Hey Alex, thank you for your time and for having you on board.
Let us know when you started your carrer as a DJ and producer?
“That was in 1996″

Tell us a bit more about your milestones in the music biz.
“Since 1996 I’ve had several releases on Cocoon, Poker Flat, and my own imprints Circle Music and Gedankensport and I worked as an A&R for Plastic City, Harthouse and some more labels.”

So you’re kind of a real musical ambassador. Whats the size of your record collection? “I own about 11.000 to 12.000, but stopped counting, probably there are even more…”
