the interview show: alan braxe

It’s impossible to discuss house music in the early 2000s without mentioning Alan Braxe. If you were high on E in a sweaty basement back in the day, you will know all his tunes. Even now, Stardust’s “The Music Feels Better With You” is a club staple, even classic.

Braxe, born Alain Queme, hails from Brax, a region in the southwest of France. And note, “Braxe” is pronounced like “ax.”

Recently, Braxe lit up the music blogs after he got into a scuffle with DJ Assault. Could this be the beginning of the DJ beef? After talking to Braxe, it is hard to imagine such a calm sophisticated French man is prone to fisticuffs. Listen to the show to hear the full story.

    Note: at the Alan Braxe show Bee, Hunk, Lex, Flores and Scott all met for the very first time! (Well ok, Flores, Lex and Hunk already knew each other…) but you get the idea.
