Nice Nice's sweet new fucking cut is fantastic!! 'See Waves' has an afro-beat meets Battles sound and nearly made me wet mi pants!! The production's lavish and is full of different instruments. It sounds a bit like 'Biko' (the song not the political prisoner). The B-side is ace too, it washes over you with its cinematic scope and stays with you long after youve left it... Maybe it's the aural equivolent of a three day binge with Russell Crowe. It's on Warp and its out now muthacrushas!!!!
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

Following their first ever UK shows in November, which saw them play alongside the likes of Battles, Flying Lotus, Broadcast and Wavves, as well as releasing their debut single ‘One Hit’, Nice Nice (Portland-based duo Jason Buehler and Mark Shirazi) return in 2010 with a new single and video.
‘See Waves’, taken from their forthcoming debut album ‘Extra Wow’, is a sprawling psychedelic monolith opus, introducing itself with an imposing frenetic rhythm before breaking apart into a glorious sonic kaleidoscope. The track is backed with non-album track ‘We Stayed’ on the B side.
The band have also released a psychedelic powerhouse of a video for ‘Everything Falling Apart’, a track from their forthcoming debut album, directed by Yoshi Sodeoka.
