[LISTEN UP] NICOLAS JAAR & THEATER ROOSEVELT - THE EGO

On the craziest, most ludicrous shopping day of the year in America, Nicolas Jaar dropped a free, slick, dubby track on his label’s Clown and Sunset Soundcloud. “The Ego” features Jaar’s nocturnal electronic work underneath a monologue from a voice known as Theater Roosevelt, or “Teddy’s ghost”. The deep voice culls together what appear to be soundbites from the 2012 Election in a thick Jamaican accent, which is probably the most fun you’ll ever have while hearing the words “a-let Detroit go bankrupt.” Check out the track below.

NICOLAS JAAR RELEASES "DON'T BREAK MY LOVE" IN A PRISM

I have not personally seen one of these yet but, you can listen to music from Nicolas Jaar on it! It is a self-contained aluminum “prism” of music — “a collection of lost memories” according to Nico Jaar’s own Clown & Sunset label, it features some unreleased Jaar tracks (including one with his Darkside collaborator Dave Harrington). Here’s one of the songs from the Prism that you’ve probably heard, and it happens to be the title track:

NICOLAS JARR DEBUTS DARKSIDE

Nicolas Jaar’s just released his latest project (with Dave Harrington), called Darkside. Jaar calls the record “the closest thing to rock & roll I’ve ever done,” I can see why he says that but, these track are more of a minimalist take with beats that will make you groove on. Highly Recommended. The Darkside EP is out now on Jaar’s own Clown & Sunset.
