How did you start making music, and what were your early inspirations?

I played drums from a young age and started deejaying as a teenager. To introduce my own taste of music into my mixes, I started to do mash-ups and bootlegs followed by my own productions.

Could you describe your sound, and what makes it unique?

The faster bpm is where my heart lies of course - strong, intensive beats and big melodies. But I'm not a prisoner of styles. I always love to add a fresh new taste to my tracks.

How did you get started in the business, and what was your first landmark moment?

I already had some releases under different aliases before starting as Chris SX. But then it went off. My first release was already the 5 years anniversary “Hymn” for the German club event Trance.Mission which brought me in the Beatport charts. But the next track "Sands Beach" topped everything. All Major Deejays played the track including Armin in A State of Trance, which was totally unexpected and made me a little bit proud.

Which do you prefer, producing in the studio or DJ’ing?

Hard question because I love both. Why not say produce live on stage. Would love to do some live stuff like Giuseppe Ottaviani or Activa and John Askew doing it right now. Overall it would be cool to get more on stage time again. The Trance Scene here in Germany and the neighboring countries degreases year by year resulting in less gigs.

What’s next for Chris SX?

I have another tune with Spectral in progress and several tracks and remixes which are planed to get released in the second half of 2020. So there is a lot coming.
