Because of Art

Because of Art unveils his debut self-titled album dropping November 13th on Anjunadeep.

Because of Art’s self-titled debut album is the story of a life lived truly immersed in music. Before he was the artist on stage, Alex Grover was the person in the crowd - collecting records at Phonica and Rough Trade, discovering UK club culture as a teenager at Ministry of Sound and fabric, and following the sounds, scenes and artists that defined each era of his journey. Those formative years laid the foundations for a career that has taken Alex from local DJ to global touring artist, while moving through many different corners of electronic music as both a fan and creator.

Spanning house, garage, breakbeat, drum & bass, ambient and beyond, the album brings together the influences, dancefloors and memories that have shaped the way Alex hears and creates. From the sounds that first inspired him to the ideas captured in the notebooks that accompany his creative process, ‘Because of Art’ is Alex Grover taking stock of 25 years spent inside electronic music and club culture; a record where every chapter of his story finds its place.
