AJ..s music career began already at the age of 10.
First he learned piano which he did not continue because he felt bored. At that time electronic music was very young and AJ was fascinated by this art and absorbed anything of the like which was on the market. He was impressed by artists such as Kraftwerk and Depeche Mode. Also Jean Michel Jarre influenced him deeply.
In 1993 his friend Andy Style introduced him to Trance/Techno music. Andy organized gigs in the South of Germany and in Switzerland. Only 1 year later AJ thought about becoming a DJ because to his opinion a lot of sets were missing the special effect. So he bought his first turntables and quite a few vinyls.
In 1996 AJ organized his first gig near Zurich. Andy realized very quickly that AJ was talented and organized for him various gigs where AJ could make experiences. During the following years the two friends organized various gigs and toured different clubs and locations.
AJ became Resident DJ 2001 in the club TRON1X which is a famous underground club for approx. 500 ravers who can party here every Friday. Famous DJs like Gayle San, Chris Liebing, ICON, Andy Duex, Ellen Alien, Tall 2XLC and far more had their gigs in TRON1X.
Here AJ organized for approx. 2 years the COSMIC CONVENTION a well-known Trance & Techno gig.
In 2002 AJ built his own music studio and thus had time to realize his ideas of electronic music and produce own tracks.
He was also successful with his first track FIRST STEP. It was more than surprising for all DJs and ravers that the club TRON1X closed in 2003. On the other hand this meant for AJ that he had more time to concentrate on improving his productions and creating new tracks. He produced tracks such as BASSWAVE, LOVE ME & CHRISMAS TIME. These tracks are individual, absolute AJ that is simply and genuine AJ AKYRA style.
AJ is every minute in his studio working hard and producing tracks. He is an individualist who does that what he thinks is right. Anybody can share his thoughts and participate in his world of DJ sets and productions.
His sets are a perfect mixture of Trance & Techno. AJ however does not want to be categorized under a certain music art."I play what I feel. The differentiations in music should not exist and should be more in flow. Actually, everything is electronic music and we all want the same, the perfect symbiosis of music, ravers and DJ." We are looking forward to the future projects of AJ.
