Nick FV - Night House Session


With "Herning," Niko García invites us on a sonic journey through a landscape of peace and contemplation. This three-track EP, , is a work that fuses ambient and downtempo, creating an atmosphere that feels as vast and ethereal as the sunflower field gracing its cover.

In their esoteric symbolism, sunflowers represent the search for light, optimism, and joy. They are flowers that turn towards the sun, a perfect metaphor for Niko García's music, which seems to guide the listener toward a state of luminous introspection. Each track is a sunbeam illuminating a different corner of our consciousness.

"Herning" isn't just music; it's an experience. Its meticulously constructed sonic textures create an auditory tapestry that calms the mind and revitalizes the spirit. It is the ideal soundtrack for moments of meditation, for a solitary sunset, or simply for disconnecting from the world's noise and reconnecting with oneself.

This EP is a safe bet for genre lovers and a hidden gem for those seeking a soundtrack for their personal growth. Niko García, with his musical vision, has managed to capture the essence of a sunflower field: a natural beauty that, with its simplicity, reveals the complexity of the search for light. "Herning" is, without a doubt, a reminder that even in stillness, we can find the direction to bloom.

Ethen Bass - Returning (Jhordan Welsch Remix)

Had an absolute blast playing at the second volume for my collective, Drift State vol. 2! Stuck true to my progressive sound and the crowd loved it! Massive thank you to @sahatrix (Instagram handle) for taking sick shots, and for the Deep House Toronto members @thomashernanmusic and @djsamoan for coming through - having the opportunity to have @locotek play with us and to play before him was a real dream come true.

Had 3 decks in the mix the whole time again as I usually do and hope you guys enjoy! See you at the next Drift State event. 🫶🫶🫶
