Alex Alterskye - Label boss
From an early age Alex has had a huge interest in electronic music from the jacking sounds of Chicago through to Germanic tech house. Alex’s musical style has been heavily influenced by the burgeoning underground house scene in York, Leeds, and Hull (United Kingdom). Alex has been producing his own original productions for the last few years, he doesn’t like to pigeonhole his sound – it’s just house music that he likes to keep tracky, groovy and accessible but with a major underground edge. He has been a DJ for over 10 years and has also recently been awarded the runner up position in “International DJ” magazines raw talent DJ competition. Alex runs the new digital and vinyl label "Freche Fruchte recordings", and also runs the “Freche Fruchte” house podcast which is regularly in the top 50 house podcasts in Europe. When Alex is producing his tracks and DJing he works on the principle that people want to go out and dance, but they want to have their musical boundaries expanded with forward thinking underground tracks that really get the floor moving.
Nick has been DJing for about 10 years. Nick got his first break playing every week on York's pirate radio station KLFM, which led to one off guest spots in and around the York scene.
After DJing at another popular event in York called Widescreen, Nick played alongside another guest, Alex Alterskye. Before long the pair realized they had a similar style and it was from then that Nick was invited to become a resident at Alex's new night Random.
Moving from the small venue of the Little John in York to Judges Lodgings through to Victor J's the Random night firmly sits every month at Dusk. Now Nick and Alex play back to back bringing their unique music style to any night they have played at which includes Brass Monkey in Nottingham.
Whilst having simiilar influences to Alex, Nick’s other influences include Hugo, Worthy, Chris Duckenfield, Gorge, Jet Project, Sis, and Brett Johnson.
Also with an IDJ runner up award in his belt Nick's DJing style, that’s best described as a jackin techy spice of tribal house, is definitely worth a listen!
