Hey there... I'm ALX. I'm a producer of music. Mainly commercial cheesey dance music, though I work in most styles. As far as listening and influences are concerned, you might catch me listening to anything from Special D to Rage to Fat Freddys Drop to Steely Dan...
I come from the small town of Ross-On-Wye in Herefordshire, but now live just down the road in Bristol. I started making music on a basic setup in the late 90s, and have been hard at it ever since.
I'm really not afraid to blur the boundaries of what might be considered cheesey with more intelligent music, most of my ALX output is tongue-in-cheek and cheerful, and made with the intention of making people dance. I don't take myself too seriously!
Most of my direct influence comes from 90s dance acts like The Prodigy and Adamski, and more commercial acts like 2 Unlimited and Cappella. But I have a huge musical interest and will draw inspiration from all over the place.
With a sizeable amount of singles and remixes already released, and many more due out in the near future (under various pseudonyms), you'll probably have heard an ALX production somewhere or other before long, whether you knew it or not...
Some of my projects include several collaborations with D-Style from German act Verano, a remix on All Around The World here in the UK, and BE52 Records in Germany. I've also had quite a few tracks featured on compilations around the world, particularly in Japan. I am currently working on a project with US dance legend Jason Nevins, and I'm working on some new commercial tracks with Irish DJ/Producer Jazzi Jay.
Some other names/collaborations I've made tracks under include 'Alexandros', 'Syndroma', 'Garron Llang' and 'Minera', and I also make a load of other styles when I have time, including a bit of Drum & Bass and Breaks.
I'm also a DJ, playing a varied mixture but centering around UK and German commercial trance and hard dance, sometimes straying into house, breaks or even drum & bass (if I can get away with it!).
