their own biography
the whole biography
Alexander Kowalski is a Berlin-based electronic music artist, producer and live performer whose work connects the physical force of techno with depth, atmosphere and a distinct sense of musical authorship. Emerging from Berlin’s 1990s club culture, he built his reputation through hardware-driven production, a hands-on studio approach and a sound that bridges direct club impact with emotional detail. Kowalski’s first live performances took place in the late 1990s, including an early appearance at Tresor in 1997. Under the alias DisX3, he released his first records on Tresor Records before establishing himself under his own name with a series of influential releases on Heiko Laux’s Kanzleramt label. His debut album Echoes appeared in 2001, followed by Progress in 2002 and Response in 2003 - records that helped define his reputation for driving, detailed and atmospheric techno. Built around hardware instruments, live jams and a strong performance identity, Kowalski’s music has always carried a physical and immediate quality. Tracks such as “Speaker Attack”, “Belo Horizonte” and collaborations including “All I Got To Know” & “Hot Spot” with Raz Ohara became key moments in his catalogue, combining the directness of club music with a more personal, melodic and emotional language. I n 2006, Kowalski released Changes on PIAS, expanding his sound beyond the framework of his earlier Kanzleramt period. In 2009, he founded Damage Music Berlin, an artist-run label for carefully selected releases and a further expression of his independence, curatorial focus and commitment to artistic control. His 2018 album Cycles on MORD marked another important chapter and introduced an idea that now continues in a new form with the launch of his label of the same name. With the launch of his new label Cycles Music, Kowalski opens a focused contemporary phase of his work: rooted in techno, shaped by the club, but looking beyond function alone. The label brings together new productions, carefully curated reissues and a broader artistic vision dedicated to timeless electronic music - physical, atmospheric and unmistakably his own.Their RA profile lists PIAS, Cocoon Recordings, Factor City Records, Tresor and 6 more.often with DINA, ROBUS, HEDDA, none of them here that night
