Ali Nasser is also a very open and friendly guy, probably one of the rarest occurrences in music nowadays. He seems to be deep into the music he makes and totally dedicated to putting on the best performance for his public every time. As he confessed to us over the phone he cares deeply about the songs he plays and can get lost for hours in a row looking for that right groove. He still buys vinyl whenever he gets the chance to and confesses to sometimes getting inspired while riding his bike through the park. With quality releases and remixes for Audiofly’s Supernature, BeCosen or Derivat Recs Ali Nasser must be riding his bike a lot these days! He’s part of the Sunrise family and very good friends of the [a:rpia:r] lads, and making new friends with every opportunity
