from my catalogue”, says van Dyk. “And it’s a great chance to see where other creative minds within the Beatportal community can take this journey.” The Paul van Dyk remix contest operates in two phases; the first involves a submission period for remixes (from May 12th through June 2nd), and the second involves a voting period by users from within the Beatportal community (from June 3rd through June 23rd). As well as having their remix released on Paul van Dyk’s label Vandit Digital, the first place winner will also receive a Pacemaker, $100 in Beatport Credit, and a copy of Ableton Suite (including Ableton Live 7, Sampler, Operator, Electric, Analog, Tension, Drum Machines, Essential Instrument Collection 2 and Session Drums). And the second and third place runners-up will receive Ableton Live 7 and Ableton Live 7 LE, respectively, along with Beatport gear.
