7-NIKONOS V / LE TRIP
(7 INCH)
DEEPMATTER / DM27
7 Inch
"For fans of Khruangbin, BADBADNOTGOOD and similar. ‘Nikonos V’ is sun-soaked, groove-heavy & pairs laid-back psych guitars with warm, analog textures. On the flip, ‘Le trip’ dives into psychedelic jazz-funk, blending boom-bap drums, woozy keys, and a wild saxophone improvisation from Kimo Eiserbeck.
Hamburg-based multi-instrumentalist and producer The Offline offers an exclusive glimpse into his forthcoming album La grande évasion with this double A-side 7"" - a tantalising taste of the cinematic, escapist soundworld to come. • An intoxicating mix of woozy, breakbeat flecked psych soul and breezy groove-laced West Coast surf with hints of BADBADNOTGOOD, Khruangbin & Tommy Guerrero.
• Strong tastemaker support from Gilles Peterson, Huey Morgan, Deb Grant, Jamie Cullum, COLORS, HHV (and HHV Magazine), Rough Trade, Somewhere Soul and more
• Follows a string of successful releases including his viral 2023 debut album ‘La couleur de la mer’ which went on to sell over 3000 copies globally. "[info sheet from distr.]
