Contrasting the previous post on RDCTBR, the Melbourne young gun, it seems suitable to pay tribute to a more established Australian made DJ, especially considering his current production efforts. Over the past years, Ajax has become a household name in the Australian dance scene, with the established producer/DJ amounting masses of festival, club and concert appearances alongside a number of remixes and original releases. AJAX took out the In The Mix (ITM) Australian DJ Poll for two consecutive years, managing wins in 2006 and 2007, with a 3rd place finish in 2008. On top of that, Justice labeled AJAX as the one to watch in 2008 while Busy P and Digitalism gave him top honors for DJ's of 2007. The former Bang Gang DJ brought together his own efforts via his new label, Sweat It Out, which lead to the release of 'Sweat It Out - Volume 1' in conjunction with Miami Horror. Since then, the Sydney DJ is currently in works with his label alongside his own production efforts while still managing to show his stuff at all the best festivals and clubs throughout Australia. Be sure to check out the mixes ('Ain't lookin' for a Dime' recommended), its just a reminder (a relatively old one at that) of what AJAX is worth and hopefully a glimpse at what's coming up. Oh, and while your listening... jump on his myspace check out the tour dates, listen to some mixes and maybe even download a few? He's available everywhere.
