He has opportunity to play in Great Britain, Germany, Czech Republic and in many cities in Poland.

"Alex is fast becoming one of Poland's biggest exports. His sound is fast and energetic and fit into my sets really well. He is pushing the harder, techier side of trance which a lot of people have now moved away from and is proving that there is still life in the genre. I won't be surprised if he gets his break in the next year or so and becomes on of the leading producers of this sound." Rob "Activa" Stevenson (Discover / Vandit)
