Aleks Craine Delivers Stellar Solo Production ‘Rooftop’!

After coming in contact with music at the very young age of 5, Swiss/Russian artist Aleks Craine was destined to make an impact in the music industry. Learning how to play the piano and violin has helped her shape her own signature melodic style that we can see in each and every one of her releases. She become fascinated by electronic music through her older sister who was listening to the dance hits of the late 1990’s. After moving from Russia to Switzerland she experimented with some music softwares from time to time but didn’t invest all of her time into it. At the age of 20, she learned how to DJ by herself, attending a regional DJ contest and since then she has started to play at various clubs and events in Switzerland.

Producing her own music came natural along with DJing. After only few months of producing she released her very first bootleg of ‘Guitar Track’ by Sander van Doorn and Firebeatz under her first alias LexapgL. Always wanting to strive for bigger and better things in her career, she will be attending SAE Institute Zürich, a music production school to improve her skills.

Today we take a look back at one of her best releases of 2018, ‘Rooftop’. This single opens up with eery synths and sounds which set a dark tone for the production. As the track continues, Aleks Craine adds low lying bass lines into the single which gives it a dancey vibe. The very well placed vocal sample which says “I wanted to write some hard shit, some blow of the rooftop shit” tells the listener to expect some harder sounds which Aleks Craine delivers in spades, as punchy kicks and deep pulsating bass lines take to the forefront. For the break down, Aleks Craine shows off her melodic style very briefly before heading back to her harder tech style.
