Nice Work Vol. 3

from Nice Work Vol. 3, the final volume!

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end - Lucius Annaeus Seneca" - Semisonic

The final volume of the Nice Work series...and how nice it's been! From the start of this series the ethos has been to release a continual, if not instant, flow of tracks to steadily document the creative practice inspired by a 1985 treatise on the topic titled Art & Fear.

And of course to, like, drop big heavy groovers.

Nice Work Vol. 3, Fennec's most personal entry into the series, does just that with tracks made last month and some that were started over 3 years ago. Opener "I Luv It" (which you may recognize from Fennec's "a dj set under the texas sun") begins with a moody piano loop before descending into pure subterranean goodness with more breaks & bongos than you can shake a stick at.

Next up, it's the track that DJs have been hounding Fennec for every time he plays it; that's right, it's CLAM TIME Y'ALL. "Vongole Asporto" (aka “takeaway clams”) has it all: serial killer interviews, warped television feedback, and dubby girl group echoes from your dreams. After sweating your soul out, it's time for a snack break. On "Snack Dub" we take a brief meditation on a piano loop filtering up and down until poor Mr. Drum Machine can't machine no more.

We end with a little comfort, a little consolation, and a ton of loopy reassurances with "Better" which eventually, as all things do, breaks loose into a chopped up blitz of soul-infused madness. It's gonna be fine, just give it some time!

Who are we? Where are we going? Where have we come from? What is the best kind of potato chip? Nice Work Vol. 3 answers these questions, and more.
