Crossover by NIKKNAME
NIKKNAME's focus when making music is to reflect the emotions he feels in response to his environment. He works across deep house, melancholic ambient and moody disco on labels like this one and Freeride Millenium and always evolves with each new outing. Now living in Vienna, he is a core part of the scene with his 80000 Radio show on Res Radio Vienna and has also been involved with some acclaimed art exhibitions in the city.
His return to Live At Robert Johnson kicks off with 'Wind & Fairies,' a moody five-minute synth suspense with sustained, foggy chords pierced only by twinkling arps and cautious strings that speak of heading off on an adventure into the unknown. The brilliant 'Rot' then layers up rugged and rumbling bass with bleeping synth sequences that make for a late-night trip through a deserted landscape. Last of all is the most direct and punchy cut 'Crossover'. It's a synth-laced disco and house fusion with crashing hits and smeared pads all journeying next to a searching cosmic lead.
