From the Lab to the Cab! If you\u2019re an electronic music lover, chances are you’ve turned your car into a personal mini-rave. Especially if the journey is a long one. But have you ever imagined a DJ playing in your car? This ingenious madness has been brought to life by Aimj\u00e9<\/a><\/strong>, a Geneva-based DJ and creator of TRAXI<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a while now, this project has been on the prowl, scouting the freshest talents across the European scene in the most peculiar setting. A car, a generator plugged into a cigarette lighter, a mic, a controller and a carefully curated selection of music. That’s the winning formula that has effortlessly captivated its audience, all delivered with a touch of charisma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While TRAXI <\/strong>refuses to be confined within the boundaries of a specific musical genre, it finds its place in house music and all its subgenres. On the decks of this rolling “booth\u201d, artists such as our very own Ethy\u00e8ne<\/a><\/strong>, the Swiss trio Mont Rouge<\/a><\/strong>, Loulou Ferrari <\/strong>(resident of Sacr\u00e9 <\/strong>Paris), Jennifer Riva <\/strong>and many more have played. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this mobile electronic experience demands a closer look. Let\u2019s discover TRAXI <\/a><\/strong>in detail together! <\/p>\n\n\n

  • One day you were chillin’ and you said. I’m going to get DJs in my car, playing while I drive. What inspired the creation of TRAXI? Who was the first guest?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    I’d been wanting to find a place where I could mix at any time without bothering anyone. So the car seemed like the perfect place – I’ve never been arrested for listening to music too loudly. I looked for a way to power my controller, and I quickly came across this little converter that you plug into the cigarette lighter.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Once I got it, everything worked, but I thought I might not use it that much.  Naturally I thought it wouldn’t be so bad to share my car with other djs. We’re all familiar with that programme where celebrities are interviewed and sing, so why not mix?  I had the idea, all I needed was the name. Being a pseudo taxi with a dj at the back, it seemed logical to combine the two: taxi + track. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For the first one I wanted to do it with a friend. That would make it easier to put the ideas in place and especially in case of technical problems. He’s a mate so I thought he’d be more accommodating. And he was. I forgot to record his first pass on the USB. (DJs have two 30-minute sets). It was with La For\u00eat<\/strong>, DJ, producer and director of the biggest electronic club in the city and of the brand new festival Le Minuit Festival<\/strong>. Thanks again to him!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
