The NY based DJ/producer duo of Alex Arzeno and Ali Kay AKA Digital Duo started working together in February of 2001.
Alex' history goes back to 1987 in Miami where he played alongside the likes of Danny Tenaglia and produced a #2 billboard hit "TUBALE" under the alias "WARNING" in 1993.
Ali started as a DJ/promoter in NY in 1995. He became a resident DJ at the weekly party "ONE LOVE", which led to bookings all over the US. Together, they are working on original tracks and remixes and promoting their label "SIRENUM RECORDS", which has already produced a sold out hit record "Godless". In between working hard at the studio and spinning on their "studio sessions" Mondays on Downshiftradio we caught up with the boys and got the down and dirty.

Ali K and Alex Arzeno interview

How long have you been producing music?

Alex: I have been producing music since 1978 and electronic music since 1986. What made me start producing electronic music was my fascination with synthesizers. I loved the fact of being the whole band myself. No more excuses like: the drummer can't make rehearsals or the guitar player eloped and nobody knows where he is (that sucked).
Ali and I met through my wife. They worked together at that time and Jameeale ( my wife) noticed that Ali had an interest in music and was a deejay. She mentioned to Ali that I was also a deejay and producer. So one day Ali and I met in mid-town Manhattan and from then on we started to collaborate.
Ali: I started producing music seriously after I met Alex in 2001. Before then I had only experimented around with ACID by Sonic Foundry, putting a couple of tracks together using loop CDs.
