Nautiqua

Seventeen vignettes of aquatic, tape-hiss hip-hop. A sun-bleached collection of beats that feel like watching the tide come in through a vintage camera lens.

July 30, 2021 · Vinyl Digital

A serene and sun-drenched aquatic daydream that feels like a faded memory of the coast.

Moments Worth Listening For

The way the muffled aquatic textures on 'Aqvarium' make the drums feel like they are beating from beneath the surface.

The transition into 'Liquid Bossa' where the rhythmic swing shifts into a gentle, jazz-inflected sway.

The brief, hazy interlude of 'Salty sea' that serves as a literal sonic palette cleanser of shore-side ambience.
