Awakenings Podcast S375 - ALI3N

"138 BPM throughout. A raw, hypnotic, and driving podcast focused on bringing great music together in a meaningful way. The idea was to let different producers and their ideas coexist, overlap, and interact, creating new rhythms and subtle nuances rather than letting tracks run on their own. A lot of attention went into selection, timing, and precise frequency work. Every transition and filter movement was intentional. The selection leans heavily on very recent releases, with a few unreleased gems included to give space to artists and sounds you might not have heard before, including one or two by myself, woven in naturally as part of the story".

Based in Berlin and originally from NRW, he fuses hypnotic grooves with industrial edges, tribal rhythms, and space-inspired textures, crafting sets that don’t just move bodies, but reach deep into the soul. Music has always been more than sound for ALI3N. Shaped by a childhood of piano and saxophone lessons and diverse family influences, his journey began early, but it was the loss of a parent that turned music into a lifeline. Behind every set lies a deeper purpose: to create space for vulnerability, healing, and human connection. For him, the dancefloor is sacred, a place where emotion meets rhythm, and people remember they’re not alone. At the decks, ALI3N is pure intensity: fully present, locked in, and guided by instinct. His style blends emotional depth with a sharp ear for both modern production and forgotten classics, connecting generations through sound. Whether playing in raw basements or iconic venues like RSO, Tresor, Elysia, and FI Cologne, his mission is always the same, bring people together through music that feels. He’s been trusted by crews like We Are Not Alone and BCCO, and his debut releases are set to arrive in 2025, tracks built on emotion, honesty, and a relentless drive to evolve. Off-stage, ALI3N remains grounded in community. He collaborates with artists like J.Manuel and Daryn Steytler, and makes it a point to connect personally with his audience. Long-term, he’s committed to giving back through creative, charity-based projects in Jamaica and Ethiopia, a tribute to his cultural roots and his desire to build something greater than himself. Don’t let the shadows fool you. ALI3N isn’t hiding, he’s revealing. One track at a time.
