Join us on Wed. April 23rd for the second edition of ALAMUSIC Presents featuring Doc Frat & HE_MENACE.
Ottawa newcomer Doc Frat is not what you would call your traditional newcomer. Having stepped into a DJ booth for the first time 14 years ago, he brings rebirth and newfound energy to his new home.
Formerly known as Krøna, Doc Frat has spent the last decade igniting dancefloors across his native Quebec, from underground venues to arenas, warehouses, and the legendary Dagobert in Quebec City. He headlined countless events and shared the stage with industry heavyweights like OMNOM, Dave Summer, DLMT (DANSYN), Ryan Shepherd, and Cheat Codes, just to name a few. Beyond the booth, his work as a promoter, tour manager and talent buyer cemented his role in shaping the scene—most notoriously as one of the three masterminds behind Montreal’s infamous Empire Thursdays, a series of wild, unrelenting parties that left a mark on the city’s nightlife.
Now in 2025, Doc Frat steps into a new chapter, rebranding his musical identity and honing his production craft. His high-tempo sound—fusing garage, techno, and urban influences—drives his electrifying, technically precise performances. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, one thing is certain: Doc Frat is here to make noise.
Alex Jimenez, known by his DJ name He-Menace, is a DJ rooted in both Colombian and Nicaraguan culture. The name “He-Menace” is a personal touch—a playful nod to the way his last name is pronounced, offering a unique connection between his identity and his art.
He-Menace’s musical journey began at the age of 17, when he was introduced to the world of raving. It was at this moment that his perspective on music was forever changed. Deep house quickly became his foundation, but his love for the genre led him to explore a wide range of sounds—from organic house to melodic techno, indie dance, and even tech house. This versatility is reflected in his sets, where he aims to take listeners on a journey through different rhythms and emotions.
In 2023, Alex decided to take his passion to the next level when he found a mixer at a local thrift store. Seeing it as a sign, he dove into DJing, and it wasn’t long before his energy and passion for music caught the attention of local venues. He became a resident DJ at Raindance Hostel in Ometepe, Nicaragua, where he spent a month building connections and sharing his sound. He also became a recurring face at Beyond City Beats and their open decks events, while playing at well-known venues like 56Underground and Alora. Along the way, Alex has performed at house parties, where he takes great joy in creating a space where people can connect, dance, and lose themselves in the music.
For He-Menace, DJing is about more than just playing songs; it’s about creating an experience. His aim is to offer others the same sense of awe and excitement he felt when he first discovered electronic music. Every set is an opportunity to build energy, sync with the crowd, and share the magic of the dancefloor. Through his music, He-Menace strives to leave a lasting impression on anyone who steps into his world.
