Newtype Rhythms returns from a brief hiatus with an expansive rhythmic journey of Atlanta’s very own Nikki Nair.
After releasing for labels such as Banoffee Pies, Gobstopper, Scuffed and Pretty Weird, the burgeoning producer makes a welcome return to the iconic Dirtybird imprint – this time providing an eclectic four-tracker entitled ‘More Is Different’ – that expands his auditory scope from the worlds of dubstep, grime, hip-hop and even the wondrous left-turn that is the wonky genre.
Nair’s impenetrable sonic focus is only matched by his diligent mixing and selecting; and with his contribution to Newtype Rhythms he hones in on those skills by providing a near-two-hour mix of tracks that expeditiously delight the body, mind and soul that’s pegged towards the dancefloor. Check out the mix at 40 minutes in, with resident Sheepshead warming things up per usual.
