Alex P - D.J., party man(iac), legend. One of the 'old school' of DJs, there during the early days of house music, he has become somewhat of an elder statesman of the scene - been most places, done most things, just about survived to tell the tale. Early gigs came at the almighty Sunrise raves in the U.K., some of the notorious, infamous raves that attracted major press headlines at the end of the 80s. After playing to thousands at such an early point in his career, the next point for a young DJ at that time was Ibiza, a place that helped shape the reputation of Alex in several ways. After holding a residency at Amnesia, he then became the resident at the newly opened Space. After working there for a few months, a moment of inspiration changed the clubbing world. Alex decided to put some decks behind the bar of the Space chill-out area and to call it 'The Full Moon Terrace Bar'. You know the rest from there. Alex began to get worldwide bookings, and soon became one of the headliners for most of the major house nights in and around the U.K. His anarchic relationship with best mate Brandon Block blossomed during the mid-nineties - house music and clubbing was still relatively fresh and their hedonistic adventures were of the time and were told and retold with gusto by eager magazines and fans all around. They were the epitome of a good night out - no cares, as much fun as you could handle and hilarious tales to tell afterwards. In 1996 London's Kiss F.M. gave Alex and Brandon a Friday night drive time show that was about as far removed from the normal perception of a radio show as is humanly possible. 'Anarchy on air' is one, not too wide of the mark, description. Ratings soared for the station such was the popularity of the show, but all good things must come to an end, and they left on a high and called it a day in 2002. His new Baby is SOSO's an invitation only collective with the same passion for House music and to Party! SOSO's is all about the People, Music and Venue and is currently working with Hedges and Butler and Gilgamesh to bring the best night in London town. Alex has presented numerous shows on TV for MTV, SKY, KISS FM, KISS TV and RAPTURE TV and won several DJ awards including his radio show with Brandon Block. Alex is currently presenting Peezee's Phat Beats transmitted on FM and net for PASSIONFMLIVE.co.uk Alex P and Sonny J Mason currently have 2 tracks working the dance floors 'I See You' and 'Let's Get Together' Alex has produced and wrote many songs as Alex P and as The Devil Inside and had some memorable collaboration work, the most recent with Tony Thompson, Lonyo, and Sonny J Mason. Alex P is and will continue to be synonymous with 'House Music' By his peers Alex is regarded as a Legend and a Gentleman
