Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL After being on the road for a long time, then coming back into the studio and getting back into producing/editing/remixing tracks for single releases and podcasts was to be honest quite tough the last 2 months. Making tracks and then realising at certain moments that clearances will not happen so these tracks won’t be released at all…..that is far from inspiring. So I was searching for some inspiration again and then I flew to Colombia, Medellin. 5 flights within 24 hours to only get there, starting just before midnight. It is not all glitter and glamour in the dj world. BUT…..arriving at Medellin and then getting such a warm welcome from people who I have never met before. Julian, Clara, David, Beto, Mia, to name a few. I played a private party that day and the day after a 3-hour set at Salon Amador (Thanks to Panda 404). A beautiful, cozy and well designed and decorated nightclub in the heart of Medellin. What I did not expect (I hardly have expectations) is that so many people inside this club knew me and where really excited for my performance. How can you go wrong then? I think I played one of my best sets of this year and looking at the crowd I think they liked it as well ;-) So Medellin, Salon Amador, people from Colombia, thank you so much for making me feel inspired again! This is what came out of it: please listen and enjoy to Deep & Sexy #31. Love, Alex PS: A special shout out to my fellow musicians: Andreas, Georg & Little Indian. Thanks for being in my life!

Here is our remix for Vijay & Sofia - Falling Down. I am playing this track already for a while, for example at AfrikaBurn 2 weeks ago. Enjoy it! It is featured in my Deep & Sexy #29 (Alive @ AfrikaBurn): http://bit.ly/2pvQczh Check my Spotify Deep & Sexy playlist here: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL That time of the year....AfrikaBurn.....and yes it was another one on fire again. I felt ALIVE this AfrikaBurn. And the set you find here is the set I played on Thursday afternoon, sunset at Camp Now. Playing on the playa, dancing people around me, beautifully dressed up and feeling the freedom and their own soul and emotions. It was another privilege to play for all of these people again. Thanks as well to Bubbles & Bass and The Golden Calf for bringing so many beautiful experiences during my live sets there! And of course a big thanks to my AfrikaBurn Dino family! Enjoy this set! Till soon! Love, Alex Free download: Facebook.com/alexcruzofficial

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hi guys, please find here my Deep & Sexy Podcast #28 (Feeling Home) This times journey has brought me from Shanghai to Thailand, for a week off, a holiday during Christmas in the middle of the rainforest to recharge my battery. Spending New Years in Verbiers, Switzerland and after that returning home and doing some gigs in the Virgin Islands and the US. Returning home doesn’t necessarily mean ‘feeling home’. I always try to make myself feel at home wherever I am. If it is a lousy hotelroom or a place on an airport cause for some reason there is a 6 hour delay. Feeling home in my own place, or feeling at home at a friend’s place. I always try to make myself feel at home…..and again, it is not always possible but feeling home is a feeling I so much love. Cause it brings the best out in myself and so I assume in everyone if he/she has the same home feeling. Enjoy my Home Feeling mix! See you hopefully soon!

After making this track for my Pynk community in New York I felt I needed to make the world part of this gem. So…..after Giel Beelen (a Dutch well-know radio dj) gave Gabbi Lieve a huge platform on his talent show, I asked Gabbi to sing the vocals on this track. It is important to take care of your inner Sweet Child and therefor my message to you to be sweet, kind, loving, honest and caring to your inner Sweet Child. And now: ‘press play’ ;-) Have fun listening to this!

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hello there!! First I would like to thank you for all the support you’ve been giving me over the last 3 years! I feel blessed that I am able to play so many shows all over the world. All these happy faces in front of me gives me chills every time! Second, thank you for all the support through all of your messages! It is heart warming to read your stories what my music makes you feel or go through. Finally……..here is my new podcast for all of you. I got inspired on my trip to Morocco with the Voyaj crew, after sitting on a camel in the Sahara, sleeping in a tent and wake up for sunrise. The world is such a magic place. Being in the desert, hardly hearing noises except for the rushing wind. And then the day after I was playing in Rabat on a pirate ship! Who expects that? So much fun again! Something else which has been on my mind and heart the last weeks. Many people in this world want changes in their lives. Sometimes they even forget that respect for yourself and the people around you is a very important thing, at least it is to me. We should have respect for women, men, mexicans, gays….you know where I am going right? ;-) Please know that every individual can change this world. So take responsibility for your own life and of those around you. How expensive is it to just smile and be kind to yourself and others? A smile can do a lot…..please smile a little more. It makes a change. Love! Alex Free download is here: facebook.com/alexcruzofficial

