about

In Uneven Ground, his first-ever official release, NISSIM has created an intimate narrative space that traces his journey over the past eight years. The full-length album is a mindful introspection and melancholic contemplation of the composer’s own flaws. In his search for himself and his distinct sound, NISSIM has drawn on his own experiences to build a sequence of multidimensional soundscapes that lure his listeners deeper and deeper into a world that continuously recreates itself. The result is a highly personal ten-track album that marks NISSIM’s coming of age as an electronic music producer.

Produced and recorded between Berlin and Luxembourg with a minimal setup, all tracks are one-take recordings with no editing and hardly any mixing, just deep analog mastering. NISSIM considers the producer in him an alter ego that stands in stark contrast to the exactitude of his work as an audio engineer. “Whatever I recorded from my machines, that’s what stays. If it works, I’ll save it, and if it doesn’t, I’ll just delete it. When I try to capture current moods and ambiances, there’s no point of going back and editing things, that just doesn’t work for me”. The tracks unconventionally move on a wide spectrum of electronic music, combining a wealth of elements from various genres, thus creating unexpected sonic layers whilst showcasing a complex diversity in the arrangement, sound design, and rhythm.

In a refusal to follow any trend or current hype, the concept was to create a timeless story – authentic and personal – that captures moments of unmet expectations and disappointment. “These tracks are snapshots of points in my life when things didn’t go as well as I wanted them to and I felt disillusioned regarding certain aspects of my life”, says NISSIM. “You might consider it a sad album but to me, it’s rather a reminder to myself to value the lows you experience just like you appreciate the highs”.
