Nicolas Jaar Appreciation Day

Recently I’ve been satisfying my craving for chill, downtempo tunes with the very lovely music of Nicolas Jaar. A smooth combination of organic elements and electronic beats, something about the detail and complexity of Jaar’s tunes leaves me in awe after every listen. Jaar was born in 1990, only barely able to legally drink yet he already has his own label, “Cloud & Sunset” after having put out his first LP, “Space is Only Noise” on Wolf + Lamb this past year.

These may not be my favorite tunes to bring down the dancefloor but below are a few of the Nicolas Jaar tunes that always seem to find themselves on repeat in my iTunes. “Can’t See What’s Burning There” was included on Wolf + Lamb vs Soul Clap DJ Kicks that was released in 2009.
