nixx: The Sounds of Fleeting Optimism.

nixx is a brand new artist we came across after our posts about drama trial. He told us he had a song coming out very recently with drama himself and that he was super excited for us to hear it. We were instantly blown away with the unique sound and progression of the track. nixx came into the scene because of his love for song writing and has been at it for 6 years but, only creating music of his own for 3 months. Granted, the sound nixx has obtained in 3 months is already leagues ahead of some of the most decorated producers. nixx owns their sound and executes it confidently. nixx’a self proclaimed grunge music is not only hard hitting but, also inspirational with a blend of triumphant chord progressions and ethereal sounds playing them. Taking inspiration from the likes of rouri404, jane remover, and many more; you know strangers has the mixes that hit.

“zombie (feat. drama trial)” is no exception. starting with bubbly chord arps and choir stabs; the tone is set almost in a fairy tale state as nixx goes on about feeling like a zombie in more ways than one. Low energy, soul sucking, and no way of coherent thought are all ideas we can relate to and understand as the instrumental puts a warm blanket over the listener. The song abruptly drops into more of the grunge sound we mentioned earlier. Distorted guitars, hard drums, and fast hi hats flip the energy on it’s head and leaves you with a super satisfying ending as the synths slowly fade us out.
