At just 17 years old, Nikko is already demonstrating an uncanny ability to weave sounds and emotions that belie his age, and his new EP serves as a prime example.
It's been a series of recent firsts for the rising producer, who after making his live debut with Brownies & Lemonade, teamed up with NIGHTMODE on his first record release. Deceiver.
The EP begins with “BETTER4U”, a track that effortlessly combines the nostalgic charm of classic house with a contemporary style. The result is a song that feels like a heartfelt nod to the past while planting itself firmly in the present, showcasing Nikko's ability to bridge the generational worlds of dance music.
On the other hand, “Masta” is a bold departure into the realm of trap music, marked by a sinister intro that quickly turns into a full-blown aural assault. This track is a masterclass in tension and release, with pitch-shifting vocal changes and a relentless barrage of warped bands that keep listeners on the edge of their seats. With “Masta,” Nikko aptly captures the raw, unbridled energy of the genre while infusing it with a level of controlled chaos and creativity that is often reserved for genre veterans.
An offering that ranges from the nostalgic to the innovative, Nikko's debut album marks a significant milestone in his burgeoning career. Check out the EP below and find it on streaming platforms. here.
