Growing up in Russia and Germany, Alex Einz has been exposed to many sub-genres ofElectronica from a very early age. Due to the underground rave scene in Russia at the time, Alex found inspiration from the sounds of 808 State, Juno Reactor, Plastikman, and Leftfield, amongst others.
As a DJ, he has been able to fuse together these influences and push his very own take on electronica by constantly pushing the boundaries within a club environment with his deep techno grooves keeping true to his musical orientation.
Alex Einz has been playing and supporting the underground scene since his early days in Israel and continues with an experimental brand of techno music that showcases his talents both musically and technically as respected DJ.
Through his regular DJ spot on the legendary pirate radio station Periscope FM, he met then local techno DJ Ido Govrin and together they established the “12 inch Junkies” vinyl shop in downtown Jerusalem. Later they went on to form the House duo “Decoit’e” and got signed to Chicago based record label Bumpin City.
Moving to Asia and having guest DJ’ed throughout Asia, Europe, and the Middle East for many years he is now heavily involved in the Tokyo club scene with his clubnight “Phonika” (with Groove Patrol and Mark Oxley) which steadily grows to be a prime event in Tokyo with a healthy mix of Japanese and international Techno and House DJs showcasing talents such as Dyed Soundorom, Bodycode and Samuel L Session amongst others.
