For fans of the more melodic aspects of techno, keep your eyes and ears peeled on San Diego-based DJ/Producer .aali. His sound aesthetic has been likened to Cirez D, Stephan Bodzon, and Tale of Us. Pushing forward past the fear of rejection like many artists before him, .aali has arrived at his sound in emphatic triumph. The milestone comes in the form of his debut EP, Double Vision.

Armed with a style that encompasses a mix between deep house, melodic techno, and dark disco, Double Vision pulls together multiple genres into one consistent beat—making for quite the mental journey in the process. The five-tracker is a complex collection of songs that draws out the nature of duality, presenting songs that are disorganized yet cohesive, poignant, and inky.

.aali has been on a long journey towards becoming the musician and producer that fans hear today. Initially experimenting with hip-hop beats, .aali studied the work of DJ Premier and Dr. Dre, honing his own skills and developing a unique sound. After a two-year hiatus, .aali pivoted into dance and electronic music to start a new journey. .aali blends together a rich mix of electronic sonics, endeavoring to orchestrate his own authentic sound.

At long last, .aali has achieved a musical catalog that genuinely excites him, and is excited to share his sounds with the world. Be sure to stream Double Vision below.
