After the huge success of his Traxsource No.1 ’Soulful Storm’ album release in 2021, which featured Tasha LaRae, Monique Bingham, Fonda Rae, Crystal Waters and so many more, DJ Spen unleashes 'Eye Of The Storm’, an impressive collection of his album songs all brilliantly remixed by some of the biggest names in dance music. Loaded with Soulful, Deep, Afro House and Disco gems, 'Eye Of The Storm’ boasts a who's who of house on remix duty, with exclusive new reworks by Kerri Chandler, DJ Spinna, Ralf GUM, DJ Meme, Terry Hunter, Manoo, Jovonn, Jaeger & Rynhart and DJ Spen & Gary Hudgins, alongside already hugely popular remixes from David Morales, John Morales, Mike Dunn, Jihad Muhammad, MicFreak and Michael Gray.

US house icon DJ Spen (aka Sean Spencer) began his illustrious career in the mid-’80s as a 13 year- old Baltimore hip-hop radio DJ, making beats with his group the Numarx. The group was responsible for writing and recording 'Girl You Know It’s True', later covered by Milli Vanilli. DJ Spen later moved into the classic Chicago house sound, joining forces with The Basement Boys collective. Working with a group of talented vocalists and musicians, under the name Jasper Street Co., DJ Spen released his first solo production, 'A Feelin’ on Basement Boys Records in 1995. This was the first in a lauded series of releases for the label that brought Spen commercial and dance floor success over the next decade, earning him international recognition as a house music pioneer.

In 2004, DJ Spen split from The Basement Boys, and eventually founded his new imprints Quantize Recordings and later, Unquantize. Collectively, both labels have notched up an impressive 600+ releases, featuring artists such as Crystal Waters, Ann Nesby, Louie Vega, David Morales, Barbara Tucker, Timmy Regisford, ThommyDavis, and so many more. As a remixer, he has put his own stamp on anthems from Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Everything But The Girl, Toni Braxton and more. As a DJ, Spen has been spinning across the globe, holding down a busy tour schedule for the past 30 years, bringing his magic to clubs and festivals, establishing his status as an eminent figure in dance music, both past and present.

In the ever changing illustration of what symbolizes house music today, a young entrant from Macedonia, Alek Soltirov, has immersed the uncompromising sounds of hip hop,  old school funk and soul and crafted into his own signature house blend. His production trademark is by resampling the behemoths such as Patrice Rushen, Al Green, George Benson, James Brown, Dr. Dre, Tupac, resulting in an intrinsic funky house sound. Moreover, Alek is not afraid to demonstrate his own independent interpretation of deep and funky driven house. As such, his impressive portfolio has been recognized by the likes of Mark Farina, Joey Negro, DJ Sneak, Doc Link, Dj Heather on multiple occasions. 

2010 was the year that put things in perspective. Chicago and deep house captured his attention and later became the very inspiration of his deep and groove sound. Frankie Knuckles, Derrick Carter, Mark Farina, Tommy Largo, Delano Smith, Kerri Chandler, Miguel Migs were the few visionaries that ignited his production efforts in 2013. 

Infused with distinct techniques that gush contentment, Alek’s production leaves relentless energy on the house music paradigm. Despite his young age, the maturity of Alek Soltirov’s output is evident and unceasing on labels such as Salted Music, Nervous Records, Fogbank Recordings, Good For You Records, Mind Medicine, Emby, Doin Work Records, Whitebeard Recordings-Chicago, Fullhouse Digital, Home Again Recordings Digital, Different Attitudes, King Street Sounds, Juiced Music, Greenhouse Recordings, Mjuzieekal Education, Pocket Jacks Trax, Mikita Skyy, Cruise Music, Grin Music. Overall, his eclectic music approach speaks for itself.  No wonder Alek’s releases have been charted by Joey Negro, Shur-I-Kan, DJ Mes, Kenny Summit just to name a few!
