Words of Niō makes his debut on Sudbeat with an exciting array of tracks. Patrice Baumel completes the package with a remix that shows his immense taste.

Ibiza-based, multi-instrumentalist, Words of Nio is an audio chameleon influenced in his early years by Underworld, Depeche Mode and Aphex Twin. He played and toured with various bands since he was 16. After his last band broke up, he took some time out to refocus, and by 2015 had moved to Ibiza to pursue a full-time music career again. Now signed to Renaissance, Get Physical and more, his sound is finding a wider audience and sound-tracking parties across the globe.

Opening with ‘Beside The Fire,’ a deep shaker-led groove reveals soft piano and delicate vocals. Very much focused on vibe and atmosphere, the deepness is punctuated by clever FX and mindful sonics. On the remix, Patrice Bäumel focuses on the vocal elements creating something of a Thom Yorke vocal arrangement that squeezes out every last drop of emotion. One more stellar work added to his outstanding discography.

Finally, the second original cut, ‘Whispers,’ follows a more tribal path. Emotive and vocal, its perfect for those 4am-deep-in-your-own-space groove-athons. Nuanced and incredibly detailed work from the new kid on the block!

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Whispers’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
