Description
It�s been six years since Nosaj Thing, the producer born Jason Chung, appeared among the vanguard of Low End Theoryaffiliated producers from Los Angeles.His debut LP Drift, a sleek and futuristic record shot through with a sense of melancholy, was hailed as a landmark record for the �beat scene�, both embodying its aesthetic and transcending it with its focus on mood, texture on tone as much as on beats. Pitchfork called it �gorgeously haunted�, and Resident Advisor said it �exists in its own dimension.�
If Drift was an impressive full-length debut, then Home, its 2013 follow-up and Nosaj Thing�s first record for Innovative
Leisure, consolidated that potential. Now, Fated is the sound of an artist whose sound has had time to mature. By stripping away anything he didn�t deem strictly necessary, Chung harnessed a sound notable for its directness and emotional potency. Guest appearances are rare, save for vocals from Chicago rap phenomenon Chance The Rapper on �Cold Stares�, his unusually grave cadence deepening the paranoia of the already tense track, and Whoarei on �Don�t Mind Me�.
