Ale Galata
My name is Ale Galata and I am a passionate singer and songwriter from Regensburg (Bavaria). Accompanied by music since my childhood, I write down my feelings, emotions, opinions and stories in my songs. From around the age of ten, I kept picking up my brother's guitar and strumming on it. I wrote my very first song with 12 or 13 years. And from then on I was addicted to music. Till today I’ve written so many songs and played in many positions in different bands. I have performed on many stages and I have gained a lot of experience.
Today I am 28 years old and I want to bring my music to the people. My music ranges from powerful pop to melodic ballads, characterized with energetic lyrics, that express feelings and tell stories. I released my debut single -Father- in March 2020. The second song -Not Enough- was released at the end of 2020 and my third single -Hands Up- in July 2021.
Through hard work, ambition and the constant urge to get better, I can already show some successes. I am constantly trying to educate myself, in all respects the music industry demand; including marketing, social media, etc.
As a result, I have already been able to build a loyal fan base. My goal is to reach people with my music. I want them to laugh, cry, dance, think or just not think at all, but also let go. And above all, I want to use my full potential. I can achieve all of this with my music.
Wake up
Die Inspiration zu "Wake up" basiert auf dem Thema des Träumens. Aus einem Albtraum zu erwachen werden die meisten als Erleichterung ansehen, was passiert jedoch wenn die "Traumwelt" um vieles schöner ist als die Realität, sprich die Wirklichkeit zum Schreckgespenst wird. Ein Gedankenspiel, welches das Leben an und für sich betrachtet. Wo befinden wir uns? Wo wollen wir hin? Stellen wir uns den Problemen oder flüchten wir?
Die Thematik des Songs exzellent, die musikalische Umsetzung im Genre des Electro Pop zu finden, sehr “commercial“ und “radiofriently“ produziert, würde ich meinen.
Äußerst interessant die Kombination der Lyrics, welche das eigentlich schwierige Thema leicht zugänglich macht, mit dem Genre des Electro-Pop zu versehen. Electro in den Tiefen des Lebens und der Psyche anzusiedeln darf man getrost als kleinen Geniestreich bezeichnen.
…and at the end we have to say, "Wake up" by Ale Galata, definitely much more than just a simple Pop song.
Q&A
Who inspired you to make music in general
My parents bought me a drumset when I was 2 years old. They always supported me and my music. I grew up with music and I think my parents inspired me.
What is your creative process like ...and what inspired you to the song "Wake up"?
The most interesting thing about my creative process is that I dream about the melodies of my songs. I can hear it as if the song is already finished. Then I wake up and make a whole song out of it.
That’s because I’m very fascinated of the dreamworld and I wanted to make a song about dreams. And that's how I came up with the idea for the song wake up.

I would say ambition, if that’s a talent :D. My ambition allows me to achieve lots of goals in my life
