Alexander Perls Rousmaniere (born May 11, 1976) is an American musician and record producer. His notable projects include 009 Sound System and Aalborg Soundtracks, whose songs are entirely written, performed, and produced by Perls.
Perls' songs are known for their mix of electronic, trance, and controversial anti-religiously themed lyrics that promote hedonism.
Born in Boston, Massachusetts, while studying as a new student at University College London in 1997, Perls worked with the post-rock collective Piano Magic. Following Perls' graduation from Oberlin College in 1998, he worked briefly for the Barbara Gladstone Gallery, a leading contemporary art dealership in New York, and then settled into a career as songwriter.
Between 2000 and 2008, Perls primarily composed music for European dance music, including David Guetta, Paul van Dyk, Ian Carey, ATB, and Robert M. first in New York City, and after 2006, in Los Angeles. From 2000 to 2003 he was one of the members of the electronic music duo CIRC, which released one album, Love Electric, and several singles and remixes.
Between 2002 and 2004, Perls' music publishing catalog was represented by Bug Music. Between 2004 and 2011, Perls' music publishing catalog was represented outside the United States by the Independent Music Group. Since 2011, Perl's catalog has been represented outside the United States by Kobalt Music.
In 2011, Track One Recordings opened a remix competition for Perls' productions "Dreamscape" and "Born to Be Wasted".
Several of Perls' songs under the artist names "009 Sound System" and "Aalborg Soundtracks" have been included as free soundtracks with Ezvid, a freeware video maker for Windows.
Perls' song "Wings" was created to be the theme song for The Wings Flying Hoodie, a sweatshirt with a built in inflatable travel pillow and eyemask.
