Music on the Go! Episode II with Alexi Delano

Interview by Amanda Ferrario

DJs travel a lot. They are probably the people who travel most frequently, sometimes even twice in one night. In fact, they often play in a location and 4 hours later in a total different country. 

We are used to see them in the “god-is-a-dj” mode at clubs and festivals, before huge crowds, but how are DJs when they get off the decks, in their private traveling routines, out of the spotlight?

For the second episode of this series we interviewed Chilean, London-based DJ and producer Alexi Delano, also A&R of AD Limited label.