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Good morning!! Please find here my Deep & Sexy Podcast #26! This is my Rio 2016 edition. I played 5 events in Rio de Janeiro during the Olympics and this podcast is a selection of the finest tracks which I played there. It was such a privilege to be able to play, on my day of arrival, for about 3000 people at a beautiful castle. Rushing in to get in time I finally arrived a few minutes after midnight, I was supposed to start at midnight. So coming there, the promoter said, well…..maybe wait for a little longer cause then the place is totally filled up since I was there headliner. After a few times:’aaaah, wait a little longer’, I started my set at 01:30. But….it was worth the wait. What a crowd and what a joy and excitement on the floor! My friend from New York, Kung Pow Meow also arrived so he was able to shoot some crazy footage of it, check my Facebook page for the video of that event. Furthermore I played for the United Nations/Unicef for their official ’Refugee House’. I played at the official Dutch ‘Heineken House’, the Olympic Village and at a private mansion. Apart from that I am a huge sports fanatic, love doing sports myself, so I had a wonderful time in Rio de Janeiro. I hope you enjoy it, it has some more intensive energetic tracks to it than you’re used to hear. So let me know your thoughts! Till soon! And a download is available again on my Facebook page: facebook.com/alexcruzofficial Ate logo, beijo! Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL I recorded this 25th podcast live at a real intimate Deep & Sexy party last Sunday. In a wonderful setting with a beautiful pool, palm trees and amazing people ? The last months has brought me several highlights. Playing for the first time in San Francisco, my very own Deep & Sexy pool party with genius Sax player Justin Ward. Playing on a yacht and a castle in Cambridge, enjoying another yacht at the Film Festival in Cannes, France. Playing Dusk in NYC, in the deep jungle of Nicaragua, also another beautiful gig at sir Richard Branson’s Necker island again. At the beach of the Dominican Republic, Cabarete and so many other beautiful places. On my way to Ibiza in a second for another beautiful encounter! And in 2 weeks I will be playing several events at The Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. One of them will be in the Olympic Village, so I am so excited for that! Creating some deep house tracks with existing Brazilian vocals on it right now to make sure I am ready for the Brazilian people! For now: enjoy my new podcast and hope to bring some sunshine and happiness in your life with it! Hopefully till soon somewhere on this planet!

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL So many beautiful experiences I have been through the last couple of weeks. From a beautiful gig in Lake Tahoe, to other crazy ones in LA, NY, San Diego and Austin. And then last week I had the privilege to play at the AfrikaBurn. A festival about 5 hours drive from Cape Town. I did two shows there. A sunset one and a pre-burn one. Both beautiful on its own. And when you hear the crowd scream: 'one more song, one more song' knowing that I already played 2 'more' songs....yes, then you know that they like what you do. That having said: I love bringing joy and happiness in your lives so the feeling is mutual! So straight from the heart another Deep & Sexy podcast for you guys. It's been a while so it is about time to fill your hearts with joy, soul and emotion again through some music. Embrace it and till the next time we (live or on soundcloud)meet! Love!

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Deep & Sexy Podcast no.23 - Live recorded at Necker Island. Last week I had the honour to play at sir Richard Branson's own private Island, which is part of the British Virgin islands. After a show in Panama, a show on top of a mountain in Utah with a stunning sunset, these tracks came out of my recordbag on this beautiful island. The environment of a beach, a BIG hot tub, palm trees, cocktails and amazingly smart, intelligent and most of all FUN people I played a 4 hour set (with live on Violin mister Dave Kim and support by legend DJ John Dill) until we took the last boat off of the island at 3:30am. An amazing adventure! I have been in the studio again the last couple of days to be sure that some new tracks will come your way soon! Have fun listening for now and see you soon! Hasta la vista!

I would like to thank you all for giving me the inspiration during my trips to record new songs and podcasts. Playing live for you guys is such an amazing feeling! All the communal love and energy I see during my shows is mind-blowing. So thank you for showing and sharing this with me. This podcast I’d like to dedicate to two people. First one is my mom.
