Alexander Kowalski (musician)
Alexander Kowalski (born 1978 in Greifswald) is a German trance music artist.[1]
Career
Kowalski moved to Berlin in the early 1990s, and became exposed to techno music there.[1] Early influences on his work were Joey Beltram and Synewave, though he was limited to using cheap instruments to emulate them. He performed his first live gig at the Tresor Club in Berlin, and soon thereafter got in contact with Pacou and Sender Berlin, eventually releasing his first track on Proton Records in 1999. That same year, Kowalski and collaborator Stassy from Sender Berlin debuted as the techno team Double X.
Kowalski released his debut record Echoes in 2001, on the Kanzleramt label. He quickly produced a follow-up, Progress (early 2002).
A year and a half after his second album, he released Response, including the single "Belo Horizonte". He was nominated twice for the German dance award in 2003. After a break of three years, he switched record labels from Kanzleramt to Different.
