Alex Neri

Project: Creative Consultants

Alex Neri has been making an influential contribution to modern electronic dance music since the early 90’s

Alex kicked off his career at a very young age, when his first step into the music scene saw him DJ at various clubs in the Tuscany region of Italy. These were the years of new wave, electro funk and garage influenced house music of the 90s, and Alex quickly became well known across the globe for his own unique Italo style productions

Alongside his success as an international DJ, he also forged a long term working relationship with Marco Baroni. They have produced many classic records together under many different aliases, with one of the most popular being Kamasutra whose releases were worshipped on a global scale 

In 1995 Alex created Planet Funk, releasing two superb club records before this developed into a fully fledged band project. Their first official single as a band was ‘Chase the Sun’ in 1999 which rapidly became a global radio hit and led to multiple album and single releases and industry wide acclaim. To date the band have released five studio albums, and are now currently finalising their sixth album, which is for release due soon

At the very core, Alex’s passion remains in the clubs, where he can best express his pure love for music. Always innovative, his DJ sets are a fantastic marriage between experimental sounds and the hottest house and techno tracks
