NickNack - Life In The Speaker

I first heard this on Ernest Gonzales' amazing Texas Compilation (which you can download for free)

For me this is one of the standout tracks on a phenomenally diverse mixtape. It's dreamy and propulsive all at once, and (for once) I actually like the old-school wicky-wick scratches.

NickNack explains his good intentions in this interview, and also talks about the crossover between jazz and hip-hop. He's a melody-driven producer, so if you like your electro to sound like robots singing gospel, this is the stuff.

You can hear more NickNack on his Myspace and his Soundcloud, and you should definitely also get that mixtape. It's free - what harm can it do?
