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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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,...

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...

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...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL One of my favourite moments of the year is when I work on a new podcast. I love playing live for people, which is, don’t get me wrong, amazing. One other aspect of what I do is working in the studio, I truly love the creation of a new podcast. My true desire while making it is to create a journey what gives the listeners (you) the feeling that they are being taken on an adventure. It’s like going out for a day trip and not...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL I am a true believer of when you really want to make something happen you need 5 letters for that. F O C U S. It’s not always easy and sometimes the circumstances make it hard. Also, we are not all that privileged on this planet that we’re able to decide what we want to do ourselves. But….when we have the possibility to be able to make choices and preferably try to aim to reach our (heart) goal we have the responsibility, in my...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL It took me a while after having moved to another country and a change in my personal life to find the inspiration and consistent workflow again. I am getting closer and closer and part of the consistency was creating this podcast for you. The first track I have loved for many years now and always wanted to do something with it, thanks Francesca for sharing the original with me. I finally felt inspired to grab it and give it some...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hello everyone! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you! This year has been a rollercoaster for all of us on this planet. For me personally it meant a lot of heavy weight on my shoulders whenever the pandemic hit us and many different kind of emotions during all the stages throughout the year. So many people have lost loved ones, lost their jobs, homes and (decent) food. All I can do is try to be there for my friends,...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Bringing sunshine, light, joy and touching YOU in your heart.....that's what I try to do while releasing podcasts, playing live or when I am in the studio creating new songs & remixes. In this day an age it's a little harder to receive, to see the light (also for me every now and then) but remember that your thoughts influence your feelings and shape your life in many ways. Easier said than done but practising on changing...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hello everyone! What a tornado we are all in this year. There is quite something going on in the world and BLM and Covid-19 affect more people compared to any other event over the last few years. There are still disasters going on everywhere on this planet where many people don’t even know about. From being homeless to losing your beloved one(s), being a refugee child or having a flooding which makes your house being under...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Hello everyone……yes, these days are very uncertain, very unknown. A virus which is spreading all over the world and causing so much damage and fear. A modern war in 2020……who could have expected this, exactly…..not many. That reminds me of life in general. This virus shows us again that planning our lives is almost impossible. We don’t have control of everything so therefore can’t predict any outcome of our plans. All we can do...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL A new year, a new decade. For me, I felt a strong desire for cleaning, cleaning my studio, cleaning my travelbag which I use soooo often and is with me more than half of the year. Cleaning my kitchen, getting rid of the toxic, non PFOA-free frying pan. A new start of a cleaner me. Being closer to purity. And it feels good, very good. I don’t need a lot of material, the material I want is my studio gear, a nice mattress to sleep...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Music Lovers! Please find here my Burning Man 2019 podcast! It was already 4 years ago that I attended ‘The Burn’ in Nevada and this year I was very drawn to go back to the Playa to celebrate life and play some sets in the middle of the desert. I had some beautiful serendipitous moments running into people I would never have thought to run into. One special one was that I ran into my Pakistani friend who is a well-known actress...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Lovers of Music! Here we go again, this time with a 2,5 hour live set I played at AfrikaBurn earlier this month. Being at AfrikaBurn is always such a highlight of the year for me. Being there with people I love and then playing for a crowd who really like what I am doing! (Lucky me ;-)) This year I played for the Leopard Mafia on Wednesday and on Thursday for the Space Cowboys. The week before I played at another sold out...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Here we go with Deep & Sexy Podcast #37!! Last week I was in India for a couple of days and got fully inspired after that. So firstly I created a new podcast and secondly I worked on some new originals, remixes and edits. So yeah, it was a very inspiring trip. I met so many interesting, kind, open hearted and passionate people and that is such a privilege to then play music for them and also build a connection before and...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Sometimes you have these travel weeks where you keep on flying and it really felt that I spent more time on planes and airports than I spent time in the countries where I was. I went from a very nice intimate setting in Denver to a Finnish Sauna in Helsinki, to my first gig ever (finally) in Cairo, Egypt and ended that week in London at the Madison. I met many new people and also had encounters with people who I did not expect...

What’s better to get there through lovely sexy vibes? 6 years ago I was still only playing in Holland and...

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL AfrikaBurn has a special spot in my heart. The reason why is the people I have met over the last 3 times I was there. There is something about being in an area with no buildings, roads or whatsoever. People build their own 'camps/homes/tent structures' to be able to live out of there for a couple of days to a week. And one very important thing: no cell phone service, no wifi, no tv, no billboards.....instead of that: wind, rain,...
