New York-centric LP of ambient jungle, d'n'b bangers and jazzy breakbeats from Nigel dropped a few days ago on British label Astral Black. Beautiful stuff with some organic drums, smooth melodies and mellow grooves. Highly recommended stuff.
The vinyl is limited to 100 copies and can be bought here. Stream below.
Five months after the fantastic "The Rubirosa Paradox", NIGELTHREETIMES returns with a new record "The Kid And The Iron Horse", dedicated (or inspired by) two night clubs from Queens. Taking a step back from his jungle and d'n'b comfort zone (at least that's what he made me believe), Nigel ventures into deep house, techno and other rave-friendly styles, and makes himself unapologetically at home while doing it. Great stuff.

My fav NY-based junglist and MC NIGELTHREETIMES is back with a 10-track long album "The Rubirosa Paradox". It's been exactly a year since his last LP, so I'm pleased to report that the man has not only managed to deliver a quality follow-up material but also spiced up his style a bit, incorporating sneaky jazzy ("Man A Get Digital"), cloud-rap ("Wailer's Canyon") and ambient IDM ("73% Fog Juice") influences along the way. "The Clock Ticks Somewhere" is probably one of my favourite tracks from this year, what a jam. Best NTT album to date? Yessir. Support!

NIGELTHREETIMES is a producer and MC from Queens, New York. I discovered him last year thanks to his brilliant tape "Call Of The Void" on Pictureplane's label Alien Body Music. "Reflection: Infinite" is his follow-up album from May this year, a nine-track heavy collection of rad jungle and breakbeats, interpreted through NY lens. Raw energy mixed with skillful craftsmanship. Listening to Nigel's music brings back memories of the old school Dubstepforum days and finding gems like that.
Sick album, check it out here, and stream below.
