Hello friends, welcome to another Deep & Sexy episode (Stillness). During our hectic, active and distracted lives it feels like it’s harder and harder to find stillness inside. I am personally very curious so it feels like my mind is always on. For that reason I build in moments of peace and silence into my days. I find the most awareness and even creativity during those moments. Imagine walking outside and hearing absolutely nothing……where in the world is that even possible? If you find that spot consider yourself fortunate. On another note: enjoy my new creation. I hope you find a state of peace while listening to it. Till the next time!

Welcome to my new Deep & Sexy podcast! There are times that we need the sparks of people around us. It’s a great reminder to fuel our own sparks as well and shine bright into the world. It’s all about what we focus on. We are powerful and can have an impact on the people around us and maybe even bigger, the communities we are part of and from there spread that frequency to even more people. It’s very contagious to me when I see someone in their full power. Whether it’s an athlete getting ready for his/her ultimate race at the Olympics or just someone being loving and caring towards their loved ones. I see powerful sparks when that happens in front of me. So I want to remind you to focus on your own spark and show and share them with the people around you. Cause that will fuel their sparks inside them. Enjoy the musical ride! Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Every year that I attend Burning Man is completely different from any other year. And so was this one. I arrived Sunday late night in Reno, slept and saw the weather forecast…I decided to see my friend at Lake Tahoe and got a close eye onto the weather forecast and the Burning Man page on X. Rain, road closures, strong winds, gate closures…it just kept on going…. My first gig was planned at 10:30pm at Soundgarden on Wednesday evening so I had some time before I ‘needed’ to be there. Finally Wednesday early morning I packed up all my stuff, last Wholefoods run and off I went. Arriving at the sandy road, right off of the paved road, I immediately noticed many cars getting stuck after slipping and sliding in the mud. All I focused on was to keep on moving with my car because once I was gonna stop, I knew I would have been stuck in the mud like many others around me. I made it to the end of the line cause the gate was (again) closed. But pfew……I did not get stuck and was a little closer to getting in. After being in line for a closed gate for about 5 hours the line started moving again and I was secretly still hoping to be in time for my set at Soundgarden later that evening. Hours passed by but I got closer and closer. Once I was in I drove straight to my camp, parked my car, got changed, jumped on my bike and made my way over to Soundgarden. I arrived at the camp and had just heard about a power outage but the sound was back on, there was music so I headed over to the dj booth and gracefully took over the decks. Welcome to Burning Man. Within 24 hours I played that set, early am at Bubbles and Bass the next morning and after that I played in the magical PlayAlchemist Pyramid Thursday evening for their Gold night. What a special place, what a powerful atmosphere and so much joy and playfulness I saw while playing there. With so many of my friends showing up and so many new faces in front of me and behind me in the booth I enjoyed every second of the musical journey out there. Thanks Berge for showing up a little later than expected so I was able to play a little longer than initially scheduled. That’s also Burning Man. Thank you all for the love and support and the standing ovation! Deep gratitude for you all and everyone at PlayAlchemist for bringing this magical pyramid to the Burn. ❤️ Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Last weekend I played a birthday party off of the coast of Cartagena on a private island. First of all, I love Colombia. For some reason the people always strike me with their open heart and kindness. It is probably one of my favourite countries in the world. The people and beauty of the country make me feel like home. Secondly, I felt very inspired to create a new podcast after this event. So I buried myself in my studio and the result you’ll find here. I hope you’ll enjoy this new journey. My apologies for not having created a new podcast sooner than now, my calendar has been extremely full with lots of travel but I am glad I dedicated the time to gift you another Deep & Sexy podcast. Enjoy it and don't forget to share it with your favourite people! Let me know how you like it? Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Hello beautiful people! Please welcome my new creation here! I hope you will like it, I put a lot of effort in this one, probably edited all of the tracks that I used to create that, in my opinion, unique storyline where you feel like you are taken on a journey. I personally always love driving in my car and listen to it while I enjoy the beautiful nature around me. But that’s me. I called it Passion. Why? Because I feel like we need to spark our inner passion more. Sometimes we live our lives too habitual, days and weeks fly by and before we know it it’s already mid November. So I would like to encourage you to sit still, look deep within and ask yourself what lights your inner fire? Whatever it is, please do more of that for the last 1.5 month of this year. Live with (more) passion, cause you will feel more alive and vibrant and people around you will notice that. And don’t we want to be around more vibrant people in our lives? Enjoy this ride and if you like this podcast, please don’t forget to like it and share it with your community. Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Time for some summer tunes!! That was literally what I was feeling when I was going through my music and selected these tunes that gave me that summer feeling. I hope you’ll enjoy this mix as much as I liked creating it. It’s been quite the summer already with more travel coming up soon where I am super excited for and then in less than a month from now I will be playing 4 gigs at Burning Man as well. Stay tuned for when and where that will be. For now, enjoy your summer in the Northern hemisphere. For those underneath the equator, I hope this will get you ready for spring to come soon! Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Hello beautiful people! Welcome to Deep & Sexy Podcast #57. Every time I work on a podcast I feel so unbelievably joyful. You cannot imagine what it feels like to create something that I share with all of you. All the joy I have upfront by imagining what you’d think of the tracks, the journey and transitions and how it makes you feel. I truly hope it gives you as much joy as it does to me. I have been able to work in the studio a lot the last few weeks to be able to release a lot of new songs on Spotify the next months. I’m off soon to Europe and Africa to do some gigs and I’ll have studio time with my friend Brascon in Berlin as well so I am super excited for all of that. Have a listen and hope you’ll enjoy my new podcast. Much love! Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Hello lovely people!! Please find here a recording of one of the sets I played at Burning Man this year. It was my Thursday evening set at Titanic’s End. It was an absolute pleasure to play there and see so many of my friends show up and of course many others. Burning Man is always a special time, especially this year with some rain and muddy, fun times after and during. Thank you all for seeing me at live events this year and listening to my music on Spotify and Soundcloud. I feel very grateful for all the messages I receive where many of you share very personal things with me. It’s an honour to touch so many of you. Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and New Year and hope to see you somewhere on this globe next year. Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Welcome to a new Deep & Sexy journey! This time my theme is ‘peace’. Maybe an obvious one. There is always need for more peace, whether it’s on a global level or on a smaller level. Everywhere we need more peace. Peace between countries is probably the one most needed these days. But don’t forget the peace in classrooms where kids are bullied by others. Not only happens it at schools, it happens at the corporation where you or your neighbor might be working as well. So please look around you and try to show up for people who need it. Also….it doesn’t mind to be more kind. Just be aware of it to try to show up with kindness and compassion. There is a story behind everyone. From the outside we can’t see what’s all going on in the human in front of us or next to us. Enjoy some music now…..hope you’ll be able to enjoy and share it with your friends. Much love, Alex Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Afrikaburn 2023….what another adventure that was. I played two sets. One at my beloved Space Cowboys and the second one at the Bridges For Music camp, called Ubuhlanti. Saturday night, a packed venue (yes, I would call it a venue) and an amazing African female artist playing before me, creating a high energy amongst the crowd. My turn….so much fun, so many happy faces, so much love to share. Being at AfrikaBurn is always one of my highlights of the year and this year was definitely not an exception to that. Enough words….enjoy the music and the vibe! See you soon somewhere on this planet! Love, Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Welcome to my 53rd podcast! Breathe….it’s probably the most important thing in life and I practice it consciously almost every day. Why? Cause it brings me back into my body whenever I feel a little out of touch with it. Nowadays there are many ‘teachers’ who can help with this. I still do my practise with the good old Wim Hof and recently I discovered another amazing breath coach Finnian Kelly who was able to bring me very deep back into my own body. Thank you Finnian for guiding me there. After a breath session I dove into my catalogue of music and created another podcast for you all. The last few weeks I was able to work on a lot of new releases for the next coming months as well, so keep an eye on my Spotify channel. I am very excited for many of this releases which I will gradually share with you throughout the year. For now, be safe and stay well. If you like this podcast please don't forget to like and share it with your loved ones. Love, Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hello beautiful people. I really enjoyed making this podcast for you all. I never listen back to any of my podcasts after I have made them but yesterday I gave myself over an hour to fully listen to what I recorded and what came to mind for me during this car ride was that it felt like a journey. Many of you have shared with me in the past that my podcasts take you on a journey. And now I witnessed that myself. So….long story short, enjoy this ride, enjoy this journey. We all have our own journeys in life and my journey for the next year feels like I will be able to bring you lots of beautiful originals, covers, remixes and of course these Deep & Sexy Podcasts. Wishing you a beautiful last month of the year ahead and thanks for sharing my music with your friends, family members, Uber drivers, coffee shops and many others. Much love! Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL One of my happiest moments of the year is when I go to AfrikaBurn. Being there in the middle of nowhere, no civilization, people building shelter and accommodation for a few days, being there for a few days to a week, break off everything and leaving no trace. In the middle of all that I find myself in such a luxurious position where I can see many of my friends, spend time with them without having the distraction of phones, e-mail etc. Being fully present with the people there and then also being able to share music with them….that to me is such a blessing and I think you can hear that back in my sets. So…..I played another set at Space Cowboys and I felt so much joy, I saw so much pure joy in peoples eyes, body language and the sounds which came out of their mouths ;-) Enjoy the live set I played there with the sound of the audience in it as well. Much love! Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL After being on the road again the last 3 months with multiple amazing events and with a few very special moments in my heart I decided it’s time again to share (parts of) my live sets again. I played a set a month ago at Public Works in San Francisco and it was an absolute magical night. One out of many the last few months to be honest…..so here you’ll find part of the set that I played that night. My next one (51) will be my live recorded set at AfrikaBurn of late April of this year. So a little more patience on that one. I hope you’ll like this one. It has a few of my currently favourites in it. Listen to it with good company and don’t forget to (sun)shine in your life. Life is way too short…..I just recently noticed that with a sudden death of a close friend’s dad and another close friend got diagnosed with cancer…..let’s be grateful for what we have because life is not infinite. Much love, Alex

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Here we go! Freshly squeezed for all of you: my new Deep & Sexy podcast. I am very grateful for all the people I am surrounded with in my life and I am also very grateful that I am able to do what I love in life. Looking at what is happening these days in for example Ukraine is very painful to watch. In the part of the world where I am living, many people have choices. ‘If’ we have choices, my opinion is that we have a responsibility to be there for others who don’t have options and choices. With my music I try to reach as many people as possible who resonate with my creations and mixes. Hopefully it helps people to get something out of it, no matter what it is. Let me know your thoughts on this podcast and I will be back soon with a new song on Spotify. Much love! Alex
