«A life without music is something I can’t imagine at all. Music has always been somehow there. Not just on the radio, not just on records. But most of all, in my head.

Hello, I’m Alex Analog, and I make music.

I started writing my own songs as a little child, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. I didn’t learn it in school or in a course, it was more like melodies and lyrics sneaked into my head, and they wanted to come out into the world. My mother had an old keyboard at home, two keys were broken. I played my songs on it, without ever releasing them to the world.

There are artists who plan their songs outright. And then write, record, and release them strategically. Who write a summer hit in December so they can release it in June. I can’t do that. And I don’t even want to. And I doubt it has anything to do with art.

But for me, a good song is an artistic creation. A piece of art. It has to bring something new. Something original. Something that wasn’t there before, at least not like this, in this form or in this way. That’s why I discard ideas right away when they become clichéd or stereotypical. I find such music boring and replaceable. I think that’s also why I don’t like cover songs. And why my music isn’t easily categorized into a drawer or a genre.
