Beyond a veil of lush musical sensibilites and melodic digital chimes, NICOLAS’s latest cut “HIGH SPEED” is steeped in introspection. An instrumental inquiry into the inner workings of a society too far gone, the rising producer crafts aural worlds characterized equally by ocean-deep thinking and composition. An accessible listen, “HIGH SPEED” flows with a narcotic four-on-the-floor beat that rolls under dreamy synths and looping vocal samples courtesy of NICOLAS himself. An atmospheric house anthem with more to it than meets the eye, “HIGH SPEED” offers meditations on reality and sound. Speaking on the ephemeral track NICOLAS asks, “Did we push too far? Is It already too late to stop and turn around? Sometimes I feel like the fast paced digital universe we live in is too complex for us to understand, for us to stay in control, if we’ve ever really been in control before.”
