" Who is this Alien” : the man behind the mask?" I hear you ask.... Ari Linker from Israel 'up-and-at-em', full-power psychedelic trance.... Ari has been pretty much ‘on the road’ with it since 1994 when he made his first appearance in Goa, India. This is the much celebrated birth-place of the now world- wide ‘psychedelic’ Trance movement,
which is why the music was first called ‘Goa Trance’. (Soon to become ‘Psychedelic Trance’, then just ‘Psy- Trance’,
Alien Project has been invited back to perform in Goa every year since those heady days of ’94 and he has built up a large fan-base of adoring Aliens who continue to follow his sound around the globe, always hungry for his latest track, remix or collaboration. Of course Goa isn’t the only place in which the Alien Sound has been appreciated. Far from it! Although it’s probably true to say that this is where Ari really honed his talents and began to build on his sound, as well as his loyal following, in actual fact, Alien Project has, by now, been right around the world.
So much so that it would probably be easier to list the places in which the Alien hasn’t been
seen or, more importantly, heard! Ari Linker has a vast portfolio of tracks and compositions that he has produced, re-mixed,
and compiled for a veritable plethora of artists, record labels, distribution companies,
media entertainment giants, and would you believe it, even a Hollywood Film Studio!
Alien Project also features on something that is probably resident in the homes
of millions of unsuspecting young people, busily playing away on their latest computer games?
Ari was snapped up by mega entertainment giant Sony for their hugely popular ‘Grand Turismo 4’
series which has probably captured the attention of a billion excitable kids across the globe.
So as they race around their screens in bedrooms, howling and squealing with delight,
it’s no wonder they are full of energy and who knows, Alien Project might have silently inured a million happy children to the sounds of their future.......??? Add to all of this, the many and varied earlier Alien Project releases, including two for Cosmic Communications, Siesta Ambient Compilation, Phonokol Records, Twisted Records (London), Spun Records and Solstice Japan,
Alien Project also released some great music with the Grand Daddy of all the original
Psy-Trance’ Record Labels and they, of course, are T.I.P. (The Infinity Project).
Alien Project is the man behind some rather good compilations that have been released too....
such as Phonokol’s ‘Most Wanted’, Solstice’s ‘Delicious’ compilation and T.I.P’s ‘Nuclear Visions of Israel and manny more ... Alien Project’s artist albums include: Midnight Sun, Dance or Die, Aztechno Dream, Don’t Worry be Groovy, Activation Portal, Space Jam, Love Machine, Maximum Velocity and Nuclear Visions of Israel. Ari is also the man behind the project “Save the Robot” alongside the one and only Ido Liran aka Quadra.
