For catalogue number 19, Radikon proudly welcomes Lexer hailing from Leipzig, Germany. ‘Signs of a Swarm’ features two powerfully stripped-down originals and an anthemic remix by Italy’s 1979.

The title track ‘Signs of a Swarm’ is an energetic groover that is also deceptively minimal. A mesmerizing arpeggio sets the scene for beautifully engineered, pitch-shifting stabs to create a truly unique melodic soundscape. Lexer impressively shows that just a few well placed elements are able to create a fascinating soundscape and a true dancefloor killer.

1979’s take on ‘Signs of a Swarm’ is contemplative and beautifully uplifting. Reverb-laden strings and atmospheres infuse the original with an enthralling anthemic quality, while retaining the originals’ singular melodic feel.

‘No Line’ is a warm, dubby journey. Soothing stabs, a deep kick and mesmerizing strings envelop the listener on an auditory tour of Lexer’s musical universe. Compellingly minimal, ‘No Line’ is a subtle groover that hits a rare sweet spot between deep warmth and uplifting energy.

‘Signs of a Swarm’ showcases the power of a producer that commits to the vision of his tracks. Artfully stripped down, Lexer’s Radikon debut is as well thought out as it is musically powerful.
