Nelver At Juno Download

Review: Russian newcomer Nelver has only a few releases to his name on liquid-minded label Focuz. This, his first outing on Triple Vision's Celsuis, is a double act of emotionally-charged drum and bass straight from the Moleman and Netsky school of twinkling piano ad-libs and soaring strings. "Back To The Past" is an airy-light swooper, fiddling with percussive textures and bright sparks of soulful vocals. "Last Challenger" comes down smooth with melancholy guitar meddlings and sharp percussion driving things forward. Two well-balanced tracks any new producer would be proud to put their name to, Nelver is definitely one to watch.

Review: A classically-trained Russian purveyor of progressive DnB, Nelver likes the more contemplative side of dance music. If Chris Martin were to make a DnB record, it would probably sound a lot like "Memories Of You" - all soft emotive keys and epically melancholic melodies. "What I Think" however, features more urgent beats this time married to dreamlike jazzy atmospherics.
