NICOLAS JAAR Remixes DJ T - Gorilla Hug
Get Physical Music 129 :: Release Date: 16.06.10

The sometimes Chilean, sometimes New Yorker, Nicolas Jaar delivers an exceptional remix. A Funk excursion that drags the original into a time machine and transports it back to the 70s into the studio of Parliament-Funkadelic. The only thing that is missing here is Bootsy Collins’ star shaped glasses and a spaceship taking off in the background.

Some artists don't like to conform. Instead they can only lead. Nicolas Jaar is one such artist, his recent Wolf + Lamb package is a prime example of his supreme talent and ability to make music for well beyond the dancefloor. Resident Advisor's recent feature on the 19 year old New York based producer had Philip Sherburne hail him as "an artist younger than techno itself, and yet one with an unconventional and rather uncanny interpretation of its principles."

INTERVIEW :: Breaking Through - Nicolas Jaar
Resident Advisor :: Publishing Date: 12.10.09

He may be younger than techno itself, but Nicolas Jaar\'s unconventional take on the genre is turning heads. RA\'s Philip Sherburne talks to the Wolf + Lamb affiliated producer.
"At first, I don\'t think I saw music as something you learn," says Jaar by phone from Providence, Rhode Island, where he is currently studying at Brown University. "When I was really young, whenever there was a piano around, I\'d start improvising. But nothing formal—I was just really into the idea of a piano being able to make sounds." That might sound tautological—if you\'re not into the idea of a piano making sounds, there\'s not much need to get near one. But Jaar\'s music suggests what may have tickled his ear upon those early encounters with the ivories.

NICOLAS JAAR :: Snuggle & Slap CompilationCircus Company (2xCD) Incl. Your waltz / Love teacher :: Release Date: 19.10.09

RELEASE INFORMATION CIRCUS COMPANY:Celebrating 10 years of refining its highly personal vision of underground electronic dance music, Paris\' Circus Company presents Snuggle & Slap, a two-CD compilation balancing contemporary house music with more idiosyncratic submissions. It\'s more than just a label sampler: many of the artists included here appear two or even three times, having been afforded the opportunity to think beyond the dancefloor and experiment with new sounds, unusual styles, and secret passions.
Hushed funk, feathery beats and spongy textures characterize Snuggle, while Slap snaps to attention with more insistent grooves straight to the heart of the label\'s sweet spot: sumptuously detailed, swoonworthily deep house.
