About Alek S (made of CONCRETE, Star dub):
Tell us something about yourself, and how did you get into electronic music. Alek S: I’m a 36 years old vinyl lover from Cottbus (near Berlin) in Germany. I started djing around 1998 to impress girls and get famous. Did not work out. To be honest I did not really like electronic music in my earlier days I was more into punk and hip hop/rap. All I knew about electronic music was trance but not the good. After a night out with friends there was a party where the sound was different than what I knew.
So I started discovering, diggin and buying this music.
At the beginning, you were mostly djing. What made you decide to start
producing?
Alek S: For a record collector there is nothing bigger than having your own music on vinyl. That’s the main reason I started. Sometime I met Andreas Pionty who I knew thru djing. He told me that he and fumée grise are planning to run a label and they are looking for artists so I sent them my demos and they liked it, fortunately.
How and what music you produce?
Alek S: I have a passion for melancholic melodies and stripped-down dub sounds but it’s hard to find a label that will release these styles on one record but I know the guys from “made of CONCRETE” for a while now and I knew they would like it. When I’m working on tracks I mostly hear old classic rap/hip hop and also a lot of
punk and straight edge hardcore.
When you’re not djing, producing or listening to music, what do you do? Alek S: Of course I’ve got a job; after that I’ll try to spend as much time as possible with my lil’ son and my girlfriend. And i’m also addicted to sports. At least 3 times a
week. LINKS:
