In Iceland, Thomas Stankiewicz contemplates the constant flux of the elements. A composer & musician in his own right, he selectively weaves in between soundtracks, classical music, and evocative ambient sounds, symphonically unveiling untold stories from past and future… @tommmasi

There's an old Brian Eno quote that is inevitably referenced when talking about the Velvet Underground - something along the lines of "They only sold 30,000 copies of their first album, but everyone who bought the album started a band". It's slightly inaccurate (they sold a lot more copies), but the message is clear: few bands have had such an outsized, potent, and wide reaching effect on the musicians that followed in their footsteps. Their stubborn desire to continually approach songwriting from the left field, and continuous sonic reinvention reverberated for decades, influencing punk, post-punk, art rock, ambient music, even notably influencing real political revolution in Czechoslovakia. Two hours of The Velvets' best, selected and mixed by Claire Rousay.

SIDEPIECE

SIDEPIECE

SIDEPIECE has been played on NTS in shows including Whodis? w/ 56 DJs, featured first on 7 April 2022. Songs played include On My Mind.

Sidepiece is the brainchild of Dylan Ragland (Party Favor) and Ricky Mears (Nitti Gritti). Barely over two years old, Sidepiece has already racked up some of the most prestigious awards in dance music, being nominated for a Grammy for Best Dance Recording in 2021, as well as having the #1 most supported dance record in the world in 2020, and achieving platinum and gold certifications in a dozen countries for their breakout hit “On My Mind.” The duo has rapidly become one of the most sought after house acts in the industry, playing some of the most iconic venues and festivals around the globe and racking up hundreds of millions of plays on streaming platforms.

Highly esteemed producers in their own right, Party Favor and Nitti Gritti came together in 2019 to form SIDEPIECE and saw them unite their styles and help them earn a reputation for sliding between genres on the electronic music spectrum, whilst keeping firm footholds in the bass and trap worlds. Party Favor is Ragland’s genre-bending bass project counting over 400 million streams and multiple chart toppers to his name globally, having collaborated with the likes of Gucci Mane, Baauer, Dillon Francis, A$AP Ferg, and more, while currently rolling out his sophomore artist LP RESET through Ultra. Whereas, Nitti Gritti is a Latin Grammy Award and a Latin Billboard Music Award winning producer for his work on Bad Bunny’s album ‘x100pre’ and the song “200MPH”, along with recently being given the #14 spot in the ‘2020 Best Producers’ ranking.
