Biography
Deejay and producer NDKj, also known as Andrea Quirico was born in 1981 in Novara (Italy). He became fascinated with electronical music – especially techno – at a young age and soon started spinning records himself. His first DJ appearance was in 1998 when he played in some smaller clubs and private parties in the North of Italy. At that time his sound was inspired by some of the big names in techno scenes who were known for playing hard, but groovy techno.
But just djing did not seem to be enough and so NDKj, insired by his own beliefs and feelings concerning techno music, started producing and experimenting with new sounds. In 2004 he met a fellow Italian deejay: Mauro Alpha and they decided to work together – and they still do today. NDKj’s first production “Dark Ages” was released in February 2006 on the label Holzplatten (HOLZ082) together with Drumcomplex and Chris Binder. Only three months later his first collaboration with Mauro Alpha was out on the Boxer Sport label: “Pallette” (Boxer039).
In the summer of 2006, he also got to know Oliver Lieb and became an artist of his label Maschine. NDKj’s first EP, called “Put it where you ant” (MAS10), was just released by the end of November. At the same time, NDKj, Mauro Alpha and the Italian deejay and producer Andrea Paganin founded “The Dust Soldiers” – of which the first release hit the shelves in March 2007.
