- Alex O'Rion -
Alex's Meanwhile remixes of GMJ & Matter’s 'Gauntlet' were a notable highlight alongside a stellar 2020 and now with his inimitable style and flair, his remix of 'The Path' builds on the deep undulating groove of the original while building a new bassline component that bristles with intent, emotion and dancefloor prowess. Using the central arpeggiated motif of the track, richly textured pads provide new melodic direction as white-noise washes crash against the rhythmic bedrock in pulsating waves. The resultant interpretation finds O’Rion at his consummate best with a flawless mix of technique and precision.

Hailing from a long line of talented Dutch producers, Alex O’Rion is one of the brightest stars to recently emerge on Hernan Cattaneo’s SUDBEAT label. He started to experiment with music at 14 yrs old, inspired by Sasha, Nick Warren and John Digweed. Although his first appearance was in the trance scene, Alex soon found out that deep progressive music was his passion.

With 150 releases on beatport on labels such as Sudbeat, Hope, and Cid Inc's Replug, he has seen support from Hernán Cattáneo, Nick Warren, Guy J, Cid Inc, Eelke Kleijn, Guy Mantzur, and Quivver, amongst many others.

2019 saw him playing for Sudbeat’s Showcase in Amsterdam’s Westergasfabriek plus notable appearances at Nature One Festival in Germany, Ministry Of Sound in London and Es Paradis in Ibiza.
