Maandag 25 december, 1e kerstdag, organiseren Fok!kers Tomaz en jackson weer een trancefeest in de Poema te Utrecht! Check voor details hierquote:Though trance was still in a rather minimal stage during the beginning of the second half of the 90´s, Alex held on and started producing some of his first tracks ever. The first single under his *Alex M.O.R.P.H.* guise was born, carrying the title *Paysages*. Wagonloads of tunes in different styles followed. One of his first collaborations was done together with Ralf Merle, with whom he created the Badlands project. *Let Them Know* hit followed up by two more tunes. Right at the start of the new millennium, Alex found himself a definite home for a lot of his future productions:Clubbgroove Records! With experienced label-manager Woody van Eyden looking after him, he started to craze the minds of thousands of trance fans by bringing classic after classic. Together with his production mates Markus Welt and Ralf Merle, he launched the M.O.R.P.H. name. First up was *Supernova*, but the real buzz started when *Maximum Overdrive* started to get plays from loads and loads of jocks around the globe. ID-T picked it up and released it exclusively for the Benelux. In between, another work of art called Alex M.O.R.P.H. - *Klangwelt* was released, this time co-produced by none less than Andre Tanneberger aka ATB! Featuring a true chill-out remix, this was definitely a big step forward in Alex`s ever enhancing sound. But of course that wasn`t it: two more mind shizzling tracks followed under the M.O.R.P.H. moniker. *Consequence* and *Creatures*. By bringing inventive and highly uplifting piece of modern trance. Signum, AJ Gibson and GandM Project were the next artists to receive a M.O.R.P.H. rework, all doing the rounds in everyone`s recordboxes in no time. Another huge leap was created by the introduction of the Arc In The Sky project on the *Creatures* vinyl, being a brand new collaboration with 2 new productiontalents Henry Nix and Matthias Gierth. The overall sound of this newly born musical baby could be described as tough and experimental, yet always retaining a melodic vibe.
In September 2003, Woody van Eyden created a new brand concentrating purely on trance business: Fenology. Because of Alex`s musical knowledge and feel he was asked to stay at the newly found label, which he gladly did. Arc In The Sky dazzled the crowd with their second remix, a blasting interpretation of Woody van Eyden`s *Unfinished Symphony*, Fenology`s first release ever. The first few months of 2004 meant the definite breakthrough for Alex M.O.R.P.H. The vinyl *Flaming Clouds* entered the shops and got plays from Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, Johan Gielen and a whole bunch of other highly respected crowd entertainers. With the end of 2004 nearing, things started to speed up in an amazing way for Alex. December ’04 was the perfect time to put out the third Alex M.O.R.P.H. single called *Unification*, being a very original trancer with a truly astonishing melody powered by that distinct Alex bassline and percussion, played by Ferry Corsten for months and included in his personal top 5. Alex`s style was undergoing some very positive developments; it became even more energetic, with every element carefully placed to ensure maximum response all over the globe. With this, Alex created a huge fan base all over the globe, which inspired him to create even more groundbreaking tracks. His remixes for Mindcrusher – *Vision05*, Lennox – *Servant Of Justice*, Kenny Hayes` *Ibiza Sky* and Koris vs DJule`s *Sense of Time* were all played to infinity by the number 3 DJ of the world, Armin van Buuren, as well as dozens of other jocks. Mister van Buuren liked all these tracks so much so he eventually asked Alex to remix his single *Shivers*. Released on Supra and Armada Music, this remix became Armin`s personal favourite mix of *Shivers*, as well as the fave of many, many trance fans. Just a few weeks before this, *New Harvest* appeared on Trance Nation 20, mixed exclusively by Alex M.O.R.P.H. himself. Causing hypes all over the place, this became a much demanded track all over the trance scene! Again prevailing his style, but this time just slightly altered to measure with the needs of all you hungry trance lovers out there.
Dark Reveal, Tribal Jedi`s first single release, saw the light of day not long after, being a dark trancer with a progressive twist. The year 2005 also included the release of the long awaited second Arc In The Sky single, *Kissed*. This one once again showed that Alex is a super-diversified producer: this wasn’t trance at all, but more a meaty breakbeat affair with sinister effects, lots of badass bass and some very well fitting, strange vocal moans. Next to this, a mysterious Arc In The Sky Remix for Deep Drive’s ‘The Rider’ appeared on the UK based Recover label, as well as a new production under the Ohm Boys guise called ‘Down Under (Atlantis)’. Alex has steadily become one of the trance scene’s favourite remixers. Tunes by the likes of ATB, Solarstone, Matt Darey and Andy Moor were added to the list that got the full M.O.R.P.H. treatment, one by one being supported by all the A-list jocks. During the first few months of 2006, lots of stuff happened in Alex’s ever evolving production career: first of all, he was asked to remix artists on many high quality labels, including Super8 and DJ Tab (Anjunabeats), Jochen Miller (High Contrast), Markus Schulz and Gabriel and Dresden (Armada), Sophie Sugar (ATCR) and Tatana (Sirup). Fred Baker’s Sensation Belgium 2006 Anthem also received a powerful interpretation. Together with Woody van Eyden and vocalist Kate Peters, he also released the powerful vocal trance anthem called *Heavenly*, which was mega supported by Paul van Dyk and came with a batch of interesting remixes. But the main big thing that was going on was of course the production of Alex’s first ever artist album, titled *Miles and M.O.R.P.H.*. It features two separate CD’s, one including a massive array of brand new solo productions and collaborations, while the other one is a selection of the best remixes that Alex has delivered to date. A few great, respectable and clut-trance artists worked together with him to make this a more than memorable album.
Rank 1, Talla 2XLC, Woody van Eyden, Misja Helsloot, Ferrin and Low, Mike Koglin, Duderstadt and Christian Weber all sat down with him, with a few of the tunes including vocals by amazing quality vocalists like Roberta Harrison, Karen Iris or Kate Peters.
Kan je Woody van Eyden in de TT even veranderen in Alex M.O.R.P.H.quote:Op donderdag 21 december 2006 21:41 schreef Messenga het volgende:
