Alex Hertel | Lexano

Alex Hertel, now also known under his alias Lexano, is a versatile DJ from Germany whose journey spans from melodic soundscapes to the raw intensity of underground techno. Starting out as Alex Hertel, he made a name for himself in the vibrant electronic scene around Mannheim, delivering hypnotic, driving, and melodic sets that captivated dancefloors in some of the region’s most iconic clubs and festivals.

Today, Alex continues to perform under both monikers. While Alex Hertel remains true to his roots in Melodic Techno and Melodic House, Lexano dives deep into the realms of Hardgroove, Hardtechno, and Hardtrance — bringing relentless energy and a darker, more intense vibe to his performances.

He’s a resident DJ at renowned event series such as Stromverschwendung, Format, and Release², and has played at respected venues and festivals.

One of his standout moments was the release of his remix of Hans Zimmer’s Time, which gained him widespread attention and significantly expanded his reach.

With original productions set to be released soon, Alex Hertel / Lexano is continuing to evolve, pushing boundaries and shaping the future of his unique sound — one powerful set at a time.
