ATFC is not Aberystwyth Town Football Club, the lesser known Welsh football team, but instead he is the uber talented, well loved and respected, legendary, british, veteran DJ, Aydin Hasirci who will be spinning his tunes for the first time in Hong Kong in drop.
Commanding dancefloors for eons as well as producing records that have stood the test of time, ATFC made his name during the naughties, since the beginning of his career he has simply gotten bigger, better, faster and stronger.
With three UK top forty hits, he has played at some of the biggest festivals and clubs around the world. During his 18 years as a producer and DJ he has remixed some the best known artists in the world… Moby, Missy Elliot, P. Diddy and Fat Boy Slim all called on his services. Described by DJ Magazine “as one of the top producers in the world of straight down the line, mainroom house music’ he is one of the industry’s most exciting and consistent artists.
ATFC ROCKING THE CROWD AT PACHA, IBIZA 2008
In ‘08 he had a busy year by mixing the Defected Miami ‘08 compilation and then later the successful Defected in the House – Goa ‘09 album, the first western house mix album of its kind in India production wise, ATFC has experienced a renaissance of late with huge dance floor obliterating tunage in the form of remixes of Funkerman, Marc Evans and a cheeky little bootleg of Ame Rej. he’s also got three killer tracks recently released, Juss A Beat, Praise to the JB’s and Bad Habit 2008, which are have been used as every DJ’s bullets since. It didn’t stop there, Aydin teamed up with the fresh faced and uber talented new york vocalist Yasmeen Sulieman to produce one of his newest projects ‘Tell U Why.’ It was released on the seminal US house label Strictly Rhythm. It has been heavily supported by many international DJ’s including Seamus Haji and The Cube Guys. Shortly after that came ‘Give Me Love’ feat Rae, quickly climbing up the Beatport chart to become a top 5.
His recent remix of Dubfire's 'Roadkill' was described as 'verging on genius' by Pete Tong. 'Ya Killin’ Me' is currently being sought out by all the major players in the house world, and he'd just signed exciting single and album deals with 2 of the most respected labels around.
His recent DJ tour of the far east, Asia and Australia was a huge success with the highlight being the Summerdayze festival in Perth playing to a crowd of over 20,000 strong. You’ll see ATFC appearing on Defected, Strictly Rhythm, and Toolroom records, proving that, if nothing else, the man's more versatile than he looks!
