Basic Physics is the creation of Madison, Wisconsin's DJ / producer, Alex Syse. Founded in 2010, Basic Physics has injected a fresh, new sound in the mashup / DJ industry. Having already played with the likes of Chiddy Bang, Steve Aoki, Lotus, Big Gigantic, Orchard Lounge, and DJ Logic, Basic Physics flavors the electronic / hip hop music scene while adding in creative samples from multiple genres of music. Basic Physics stormed onto the scene in the summer of 2010 when he released “Stuntin’ with a Milli” to the blogosphere. Within days, the track hit #1 on the hype machine music charts and opened up numerous doors. In October, Alex released "Ghosts on a G6" hitting #1 on the hype machine charts 3 times and generating over 100,000 listens on soundcloud and tens of thousands on youtube.

Basic Physics dropped his first mixtape titled "Nightlife in the Northwoods." Alex provided some insight into the mixtape. "Nightlife in the Northwoods is a compilation of 15 Basic Physics mashups. When going to the drawing board to create this mixtape, the first thing that was laid down was that this was going to be about quality. I'm not a individual that releases tracks just for the name behind it. The goal was to produce a mixtape that kept the listener into it 100% of the way, that flows from start to finish. My music has so many influences, including the production quality of Xaphoon Jones, the addicting sound of Wolfgang Gartner or Afrojack, the brilliance of Daft Punk, and the creativity of artists like Pretty Lights, Ellie Goulding, and Lupe Fiasco. Having the ability to make a mashup is one thing, but making it memorable and something worth listening to is the main goal. What started as a passion for music has become something that we are pursuing. I'm going to continue to produce mashups, but I also plan on diving into other projects including an original EP and producing for various artists. This mixtape is something that I hope will elevate my ability to achieve the things I want to do and the music I want to produce."
