I. PLAY. MUSIC.

EMM4NUEL X., also known as Emmanuel Xander, is a dynamic DJ whose musical journey encapsulates a profound passion for electronic rhythms and underground culture. Originating from France's vibrant Grand-Est region and extending his influence across Switzerland and the UK's Dorset area, EMM4NUEL X.'s sets are a rich tapestry of techno, house, afro house, tech house, melodic house & techno, acid, progressive, trance and harder dance styles.
His journey began in his teenage years, deeply inspired by an eclectic blend of highlife music, iconic 90s French rap and hip-hop and pioneering breakbeat and bass music from the UK. Early inspirations included MC Solaar, Roni Size, DJ Zinc, and DJ Mehdi, whose fusion of hip-hop and electronic music profoundly influenced his sound.
Immersed initially in hardstyle and trance, EMM4NUEL X. quickly evolved, driven by the freedom and authenticity found in France's infamous free party scene. His early experiences, from attending the legendary Goliath rave in Switzerland at just 17 to clandestine woodland free parties have shaped his signature sound: a captivating blend with techno at its core, around which every other style orbits.
Following a significant hiatus during his 20s, EMM4NUEL X. has returned to the scene with renewed energy and passion, eager to reconnect with audiences and continue sharing his unique musical vision.
Now with respectable experience behind the decks, EMM4NUEL X. has carved out a distinct niche in underground electronic circles, known for DJ mixes charged with energy and depth. He notably hosts the monthly podcast " EMM4NUEL X Friday Night Sessions," dedicated to showcase the freshest sounds in house, techno, progressive, melodic house & techno, dance, electronica and bass music, earning him recognition and followers across platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, hearthis.at and Apple Podcasts.
EMM4NUEL X. continues to push boundaries, his sets reflecting an ever-evolving dialogue between raw underground vibes and meticulously curated electronic landscapes, inviting listeners to explore music as a universal language of freedom and unity.
