Alexander Marcus
The Berlin character behind "Papaya" and the "Hawaii Toast Song", splicing schlager onto club beats in a style he calls Electrolore, with deliberately absurd videos to match.

About Alexander Marcus
Alexander Marcus is a schlager artist from Berlin, Germany.
Alexander Marcus is a stage persona created by the Berlin musician Felix Rennefeld, who appears in character with a deep tan, slicked hair and the bright outfits of a schlager crooner. The songs keep the sing-along melodies and sentimental themes of German schlager and set them over house and electro beats, so they work equally well as party hits and as parody.
He named the style Electrolore and used the term as the title of his debut album. The character gained wide attention online through his videos, which lean into kitsch and deliberate bad taste, and he later took the persona to the cinema in the feature film "Glanz & Gloria".
