Alex Neri

Alex Neri’s story runs through the clubs of Tuscany, where his early DJ years took shape around new wave, electro-funk, garage and house. Alongside his work behind the decks, he entered the studio with Marco Baroni, developing productions including the Kamasutra project. In 1999, Planet Funk added a band dimension to his musical life.

His connection with Florence’s Tenax extends into record-making: in 2003, Neri founded Tenax Recordings in collaboration with the club. Housetrack received a SIAE award as the best-selling independent-label record of 2004. The imprint subsequently provided a home for artists including Federico Grazzini, Ilario Alicante and Luca Bacchetti, linking Neri’s own productions with a wider Italian club community.
