[Photocred: Jake Hanson] – Remember Seattle musical hero Thats Nokay? We had the pleasure of featuring him not long ago, proudly declaring: “a project that doesn’t focus on a particular literary element, instead projecting all the attention on the musical matter, letting the music’s mesmerising sonic landscape pull the listeners in.” We stand by our words. The American talent has a rather unique style, using modern electronica, sophisticated hip-hop and shoegaze-flavoured guitars to create an irresistible sonic formula, the kind of recipe capable to gain him a very large audience.
For now, Thats Nokay continues on his personal path to musical Olympus. He does so by sharing a full-length record, ‘Radical Presence’. Collecting past singles and brand-new offerings, the album is a deep dive into everything the project has to offer. Celebrating new beginnings and old achievements, ‘Radical Presence’ seeks to highlight Thats Nokay’s artistry, showcasing material that’s highly poignant, emotional and transformative.
The listening experience is at times soothing, at others melancholic, but always incredibly beautiful and emotional. A big part of that can be found in Thats Nokay’s ethereal, light vocals, floating over the music with infinite wisdom. ‘Radical Presence’ is a stunning record, one that we urge you to discover.
