  • Nicolas Jaar is set to release a new compilation through his Clown and Sunset label, featuring himself alongside fledgling producers Nikita Quasim and Soul Keita. Entitled Ines, the full-length will follow two mini-compilations on Clown and Sunset, both of which exclusively showcase the aforementioned three artists. Much like Jaar, Soul Keita and Quasim are unusually young producers: the former is a 17 year old from Addis Ababa, the latter a 20 year old from Russia. Musically, Soul Keita limits himself to Ethiopian traditional instruments and an 808 drum machine. As for Quasim, her interest in music composition supposedly began at the age of 11, when she made a field recording of various sounds from around her house as a birthday present to her mother. Ines features ten new productions in total from the trio of artists, including one that shoes all three collaborating for the first time as the Clown n' Sunset Collective. The release is digital-only, and will be available on a USB key as well as via download. Tracklist 01. Nicolas Jaar - Tribute to My Mother 02. Nikita Quasim - Freshmen Year 03.
