Biography of Alexander Maier |  | | Moniker(s) / | dj all*star, almaMale |
alexander maier was born '74 in stuttgart. As a teenager he worshipped „The Cure“ and „Depeche Mode“. Beside his deejay- and producer-career he works as a project manager & consultant for a internet agency, loves to cook regional and thai food or is yearing for summer to wear his flip flops - he is addicted to them and having them on from may to october.
He loathes all the boulevard media hypes, but likes trash-tv. His fridge always contains a bootle of iced „grey goose“ and serano ham. Before climbing into bed, he always drinks a coke, smokes a fag, goes to toilet, sets the alarm clock on his iphone and feeds his shy cat.
Alexander is spinning records for over 20 years, playing from fresh house to dark detroit-techno, always deep and often spiced with some melancholia. Beside national & international bookings he always appreciates to play in his both residencies „Rocker 33“ and „Romy S.“ in Stuttgart. He’s releasing on labels like Moodmusic, Dieb Audio, Blu Fin (together with Marius Lehnert as almaMale), Buzzin Fly, Exun, and more. Since late 2008 he is part of the Moodmusic Crew.
