Born in Jesi, italy,in 1979, Alexander has always been fascinated by rythm and melody, becoming the local primary school beatboxer since he was 5. His second musical approach was when he falled in love with his uncle's "2 decks no-pitch and mixer consolle" at the age of 12 and in the same time starting composition studies due to the help of it's hated/loved musical teacher at school. 2 years later the uncle's consolle got an upgrade (read technics 1200) and with 3 others friends from his hometown started to make afterschool parties. Those events fast become a fixed town appointment. The group met almost everyday for 5 years, sharing decks, fun, points of view, records and sometimes girlfriends. He has also been the 2nd voice and percussionst of the metal-crossover band Gamera. As a dj he played for years in local clubs and events until 2001, when he decided to push his carreer in the production direction. After moving to Bologna and meeting Touane (Persona rec.) he started focusing on digital tracks creation and live performing. He was also one of the founders of the Facchini Connection (with Touane, Nuel and Shaduz) and Homework.it (http://www.homeworkrecords.net; http://www.homeworkfestival.net) project, promoting homemade digital art and organizing events in the town of bologna.
During the years his very particular techno live act has becamed one of the most requested in the italian underground electronic scene, bringing Alexander in the consolle of many events and clubs/social centers such as LINK, Cassero, Kinky, TPO, Rialto S.Ambrogio, Kindergarten, Homework festival, MUV, Blueroom, Crash, Street Rave Parade, Bucolica, Wunderkammer, After Bolo Clan and many others not listed here.
During the 2006 he founded the Toymon project with Dj Pezzo (new kitchen studio 3) and Fabrizio Maurizi AKA Roger (M_nus, Memento), a production exchange collaboration that lead them to go out of the town boundaries.
After publishing Ready to change (2008, 7oz records) as the title suggests, he moved away from italy to reach the wonderfull inspiring Berlin to push his music to a new level.
He was organizing during 2008/2009 the I have to rave parties in Berlin; now he is resident at WH? NOT! and The JamObsession events at the M.i.k.Z. club and at the Internationales SubKulturfest, all in the town of Berlin.
