By 1995, he was ready to break into Electronic music production, contributing a track to the "5 Star Galaxy" compilation in the company of producer Patrick "Rollercone" Duvoisin.

The following year he set up the Bel - Air Project, and began attracting attention with their first release "Magik", which was featured on one of the famous Sourcelab compilations. Bel-Air Project's next two releases became minor underground cult classics "Jazz with Altitude" and "Dark Jazzor" were both championed by the likes of 4 Hero, Gilles Peterson and Stacey Pullen. At the same time, Alex also set up his own record label Corn-Flex and was busy collaborating under different guises, with Paul Martin as Beatless and with his Bel-Air colleague as Funkanova. 1997 saw the demise of the Bel-Air Project and Alex moved to England to pursue new musical projects.

Mustang and Beatless are currently the main sources of his creative output (plus a few sporadic collaborations: River Plate with his brother Stephane, and Plutonia with Dego from 4 Hero). In 2000, Alex set up his new record label, Visions Inc., for which he's been busy recording with super keyboard whizzkid Jessica Lauren, producing tracks for soul singer Vanessa Freeman, and his own Mustang project. The first Beatless album "Life Mirrors" was released in October 2001 on the American label Ubiquity, featuring tracks recorded in San Francisco with the Daughters from the 70's band the Sons and Daughters of Lite, with Stones Throw rapper Quasimoto, and the multitalented Colonel Red. Around the same time, Irma Records from Italy released his "Quiet Moments" compilation, an assortment of chilled and space jazz tracks from the past to unwind to. ...show less
