Full story

Alex Coollook is a French/Greek musician, born in Athens, Greece in 1975. His turn towards electronic music came at the age of 21, in 1996, when he moved to England to study. At that time, the big “explosion” of the trance music scene was taking place both in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands (with the famous now Oakenfold, Sasha, van Buuren and the rest doing their first steps) and the DJ job was becoming on of the most prestigious in these countries. Alex started collecting vinyls and CDs, and started playing gigs in the region. During that time, he visited all the famous London and Great Britain clubs, festivals and raves, and travelled a lot to neighboring Holland.

At the beginning of 2008, he was approached by Bonzai Music, and he released numerous tracks including remixes by the magician of Trance Laurent Veronnez (aka Airwave, Planisphere) and Perfecto wonderkid, Robert Vadney just to name a few. Alex has hosted regular weekly shows on FM radio stations across Greece and other radio stations worldwide since 2008.

Alex Coollook starts his own show on EILO called "Balkan Delights". The show will be broadcast every Monday, starts 16:00 GMT on EILO Radio.
