21 year old Nicolas Jaar grew up between Santiago, Chile and New York City, riding the cross currents of musical influences. At 17 Jaar made is debut with his first record on record label Wolf & Lamb, but now runs his own show with a record label called Clown & Sunset. His long, infectious melodies rely on distinctly Jaarian beats that include lots of echoes, sound effects, and strong, haunting, beautiful, multidimensional layers of vocals. Together with guitarist Dave Harrington, Jaar has just released a new EP under the name Darkside. With hints of Pink Floyd’s soaring choruses and interludes, Darkside’s new EP is the perfect soundtrack to being buried alive with the girl of your dreams.
