Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #43 (Changes) Jun 18, 2020

Show notes

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 water. From a bushfire to so much plastic in the ocean (and thus: our bodies if we consume seafood). Talking about BLM…..I am white and I feel ashamed for myself and my ancestors who have been part of history and the present time where people of colour were and are treated differently. I genuinely hope that we all can make a change. Underneath our colour is a human of flesh, blood, a heart, senses and two ears. So without making this too much of a political talk. Let’s try to create a change, all of us, to make society more equal to all. And coming back to your senses and two ears….please have a listen to my new podcast. This podcast is definitely a memorable one for me cause although I am still very privileged, I find it hard to see so much pain and inequality going on in the world. Be strong, share love with each other and be respectful. It will help us all. Love, Alex

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #42 (Real Love) Mar 16, 2020

Show notes

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 is love and live with our full intention and live our lives from our heart and hopefully being very passionate about our mission. We all have our missions in life, one has a bigger impact to the world than others but we all have our roles which are all very important. We all can make changes. We need to be present today because we don’t have a clue what will happen in the next few days, weeks, months. Not to ourselves and not to our loved ones or any other people on this planet. So this is also a time for new opportunities for many. Don’t we want to do what we love, just follow your heart, intuition, listen to what’s inside. Isn’t that what really matters? Let’s be grateful for what we have and for all the people who are fighting for other peoples lives, not only these days but year round. They are our heroes! We can be our own heroes by fully listening to our core, then we can be proud of who we are. Be intentional and honest to yourself and follow that. And most of all be kind, be loving, be helpful to people who need it most. Do you have an older neighbour or friend or family member who is too afraid to go outside to do grocery shopping? Please help them, buy their groceries or cook them a meal, show them some love and kindness and don’t forget to smile. I know, it’s not always easy but it can make a difference to yourself and the ones around you. Give yourself and others some real love. Thank you.

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #41 (Purification) Jan 09, 2020

Show notes

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 on and nice healthy cooking gear with natural produce and ingredients. And so there is less distraction around me so I can focus in a more clean way on music and spending time with my loved ones. With that in mind I made this new podcast. Enjoy the ride and hope to see you somewhere on this planet in 2020 or another time this decade. Smile and be kind, love and feel loved, sounds to me as a good start of every day.

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #40 (Playa Special // Burning Man 2019) Oct 17, 2019

Show notes

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 and all of a sudden showed up in a very small tipi. I was wearing a hat and goggles so I thought no-one would recognise me……well….I was wrong! It was so wonderful to finally meet her in real life after have been in touch on social media for some years. Another one was to run into my ‘One Golden’ friend for 3 times during the 4 days I was there. Believe me, that is hard on such a big playa with 70.000 people being there. A few other highlights were playing the magical 747 Boeing airplane with many of my friends and my percussion friend Caleb on my side. I played a set for him and his wife Levina right before their wedding and then another remarkable set was at the art car called ‘Smile High’. I played a 3 hour set with all these beautiful people on and off the car in front of that beautiful art piece. It was very special to finally play this set for one of my close friends who runs the art car on the playa…..a gift from him to me to play his amazing art car and a gift from me to him to finally play on his ‘baby’ while being ‘fed’ by my friend Cristo, who is such a humble and talented artist. Well, listen to it yourself and let me know if you like it please? Much love! Alex

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #38 (Live Set @Space Cowboys // AfrikaBurn 2019) May 30, 2019

Show notes

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 likes 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 Suikerbossie in Cape Town (thanks to Caroline/Karen to make that happen again). So I already had a nice warm-up for the South African crowd. I never have expectations before I play somewhere because I always want to go all-in with a blank mind. And so I did on this trip as well. But knowing what the crowd and atmosphere was the years before I always feel very excited to bring some nice pieces of music with me. Please listen yourself what happened during this sunset set. After ‘Follow The Sun’ we went into nighttime mode and although the temperature dropped my heart was heated by the love and happy faces I saw in front of me. Hasta La Vista and till next time!

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #37 (India Pool Party) Apr 04, 2019

Show notes

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 after that. A lucky guy I am, I realise that over and over again. At the same time I am on my path of creating and playing music to bring lightness to the world. There is much light and much dark sides on this planet but it is all about perspective. The half empty or half full glass. I try to live it with half of a full glass. Please let me know what you think of this podcast? What is your favourite track and I know I have said it before but #38 will be a Club Mix. So you have an idea what I do in a nightclub when playing live there :-) Enjoy it for now! And cease the day. Much love, Alex

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #36 (Live in Cairo) Dec 22, 2018

Show notes

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 to see at all. Overall another wonderful week in my life. 2018 was a very special year with many highlights. I want to thank all of you who listen to my music over and over again and also make it to shows I am playing all over the world. I love days in the studio creating these new songs, edits and remixes but I feel most alive when I am able to feel the energy in a club, rooftop or pool party and share the happy energy where we can all connect together and fuel our hearts and souls. Merry Christmas to all of you. I hope you will be able to spend these days with your beloved ones. Focus, be loving and kind and with a simple smile on our face we can make this world a better place. Enjoy my new Deep & Sexy with your friends and families. Till soon! Alex Free download via iTunes/podcasts. There is a link added to this track. Enjoy!

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #35 (New York Rooftop) Oct 11, 2018

Show notes

Follow the Deep & Sexy playlist on Spotify: bit.ly/AlexCrPL Lovely people! It has been a while…..silence before the storm that’s what they say then…..because….here is Deep & Sexy #35. Why Deep & Sexy? That’s what people every now and then ask me. The answer is as simple as the question. I try to bring you close to your core through touching you deep down there in your heart. What’s better to get there through lovely sexy vibes? 6 years ago I was still only playing in Holland and played often together with an MC (MC Haits) who also travels the world now spreading love through his vocals. He was the one who always came to me and literally kept repeating himself by the words: you play such f**cking Deep & Sexy tunes like Solomun. So a year later when I started my podcast series I already had the name of my podcast series. Next month I will bring you a more energetic/dancy/clubby version of what I do when I play in nightclubs so you also have a feel of what I do when the night is falling and the sun is down. For now, enjoy this podcast from the Rooftop in New York and don’t forget to be present and feel all your senses. Love, Alex www.facebook.com/alexcruzofficial for a free download

Alex Cruz - Deep & Sexy Podcast #34 (AfrikaBurn 2018) Jun 14, 2018

Show notes

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, sand, sun...it's all there. And then there is the people, meeting random people, people you already saw before and just having fun with them, share food, water, music, art structures and/or meaningful conversations. It's all there and brings us in my opinion a little closer to our cores, probably closer to how our ancestors were living. And then....being able to play music for the people who are there.....it feels like a blessing to share that and seeing all these happy faces, dancing and moving bodies. Nothing to worry, just feel and hear the music and enjoy it with the people around you/us......so the inspiration of this podcast brings me back to AfrikaBurn 2018. I am looking forward to be back next year. For now: Enjoy this musical journey! Love, Alex www.facebook.com/alexcruzofficial for a free download
