Artist Portrait

Alex G. & Fame

Band, *1976
Dance
A.k.a. Alexander Grassl, Michel Sacher

Alexander Grassl and Michel Sacher were born in 1976. In the early 90'ies, they started to interest in Techno and visited first partys where they were inspired by DJs as Gangsta, Noise or Sven Väth. Short time later, they had the chance to play music in the youth centre from the village, so they got experiences in DJ-ing. Beginning with Acid and Progressive House, they followed the musical way to Hardcore, Techno and finally Trance. Playing in the youth centre was only the beginning, because they were guests on many events in the region of their village. But being booked for clubs or bigger partys was difficult, and so Alex and Michel understood that it's not only the experience, but also the connections. 1996, they met DJ Antoine and started to work together. Antoine had connections to Tarot, a club-organisation in Zurich (today OXA) and, because of that, they had the possibility to met Mas Ricardo. 1998, Michel and Alex had their first booking in the club OXA and the evening was a big success. In the beginning of 1999, a booking in the club Sensor followed. They were also DJs for other partys, but Tarot was the only possibility for the guys to play in Zurich. So they were happy about their invitations in Sensor. But after Sensor closed its doors, the DJ-career of Michel and Alex seemed to be finish. But they didn't start to cry: They found their own homestudio and tried to produce. The results must have been good, because DJ Snowman, label-owner of Friendship/Sonar, discovered the talent of the guys and so they made a contract. In August 2000, the first track "Freedom" of the two had been released. Together with the remix from Green Court, the track was a big success. Since autumn 1999, Alex works in the recordshop from DJ Antoine in Basel, while Michel concentrates on productions in the studio. Also, he doing the label-managing for Friendship Records. Alex and Michel do their DJ-jobs still together and they try still to reach the ultimate breakthrough in the scene.
