Now Is The Time

The brothers Hagen are back. Ron Hagen & Al Exander had the honour of opening disc 2 of Armin van Buuren’s ‘A State of Trance 2011′ compilation. After months of waiting, now is the time for the full release on Armind Recordings. Here’s ‘Now Is The Time’. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. For more than 15 years, Dutchman Ron Hagen has been breathing music as one half of the legendary Signum duo. He’s seen it all, from artist album to compilation and thick remixes to strong solo productions. But the spark of music also lit a fire into the heart of his little brother, Vincent Alexander Hagen. With the perfect tutor right next to him, Al Exander developed a sound of his own. It wouldn’t take long before the first collaboration was a fact. After last year’s success of ‘Last Minute’, they kick in even harder. The clocks stop ticking and all else fades to the background, as ‘Now Is The Time’ hits in. It starts off gentle, building with a deep bass. But soon enough, you’ll be taken by a dark, majestic melody, an mysterious drive and a real outburst of energy after the break. On the remix, you’ll find a tougher, even stronger version of this beat-beauty. It’s got all the necessities to make a club explode.
