Aydan Hussein, otherwise known as Alter-Mind, is a talented young newcomer to the Melbourne techno scene. Expanding from his interest in the hardcore and metal genres, Aydan discovered his passion for the raw, in-your-face sound during one memorable event headlined by none other than The Baron of Techno, Dave Clarke.

Inspired by the achievements of established artists such as Len Faki, Rebekah and Clouds, Aydan has independently released a handful of quality tracks rooted in the heavy, dark and industrial end of the techno spectrum. Delving into the realms of field recording and modular synthesis, he possesses a curious mind that consistently strives to innovate, create, and discover - in the studio as well as in his broader life. He currently co-hosts the Thursday night TRNSMT.tv show Node alongside likeminded producers SFBM, Devant and Sandra Sundelin, all highly active and equally passionate supporters of Melbourne’s underground dance music scene.

Following a childhood invested in playing the guitar and bass, Aydan’s shift to electronic music production grew from an insatiable desire to express his genuine, unadulterated emotion and thought free from the constraints of a modern-day society. His works are backed by studies in audio production at the Australian College of the Arts, proving that he can navigate his way around the recording studio and that he carries weight not only in the creative, but also the technical.
