We’ve waited long for this! A new album from psych legend Nick Nicely will be out on September 29th. Sleep Safari goes further into electronics than his previous releases while continuing his psychedelic journey. You can pre-order the new album here
The Big Takeover has the world premiere of Nicely’s new single “Solar Wind”. Nicely explains the meaning behind the song and video, “Its insomniac life where sleep is so light that you lie just beneath its soft surface. There the dreams get you as turbulent nocturnal winds blow in.”
He continues, “Disconnected fragment dreams, some lonely, others illogical and alienated. A twin appears, underwater trains, speaking winds. A friendless walk through a timeless bar to find psychedelic salvation by the toilets. Naturally, surrealist resonances have bled in to further pull the absurd from the plain .. all in a place that you know won’t be there in the morning.”
