The man behind URSULA 1000 is none other than the mild mannered, multi-instrumentalist Alex Gimeno. Based in New York City, Alex’s style evolved and transitioned from the sophisticated & hip background score provided by his father, a renowned member of the 50’s Latin orchestra, Los Chavales De Espana, to the heady rock, punk, disco, funk and electronic dance music of his generation. Alex smoothly moves back and forth between musical styles from the glamorous Jet Set era to frenetic electronica. Alex cannot be boxed in, categorized or labeled, his music is a multi-leveled eclectic blend of styles and genres. Finding a label to house this eclecticism could be tricky. Lo and behold came the smart and highly respected Eighteenth Street Lounge Music label, operated by Washington DCs Thievery Corporation.
Keeping up with the jetsetting image, you can catch URSULA 1000 dj-ing his transcontinental grooves at discothèques worldwide like the prestigious Fabric in London to 30,000 screaming people at Australia’s Good Vibrations Festival. He’s also done shows for fashionistas like Prada, Issey Miyake, Hugo Boss, Miss Sixty, Fiorucci, H&M, Diesel and Christian Dior. When in New York you can also catch him at his weekend residency at the swank APT.
Alex has also been very busy on the remix front adding his magic to tracks by Felix da Housecat, Quincy Jones, The Faint, Fort Knox Five, Nicola Conte and Pierre Henry to name a few, as well as being asked to remix the theme songs of The Incredibles, The Powerpuff Girls and Sesame Street. He has also supplied music to a number of hit shows like Entourage, Sex and the City and Grey’s Anatomy.
Currently locked up in his mad laboratory, Alex is conjuring up the next Ursula 1000 adventure. Expect some magic...soon!
