Now Playing

Days

Shingo Nakamura epitomises everything I love about electronica — beautiful chord progressions, sweeping synths, no vocals, and this deep, ambient flavour mixed with the piano that takes you to another place. He clearly deserves a lot more recognition that he currently gets. I mean, he doesn’t even have a bio on his Apple Music artist page yet.

I found him on Beatport, and I’ve been playing his 2014 album Days for the last several weeks now, and it never gets old.

Anyway, all the tracks are outstanding—Side Trip, Orphic, Abyss, but the standout track for me easily is Travelog.
