Listen To Nicky By Nicky's Album 'Pan Global Sound Hole'

Following sterling run of tracks casually released onto the Nicky By Nicky Bandcamp page over the past twelve months, former Cut Of Your Hands frontman Nick Johnston has unveiled an entire new album of material from the Tāmaki Makaurau artist's solo project. A collection of oceanic soundscape works, Nicky By Nicky's Pan Global Sound Hole gathers together seven primarily instrumental tracks sporting such vibe-setting titles as 'Thick-Leaved Aloe', 'Forget The Eternity' and 'Infidelity Excuse'. Exhibiting a microscopic attention to texture and tone, Nicky By Nicky serves up quite a varied palette — incorporating electronic glitch-scapes, field recordings, new agey echoed piano, sparkly synth washes and Hype Williams / Omit-like drones into the collection's emotionally affecting sonic drift, even offering two minutes of haunted folk on 'Loud Frying Pan In Background'. Ideal listening while gazing across the city skyline and contemplating the world on this grey wet Thursday, tune into Nicky By Nicky's Pan Global Sound Hole here...
