Hello lovers, New York It boy Max Steele was in Berlin for a juggernaut of cultural appearances this week which included night club shows, zine readings, breakfast with art star Vaginal Davis, and photo shoots with a slew of Berlin photographers. Luckily I managed to grab a few drunken moments with him, between engagements, in my very own kitchen, for this exclusive chit-chat. Max has performed everywhere from the rarefied plateau of the New Museum to the infamous Chantal's House of Shame, via countless basement bars and galleries, garnering press from Interview magazine and the New York Times along the way. You can keep up to date with all of his endeavors on his wonderful blog: fagcity.blogspot.com

Hello lovers,
The incredible Light Asylum were in town this week, and I simply had to grab them for a chat after seeing their show at Südblock which was packed to capacity with every face on the scene. In case you don't know Light Asylum, let me share them with you because quite simply they are going to be huge. They are a Brooklyn based duo making dark, innovative, spellbinding electronic music that is winning them fans worldwide, including Coco Rosie whom they have toured with, and M.E.N who they will support tonight at Bush Hall - June 7th. I hope you enjoy the interview, if you do, seek out the band online at www.lightasylum.com

Hello Lovers,
I've been all over the continent in the past few weeks, traversing Europe, "inch by inch, step by step, mile by mile, man by man" as Liza once sang. On my travels I met Joel Gibb, the frontman of the ever more popular Canadian ensemble The Hidden Cameras. Mr Gibb was kind enough to spare five minutes for this exclusive little chit-chat, witness the charisma! Alexander x

Hello Lovers,
This week I took sometime out from recording to visit one of my favourite new artists, Stevie Hanley, and talk to him about the group show he has curated in Berlin to celebrate his 28th birthday. The show is mixed media and is being held in Berlin's only trans owned and operated gallery, Studio St. St. on Sanderstrasse in NeüKoln. In addition to the art on the walls, the gallery itself is building a reputation for itself as a kooky enclave in a very hip part of the city and it's especially worth a visit on weekends when the showgirl owners put on a cabaret show in very, ahem, unique style.
