Biography

Alexandra Prince was born in Hamburg, Germany. Her father is German and her mother is Brazilian.

Her early career started in Germany with the Booya Family, for which she sang many top hits and also Nana’s Number 1 Hit "Lonely".[1] Her first solo single "How we livin" was a top 30 hit and stayed in the German Charts for a full 16 weeks.

Since the song "So many Times" by Gadjo feat. Alexandra Prince became a massive international club hit in 2005, Alexandra earned a place as an established, well-respected house diva. The song which she not only sung but also wrote, reached Number 1 in the Worldwide Dance Charts, and number 22 in the official UK Single Charts.

Currently, Alexandra is working together with major house music producers from around the world in the making of her debut album. She has so far being recording with producers such as Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, Syke‘n'Sugarstarr and Till West & DJ Delicious. On top of this she has written songs for Oliver Moldan, DJ Moguai and the label Deep Dish.

According to the Eurodance Encyclopaedia she is rumored to have been the lead singer of Sqeezer, with frontwoman Lori Stern miming onstage and in video clips to Prince's vocals.[2] It is debated that she may also have been the true singing voice behind Fernanda Brandao from Hot Banditoz and the '90s German teen pop star Blümchen, where Prince took over the high pitched vocals, while Jasmin Wagner took over the spoken/yelled parts.[3][4]

gollark: The reason they *do* is probably just consistency with other methods (it would be very annoying if they worked very differently to GET routing-wise) and so requests can be routed to the right handler more easily.
gollark: <@498244879894315027> Why wouldn't (shouldn't?) they have a URL?
gollark: They do have to spin pretty fast. There are sealed helium ones now.
gollark: > The HDD's spindle system relies on air density inside the disk enclosure to support the heads at their proper flying height while the disk rotates. HDDs require a certain range of air densities to operate properly. The connection to the external environment and density occurs through a small hole in the enclosure (about 0.5 mm in breadth), usually with a filter on the inside (the breather filter).[124] If the air density is too low, then there is not enough lift for the flying head, so the head gets too close to the disk, and there is a risk of head crashes and data loss. Specially manufactured sealed and pressurized disks are needed for reliable high-altitude operation, above about 3,000 m (9,800 ft).[125] Modern disks include temperature sensors and adjust their operation to the operating environment. Breather holes can be seen on all disk drives – they usually have a sticker next to them, warning the user not to cover the holes. The air inside the operating drive is constantly moving too, being swept in motion by friction with the spinning platters. This air passes through an internal recirculation (or "recirc") filter to remove any leftover contaminants from manufacture, any particles or chemicals that may have somehow entered the enclosure, and any particles or outgassing generated internally in normal operation. Very high humidity present for extended periods of time can corrode the heads and platters. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Integrity
gollark: Interweb says it's to keep pressure equalized between the inside and out.
