their own biography
the whole biography
Aladag is a dreamer and a doer. For a long time his main focus was being a director, writer, and producer in the film industry. Bringing visions from the mind to the screen, has shaped a life centered around the process of creation. However, music has been a constant companion on his journey, from the earliest beginnings - starting to DJ at age 13 and producing at 14 - to co-writing and co-producing multiple German Gold and Platinum records, until today, where he awarded the musical muse the lead role in his life once again. He is also a river born from multiple confluences. His Turkish roots, him growing up in Stuttgart’s Hip-Hop scene and later finding a new home in Berlin’s Techno clubs, all within a family (both biological and chosen) which lives and breathes creativity, has blended a colorful tincture that is so clearly audible in his first release, the “Picture: Aladag” on Diynamic. Playing with opposites, crossing boundaries and searching within. A deeply introverted human who is daring to bring his emotions to light. For Aladag, music is a connector between souls and the hero of his journey.Their RA profile lists Diynamic Music.Last at Coco Boule in Apr · often with Le TIZI, Braunbeck, Fahlberg, none of them here that night

“Their gift for creating emotion through the synths and percussive instruments in their studio translates uniquely onto the dancefloor, where their slick, moving take on techno makes for a special kind of peak in the club.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Their gift for creating emotion through the synths and percussive instruments in their studio translates uniquely onto the dancefloor, where their slick, moving take on techno makes for a special kind of peak in the club. They draw from the psychedelic hooks of 1980s soundtracks and from modern dance music’s emphasis on sound design to create a distinctive and immensely powerful sound. In 2012 they recorded and released their first single ‘Cagliostro’ on breakthrough label Life and Death, following that up by essential collaborations with Tale Of Us and Somne for the same label and compilation appearances on Sven Vath’s Cocoon and Recondite’s label Plangent. Through a string of remixes, Mind Against leant their touch to the work of, amongst others, Art Department, Róisín Murphy and Green Velvet. More recently also for SHDW & Obscure Shape and Hakimonu, inspiring a remix EP of the latter’s “Insular Realms” through a masterstroke club edit. All the while, they have become consumate and globally in-demand DJs, dazzling at many of electronic music’s leading clubs and festivals. Their understanding of each other plays out in the dynamism of their joint DJ sets, where a refined selection and intricate mixing forms a journey like no other. Case in point: their revered Essential Mix from 2016. Mind Against’s discography has grown with standout releases for Tale Of Us’ Afterlife label and Scuba’s Hotflush, including further collaborations with Locked Groove and Aether. In 2018, they will return to the Afterlife label with a new EP and continue enchant the crowds they play for.Their RA profile lists Hotflush Recordings, Life and Death, Afterlife and Atlant.often with Umee Dee, Brian Thabault, Robag Wruhme, none of them here that night
