Vidchajj - Nobody

Brand-new EP from Vidchajj has landed in my mailbox and I am beyond stoked to share it. "Nobody" was released by Vertigo Cult, and features five screwgaze anthems that showcase Oleksandr's incredible sense of crafting melodies while staying deeply rooted in underground culture. Echos of Salem and Wiicca resonate through those tracks, yet Vidchajj carves out his own niche, especially evident when he raps and sings (!). Check "Untitled" for the latter - it is just amazing with his ethereal crooning contrasted with grainy bassline, guitar strumming and slow hi-hats. The EP features two covers: "Arachnid", written by Slutty Sonny, here transformed into an unrecognisable and but vastly improved witch house version, and "Baby Boi", a classic Salem joint that got a serious facelift from Vidchajj and pales the original. Absolutely aced. GET IT!

"Nobody" is out now on Vertigo Cult and can be downloaded here. Stream the whole project below.

The EP includes two covers: "Arachnid," with lyrics by Slutty Sonny, transformed into an unrecognizable but vastly improved witch house version, and "Baby Boi," a revitalized take on a classic unreleased Salem track that surpasses the original. Vidchajj has absolutely nailed it. Don't miss out on this one—GET IT!
