Nicolas Jaar 's collaborative 12" for Record Store Day sold insanely fast, and rightfully so. The release saw Jaar collaborating with Grizzly Bear and Brian Eno. But it's when you listen to Jaar's remix of Grizzly Bear 's "Sleeping Ute" that you fully understand. The remix is intricate, subtle in its execution and simply memserizing. As always, Jaar delivers.

I slipped up and didn't make it out to my local spot on Record Store Day, my loss considering all the fantastic stuff that landed on shelves Saturday. One of those was an absolutely stacked 123 between Grizzly Bear, Nicolas Jaar , and Brian Eno . Luckily for those that didn't snag a copy we can now stream Nicolas Jaar's remix of Grizzly Bear's "Sleeping Ute". It's enjoyable for all the reason's we've come to expect from Jaar, and at this point we're left wondering if a follow up from 20112s Space Is Only Noise is in the [...]

Over the weekend, Nicolas Jaar released a collaborate 123 for Record Store Day that includes remixes of Grizzly Bear‘s “Sleeping Ute” and Brian Eno 's "Lux." While the album sold out, a stream of the Grizzly Bear remix made it's way online. Jaar extends "Sleeping Ute" into one of his elegantly hypnotic slow-building songs that is "guaranteed to move refined dancefloors everywhere."

On paper, the idea of remixing a Grizzly Bear track sounds like a such a bad idea. But then when you learn that the guy doing the remix is Nicolas Jaar , it's a pretty set thing that whatever you're about to hear is probably going to be pretty fantastic. And no matter how big a Grizzly Bear fan you are, I promise you that this remix of Sleeping Ute is worth a listen. Stream below:

Se está poniendo muy de moda esto de sacar discos con remix de otros artistas a tu propio álbum. Si Azari & III, Nicolas Jaar y Disclosure(entre otros) están en el ajo, bienvenidos sean! (via)
A while back Nicolas Jaar decided to push the idea of what physical ownership of music was by releasing a Clown and Sunset compilation in the form of a cube . All the music was self contained, charged through a USB, and had two headphone jacks on either side to promote shared listening. It was an interesting concept, but made more waves for the medium of the release than the actual music. Now we all get a chance to listen together through the giant communal listening cube that is the internet. The whole compilation is available to stream and [...]
After releasing an album as profound as The Space Is Only Noise it would be difficult for some people to move forward immediately. This isn't the case for Nicolas Jaar. He's continued to churn out incredible remix after incredible track after incredible mix over the past year with no apparent intentions on stopping. Next in the string of quality is the track "Play The Drums For Me". It's burning house number that constantly bubbles below the surface without reaching any disorienting highs in typical Nico Jaar restrained and calculated fashion. The track is available as part of a larger complation [...]
Nicolas Jaar : Play The Drums For Me - Stream
On record, Nicolas Jaar, to put it frankly, strikes me as one of the most interesting figures in electronic music to emerge throughout the past few years. His blend of elements of spacious house music, vivid sample collages, and sultry atmosphere, topped off with his own baritone vocals, hit home with both the Space is Only Noise LP and the Don't Break My Love EP in 2011, and despite being relatively quiet throughout this year, he has continued his winning streak with the excellent " With Just One [...]
Taking to the Spanish soundwaves, Nicolas Jaar recently mixed up a killer hour-long set as part of Sonar Lab, Barcelona. It would be tough for me to identify some of the music in this mix-a testament to Jaar's otherworldly tastes and influences. The transitions are also quite magnificent in this performance, showcasing the artist's ability to string along a rather seamless set. I have yet to catch this guy live, but this gives me one hell of a reason to buy a ticket the next time around. Stream the performance below.

The voice of Chan Marshall will accompany me before I lay my head to sleep tonight. One of the most eagerly anticipated albums of the year comes from Matador's Cat Power.

In June Cat Power posted up a brand new track titled " Cherokee ". The result saw the internet go crazy for Chan Marshall's return, and rightly so. Today though she's posted up a new version of the track along with a remix of it from Nicolas Jaar . Check out both the rework and the new version below and look out for Cat Power's new album, Sun , which drops on the 4th of September via Matador .

The precocious French producer Nicolas Jaar gets a hold of one of the two pre-released tracks from Cat Power 's upcoming album Sun . The songstress' " Cherokee " is all at once a musical layer cake, with a gramophone sounding lead voice in the forefront, bolstered by an aerial chorus and a zesty treat with punchy drums and and enthralling rhythm. Jaar fades out all these instrumental and background elements, slowing down the sound to a slow motion speed and flushing out the ethereal vocals making for a [...]
We have a double dose of Cat Power this morning and it comes by way of the release of her rad new single, "Cherokee". The original version, which appears on her new Sun album, has a '90s-influenced sound to it, what with its driving beat and overall smoky air. But the remix? It's all haunted churches and dust bunny-filled mansions thanks to Nicolas Jaar , who knows a thing or two about murdering remixes . Sigh. Listen/download both tracks below.
After Nicolas Jaar collaborated with Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's daughter Scout Larue on "With Just One Glance", I had no idea the young producer would continue to work with Hollywood's female offspring. Today, much to our surprise, he is now collaborating with Sasha Spielberg. You guessed it, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw's daughter. The track is called "Just Friends", a reimagining of Leonard Cohen's original work, "Avalanche". With a haunting, minimalist touch, this is the perfect song for this rainy day we are having here on the east coast. "Just Friends" will land on The Prism [...]
Here’s a list of weird / awesome things electro prodigy Nicolas Jaar has done recently – release an aluminum cube of music called The Prism (it features songs by Jaar and friends and, based on Jaar’s label’s website, acts like a mini MP3 player, just one you can’t put any new music on or rip any music off), collaborate with Steven Spielberg’s daughter Sasha to record a prism-exclusive cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Avalanche” as Just Friends, and make a really excellent BBC 1 Essential Mix [...]
Next up to bat for BBC Radio's Essential Mix series, Nicolas Jaar. Spinning a plethora of gnarly tracks, Jaar jumped in to everything from Marvin Gaye to Jay-Z. No wonder why this dude's music is so soulful. Head over to BBC to listen to this fantastic two hour set.
