Philosophy & APERION
Where does the name APERION come from?
From the very beginning the approach to the music was in very wide variety of interests, so the name of the band reflects something big and magnificent.
And what could be wider than APEirON – fundamental, undestroiable substance, which is unidentified and endless. The substance from which the universe, Earth and us - people were developed.
The theory is summarized from antique philosopher Anaximander from Milet. He had such thoughts about 2600 years ago.
Due to the fact that the band APEirON already exists (one in Slovenia and the other one in Ireland) we didn't want to move away from the closest meaning of Apeiron, so we just changed the middle two letters in the word.
Biography of the band
The band APERION was given birth on 1st November 2002 on the foundations of the former band XANTHOCHROID from Žalec. Only the guitar player and flutist remained in Aperion. At this turning point the music genre changed from grunge with classical instruments (violin and flute) to rock with the same classical parts. Now in the band were next instruments … guitar, bass, violin, flute, drums and woman vocal. With this came the first concerts, some as pregroup for "bigger" slovenian music names as also some club concerts. Our music is described as rock foundation with ornaments of all musical styles.
After two years due to different problems and disagreements the band changed. In two months the seating of the band was totally different. Only the guitarist an bassist remained of the "old" band. In the year 2004 also the instruments changed … now the violin was replaced by viola, the cello is added, and also the flutist, drumer and singer changed.
From then on our music is developing in new dimensions, dimensions, which lead us to unknown world. World of music and us – APERION.
Here we are to present our work and we hope that you will be enjoying our music as we do.
Thank you
