Nome: Alessandro Mengini
Nato a Portoferraio il 13 Maggio 1966 e ivi residente; fin da piccolo appassionato di musica in generale, anche perché nemmeno sapeva dell’esistenza delle discoteche. Ha frequentato per pochi mesi, durante il terzo anno delle scuole elementari, un corso di pianoforte e, francamente nella pratica era già abbastanza avanti ma, in teoria, si intuiva già, che avrebbe seguito il percorso più breve: lui e i libri non sono tuttora fatti l’ uno per l’ altro. Durante le scuole medie, quando lo invitavano ai compleanni, amava, già ad allora, portarsi dietro i suoi pochissimi dischi e cassette, per farle ascoltare e ballare alla sua compagnia di amici, ovvio…. Manco a dirlo, non era musica disco. Si è avvicinato alla musica da discoteca nel 1978 ma, non ha mai avuto la possibilità di comprarsi i dischi che andavano di moda in quel periodo, ogni tanto da un amico d.j. dell’ epoca, riusciva a farsi registrare qualche cassetta, dalle quali con il passare degli anni è riuscito a trovarne i titoli dei brani e finalmente, lavorando, ha potuto iniziare a comprarsi i suoi primi dischi. Fin dal primo approccio con la musica disco, si è innamorato del Funky e su quel genere di musica ha basato le sue fondamenta, tanto che ad oggi, gli piace suonarlo nelle varie feste private e situazioni particolari, per gli amanti del genere, per le quali è molto ricercato all’ Isola d’ Elba. Il 1982 è l’ anno in cui ha fatto il suo primo ingresso (da cliente) in una discoteca: (La Bussola di Porto azzurro - Isola d’Elba), nel maggio 1983 un amico che lavorava li come dj, gli propose di dargli una mano alle luci e accettò senza pensarci due volte, a quel punto colse l’occasione e si fece insegnare il mestiere, che gli dette buoni risultati fin da subito. Nel corso degli anni vanta di aver conosciuto e lavorato alla discoteca La Bussola al fianco di nomi del calibro di Riccardo Cioni e Steve Martin pietre miliari del epoca dai quali è stato musicalmente influenzato, Federico L’Olandese Volante (allora a Radio 105, attualmente a R.T.L.102.5), Wish Key alias Max Berti Dj autore del brano Orient Espress 1984, P.Lion autore del brano Happy Children 1984 e Ryvon Dj anche lui autore di un brano di successo all’epoca, ma del quale non ricordo i titolo, infine Micia Dj la prima donna dj che ha conosciuto. In altri locali con Master Dj (Duplè Aulla 1986), Stefano Secchi (Radio 105), Miki, Farfa, Ciro, dai quali con l’avvento dell’ house music ho appreso molto.
