Stream: Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team - "Strange Touch (My House) (Nikko remix)"
This installment, you can see an 802s Volvo being put to the test, thanks to Drunk Mums (Nice job lads). Following along with the 802s theme Velciraptor released their clip to 'Cynthia' which rivals some of the most old school clips that Rage would play at around 2am in the morning. Also in the mix is a banging clip from The Ruminater, the last 30 seconds or so is vision of their parents rocking out, surprisingly they seem rather unembarrassed. Nikko is the last clip in this bundle, slowing down the pace [...]
Vanity Jukebox Vol. 15 NIHILIST HAU5 Mixed by NIKKO

SPEAK! dropped this new track through his tumblr account last Friday. Titled "Televangelism", the track features Nikko Gray and was produced by Michael Uzowuru (aka Uzi) and Jay Cue. It's a dope new track from speak!, can't wait till "Inside-out Boy" drops. For all of you that don't know, he got Syd from Odd Future to produce all of "Inside-out Boy" so it should be full of dope beats and the original flow of speak!. Check the latest track below and be on the look out for "Inside-out Boy" coming very soon... Televanelism- SPEAK! ft. Nikko [...]
Earlier this year, producer AFTA-1 quietly released a swoon-worthy EP with songstress Nikko Gray . They actually dropped it on Valentine's Day, a fitting date given the love-centric rhythms and vocals heard on its four tracks. And as we wait for a follow-up project, the West Coast producer has shared this superb live footage of him performing "H(eye)Land" with some help from Gray. She might not appear in the video, but her sensual vocals are coursing through the veins of this track. [ via ] Hit the skip to watch the performance.

CMJ has never really made sense to me. A bunch of bands, acts and DJs performing a week long festival in NYC. It is hardly the place to host a festival. Isn't there always lots of acts all year around at very close venues? Where CMJ can succeed is by showcasing more than up and coming acts, but perhaps a new idea. Thus, BPM 2011 is born. This event is about show casing new and innovative minds that are pioneering a unique pulse, that is the backbone of genres already formed. The pride in this group is the fact that [...]

ok. Nikko are from Brisbane and do some pretty interesting guitar-based heavy bluesy stuff...throw in a bit of shoegaze as well. The guys have just released a double A-side 73 (You can stream both tracks below and purchase the thing here). The first track we've got below starts off a little slow and you kinda [...]
Summer is winding down, but it's not over yet! DefSound sent this track to me with the line, "Won't you let this become the soundtrack to your days?" What a perfect segue into this lovely melody with West Coast singer Nikko Gray. If you guys listen to my Rendezvous compilations, you've heard plenty from her before. She sounds like an angel. And Def Sound kills it on the production as always. I think they make an excellent pair. We will keep you posted for more music from them. For [...]
[via my headstash]Big summer, big tracks.What else can really be said? It's the season for convertibles, block parties, and beaters. So turn up the bass, take it off, and tune in.// annger dimas - like this (obeyah edit) [zippyshare]Straightforward bass grooves, from an artist who, possibly more than anybody, deserves the moombahton treatment. Angger Dimas is all about aggressive dutch horns,

Here is something a little different from the usual that I thought was kind of interesting. Def Sound & Nikko Gray come together as the duo Only Children. They release their first single, "Everything.Goes.OUR.Way," from their upcoming project, Love.Shaped.Love.Sounds. Everything.Goes.OUR.Way by Only Children.
AFTA - 1 and Nikko Gray have a truly magical musical partnership. They just released this EP which exemplifies their stylized soul. In my humble opinion, AFTA-1 is making some of the best beats in years. He manages to make his tracks sound like they're from the year 4000, but never in a sterile or robotic way. He's just apparently inhabiting another soulful cosmic dimension simultaneously. Paired with Nikko Gray's unique vocals, this is pretty much what sounds like. Listen and purchase below. This is how AFTA-1 announced the project on his site : [...]
Three local artists and friends of the program here, John "Johnsville" Dessereau, Trice and Antoine aka "Mr Day Job" all collaborated for this pretty great idea to pool talents and promise and we couldn't be happier for the three of them. They had a launch party last night at Williamsburg event space/gallery Rouge 58 and [...]
Bronx-born and raised, twenty years old, a student at Hunter College, a producer/DJ with a pedigree that we can get behind (his brother is elder statesmen of NYC nightlife and music and art and all-around nice guy Johnsville), Nikko is an up-and-coming artist who's catching heat from the likes of Palms Out Sounds and, more, he's also really quite good at making danceable cuts that much more danceable, for still being in school and not legally even allowed in most of the music establishments in and around Gotham City. We wanted to feature Nikko's music before he became more well-known [...]

The energy from a fresh mind can sometimes change the way one thinks, feels, and in this case- hear. Palms Out and friends are happy to endorse the fresh mind of Nikko. A 20 year old Bronx born protege who grew up on Remix Sundays. Nikko incorporates his uptown heritage in his music, referencing New Yorican Soul, Freestyle, Disco, Rave and Hip Hop. As president of the radio station at Hunter College, Nikko's music is reaching a wide local audience and causing a stir in the city. Nikko is seriously packing out parties at his college and looking to strengthen [...]
