Long time Phoenix resident Inertia is constantly bridging the gap between human and machine, laying down syncopated atmospheres of computer generated music without sacrificing the heart and soul that people long for on the dance floor. For nearly 2 decades Inertia has been at the forefront of electronic music, both as a DJ and Producer.

As a Producer, his tracks have found their way into the hearts and playlists of DJ’s such as Danny Howells, Deepdish, Paul Van Dyk, Sasha, and John Digweed. In fact, his co-produced track “Time” by The Dream Traveler, was featured as the opening (and only US Produced track) on the legendary “Tranceport” CD by Paul Oakenfold.

A typical night with Inertia behind the decks might include a mishmash of electronic styles. Whether it’s uplifting or dark and brooding, he is going to find the sweet spot in the audience, and ensure they leave with sweat soaked clothes and smiles on their faces.

Inertia’s mix for the final round in the NGDJ competition can be listened to and voted on at the Let’s Mix Website where you can also check out mixes by the other finalists in the NGDJ competition.

Enjoy!

Looking to further your career in Dance Music as a producer or remixer? We recently came across Point Blank Music School and checked out the numerous programs they offer. I was impressed with the large assortment of classes working with some of the top platforms for Apple OSX: Producing with Ableton Live, DJing with Ableton, Logic Pro, Reason, and Cubase. They also offer classes in all the major genres of Dance Music like: Trance, House, Minimal, Electro House, Progressive, and Hip Hop as well as Songwriting, Mixing, and DJing classes. Their new Mixing Dance Music course looks especially interesting as the mix is one thing that really makes a track shine. In this course you get to upload tracks you created for the teacher to critique and give you pointers on how to get the most our of your sound. DJ Mag has awarded them the “Best Music Production & DJ School” for the past six consecutive years which is pretty impressive.

Check out their course catalog to see what’s right for you.
