Playing the Best in Electronic Dance Music
Specializing in:
Trance, Progressive, House, Electronica, Techno, and other Electronic Genres
Ali Mahmud grew up in the 80's and 90's listening to different types of music. He loved the 80's sound from artists like Duran Duran, Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, and others. In the 90's he listened to Nirvana, but started losing interest in music, but then he found classical music. Inspired by Beethoven and Mozart, he found new love in music. In 2000 music hadn't gotten any better, until a cousin turned him on to trance. He fell in love with the elements of trance, because it had everything he ever loved in music. The electronic sound, the classical elements, and emotional elements. He explored some artists in trance, and found Tiesto, Paul van dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Carl Cox, and Armin Van buuren. All of these artists have inspired him to pursue a career as a DJ.
He decided to become a DJ, so he can spread trance to others. Ali started mixing on his computer, and making mix CD's for his friends, but they were unprofessional. So after 6 years on the computer, he decided to invest in DJ equipment. After a long time of researching what equipment to buy, He bought 2 cdj 1000 mk3's, and a djm 800. He started practicing 4 hrs a night, and found help with a DJ in allentown named, DJ Wolf.
DJ Wolf had helped him get a residency at Gallery Billiard in Allentown, PA. He also encouraged Ali to make another Mix CD. After 3 months of recording and re-recording he created his first profession Mix CD. This CD was played on a internet and local Atlantic City radio show. The CD has gotten rave reviews from radio hosts, and DJ's alike.
Ali has been booked to be one of the opening acts for Jon O'Bir @ EDN in Philadelphia. Thanks for the help and support of Trance DJ/Producer Tom Colontonio. He is now working on future high profile gigs in Philadelphia.
Ali also has started work on his new mix CD. His goal at the moment is to try to grow as a DJ, and head into producing.
