It's not the first time that preconceptions have required resetting on this channel. In the instance of Aleksander Stawierej though, before we pierce some, we're going to proliferate a few!

Aleksander is the Warsaw-based keyholder to monikers like Raw Tech Audio & ACIDØ; the A&R warden of the Mental Asylum label and through his Indecent Noise guise, also the institution's foremost resident. The latter's an alias that - over the last 10 years - has become inextricably linked with the sound of the 303, leaving a size-12 musical bootprint on planet trance. One of the genre's more provocative agents certainly, but also notably an album-shy one - 'Everything Is Connected' representing his first LP foray.

Long-playing it is indeed, with the collection is made up of no less than 15 studio-hot cuts from the Pole. The album splits its track deck between solo offerings, co-productions & vocal collabs, topped off by some I.N. remixes and a less-than-expected cover. Included amongst are partnerships with vocalists like Noire Lee, as well as in-studio pairings with Lostly, EverLight, onTune, Diver & Ace and Renegade System.

Back to those aforementioned artistic predeterminations then, because (albeit in the less anticipatable of fashions) 'Everything Is Connected' explodes many of them. Aleksander's certainly delivered an album that expands tonally on his known-for remit, but not merely in the deeper/cooler direction. It also climbs 'north', (no mean feat when you're 'Mr. Acid') to euphoric summits and further still into hardstyle/core forms.
