Alex’s life has always been surrounded by music.


The last of seven children, he discovered the rock,

pop and disco discs his older brothers were

listening to. When he turns 4, he receives a small

record player as a present on which he spins his

first 45” single “You Got The Power” by the funk band War. His three big brothers even

made a discomobile, a portable DJ set up, to play at parties and weddings around the

city of Versailles. His big leap into music is when he discovers the New Wave genre and

bands like The Cure, The Jam (his first LP), the Stranglers, Joy Division and New Order.
