Aldinach
DJ Tutor
Originally born in Germany, Dan Cooke moved to England in 2000 and grew up in the city of Norwich. It was during his early years there that he discovered Radio 538's Dance Department, sparking a lifelong passion for electronic music. This formative influence led him to start DJing, producing music, and immersing himself in the underground dance scene.
Driven by a desire to pursue music professionally, Dan relocated from Norwich to Manchester. Within his first year in the city, he became involved with prominent local collectives such as In The Know, Nacht, and Concept Audio Collective—supporting acclaimed artists like I AM BAM, REBEKAH, and JACKY.
Building on that momentum, Dan joined the Underground Kollektiv radio team, where he now hosts a regular show that showcases his evolving sound. His work with the collective has earned him multiple Top 5 spots on Mixcloud and even led to opportunities to perform at ADE (Amsterdam Dance Event).
Dan expresses his dual musical identity through two distinct aliases. Under Dan Cooke, he explores groovy, minimal, and deep tech sounds—capturing the energy of summer parties, including several performances across Barcelona in 2022. On the flip side, his alter ego Aldinach delves into a darker realm of hard, raw, and deep techno. This contrast allows him to maintain a clear creative direction while exploring the full spectrum of his musical vision.
While in Barcelona, Dan also collaborated with DJ Uboo and performed at Recreo BCN, further expanding his international presence.
Whether it's under Dan Cooke or Aldinach, his sets are marked by a distinctive style and an authentic connection to the underground scene.
