Jordon Alexander (born 1994), known professionally as Mall Grab, is an Australian DJ and producer of house and techno music.

Alexander was born in 1994 in Newcastle, Australia, later settling in London in 2016.[citation needed]

Musical career

[edit]

Alexander's stage name is derived from a slang expression for when someone holds a skateboard incorrectly, i.e. a "mall grab".[1] From an early age, he was fascinated by his parents' records, which featured mostly rock and roll. Over time, he became fascinated by electronic music, which eventually defined his musical work. He has a regular show on Rinse FM radio, where he invites guests from the industry and creates mixes.[2]

In 2020, Alexander released the EP Share a View with the hardcore punk band Turnstile, where he remixed three of the group's songs.[3]

He released his debut album What I Breathe on 5 August 2022.[4][5][6]

In 2024, Alexander was included in the Coachella lineup.[7][8]
