Alex Niggemann – Materium – Poker Flat Recordings welcomes back the ever-prolific Alex Niggemann for another speaker-troubling dispatch. This time out, the Aoen and Soulfooled boss drops a heavy-duty release that more than lives up to his usual high standards.
‘Materium’ is epic in every sense of the word- a sprawling, tough journey into analog techno – with a dash of house thrown in. It rips through the speakers – the crisp and aggressive production provides the space for growling synths and atmospheric, tense pads. What’s more, the whole track audaciously dissolves into silence mid way through – before exploding back into life via a descending analog synth line.
‘Primary’ is no less dramatic, but opts for a dubbier vibe as it builds and releases the ever-present tension. It’s hard, moody, electronic funk for after-hours basements and warehouses.
Digital customers will also be able to pick up ‘Bee’ – which leans more to the house side of the fence with a playful, highly infectious groove and enough propulsion to move even the most tired of dance-floors.
