Alex Niggemann’s AEON label turns 5

Alex Niggemann had a vision to “launch a label that mirrors diversity”

Alex Niggemann needs little to no introduction. He’s classically trained pianist and it was his brother’s vinyl collection that created his thirst for electronic music. Niggemann formed his AEON imprint back in 2013 as a place to release quality and timeless house and techno music.

Now, in 2018, his absorbing AEON imprint celebrates five years in the business. To mark this pivotal moment, he invites a succession of celebrated AEON family members to contribute to this impressive ten-track release.

The expected release date is December 7, 2019. So stay tuned. As a sneak preview we give you one of the tracks: Alex Niggemann’s “Orion”. Heady bass and glitchy beats are laced with a small, harmonic synth section. Enjoy.

AEON 5 Years Compilation

The album begins with TVA’s MH17. An ambient and melodic wonder that floats you into a dream-like state. Kincaid featuring Sinal provide a darker beat on “Gibberish”. Creeping synths are complemented by a psychedelic guitar sample, whilst “Trails Of Snails” from Uriah Klapter creates a twisted and drone-like atmosphere. Omri Smadar takes the reigns next with his tribal drum-infused “Drum Odyssey” which leads into the bouncing kick of Speaking Minds & Amarcord’s D”ancing Under Bright Lights”, taking you on a journey deep into space.

Label head Alex Niggemann continues the cosmic journey with “Orion”, a heady bass and glitchy beats are laced with a small, harmonic synth section. This flows perfectly into the synth-led, broken-beat vibe of Third Son’s “Hypernormalisation”. The next offering comes from LPZ who continues with the broken-beat theme adding a crescendo of clashing cymbals on “In My Mind”. Echonomist delivers the penultimate track in the shape of “Loosing Less” a driving number with a racing and pulsating heartbeat. Radeckt closes the album on a high with “Raven”, a carefully crafted, playful slice of techno.
