ALEK SANDAR
Whether sitting in the 50 year old wing chair in his humble home in
West ViIlage, Manhattan, laying on the bare timber piling of his artsy
pre-war apartment in former East Berlin, or looking out of the windows
onto the bustling city in his place in central old Sofia, Alek Sandar
draws inspiration from every facet of life. The Sofia-born Bulgarian
has lived in Cuba, Germany, Paris, New York and London-different
cultures, people from different nations, with different tastes and
unique perspectives on life, love, art and beauty have shaped him and
set his mind free: “No single person has the right to classify people into groups or stereotypes. The soul has no color; it has no gender and no height. Neither has Music or the Arts, for love knows no language or boundaries (…) .” he

Bulgarian National Group Radiodeca (Radiochildren) at the early age of 5 years. At the age of only 8, Alek Sandar composed his very first song, a ballad dedicated to his sister. In the same year, Alek has his very first appearance in the prestigious TV show
Kato Luvovete (Like The Lions) in front of a national audience. In the early 1990s, the emerging severe economic crisis forces his family to leave the country of Bulgaria for his father can no longer assure a future for his family from the earnings of his career as an opera singer in Sofia. Struck by these emotionally challenging circumstances, and shattered by the inability to process the truth, Alek withdrew into himself and
shut himself away. Alek Sandar spends his early teenage years in the peaceful German town Oldenburg, where he continues being on stage. Taking acting classes for several years and experiencing an extraordinary, dramatic first love, he discovers the highs and lows in life at an early stage. The developments in these early years of his life have a very strong impact on him identifying with numerous leading roles in productions of the German National Theater Staatstheater Oldenburg. While always excelling in school, Alek starts to spin records as a DJ at school parties and smaller clubs in Northern Germany for several years and sets up his first home studio and starts producing music electronically, enabling him to express his inner emotions.
