BIO

A Story at best, this Artist needs no introduction into the world of music. His activities with various DJs and musicians can be detected to many sources globally. Alex has had the opportunity to grace the turntables with many great DJs who have the utmost respect for his deep, bouncing & twisted obscurities of dancefloor tracks.

 

Since '96 he has been an active dj, producer as well as organising parties and running labels in Zurich, Switzerland. He had the chance to travel as a dj which gave him an objective view on scenes and the diversity of the world. Alex is a big admirer of quality tracks as oppose to the usual crowdpleasing music which is played constantly at clubs. He has stuck with his vision of challenging things, representing the deeper side of clubmusic. because there's so much music to expands one's horizons and it's exciting for him to show the connections and progressions of styles & eras. A Good example of his versatility is his old label Straight Ahead and the music he produced as Earthbound with Alex Gustafson. A Genre-free zone which was a platform to house-producers, abstract b-boys, soulrebels as well as cosmic jazz acts.

 

His intense passion to create space for the music he loves inspired Alex also to run clubs and in 2002 he found himself co-managing Zurich's craziest club ever the Dachkantine. In 2006 he opened with some friends like Kalabrese the style-coining and very dedicated underground club Zukunft - a place of musical and artistical freedom. Followed by the new club Cabaret in 2009. The Cabaret offers more options for the local alternative club culture.

 

In 2006 he started the label Drumpoet Community in Co-operation with Ron Shiller from Soultourist and Compost Records.

 

Together with Bernd Kunz from AFMB and his long-time partner Alex Gustafson they formed The Lost Men as an output for their dancefloor orientated productions. What is trademarking for him after all these years is that he still likes to sit in between the chairs, conscious and open-minded - hoping that there is the key to find and create unheard or new music.
