Lexer - Topic

Lexer grew up in the East German town of Leipzig. From a young age, he would spend his weekends travelling to nightclubs, absorbing his friend’s DJ sets and sending them his favourite tracks to play out – until he decided to keep those tracks for himself. He soon became known for his mesmeric house sets and turned his hand to producing at age 18. His first track “My Princess” cemented his name as a true melodic house talent.

Lexer’s sound soon evolved from melodic to deep house, with his 2015 album Nowhere Else on Kontor Records capturing the hearts and souls of dance music fans around the world.

2019 track “Felina” whipped the world into a Lexer-frenzy and marked a transitional moment for the artist – a move from house to dynamic techno. His productions became harder, faster, and big-room-ready.

This Never Happened became a home for Lexer after dance music legend and label owner Lane 8 reached out to him as a fan of his music. With Lane 8 being an early inspiration to Lexer’s own music and keen to release on TNH, double-single ‘Gemini Bridges / Room 4242’ was released toward the end of 2020. Gemini Bridges remained in Spotify editorial playlist ‘Night Rider’ for well over a year.

Lexer’s upcoming 2022 album ‘The First Last Day’ released on October 28th on This Never Happened will unveil his new sound to the world. The evidence of this dance-floor-ready sound is already shown in his DJ sets, which will include 60+ shows before the year is out.
