Nicholas Jaar was a name I knew for a while, but didn't pay much attention to. His name was thrown around as an up and coming electronic artist, but from what I had heard, he seemed like Just Another Electronic Musician to me. It wasn't until this past year's release by Darkside that he started to catch my ear. Darkside is New York's Jaar along with his touring guitarist Dave Harrington. This project is set apart from a standard electronic soundscape by Harrington's guitar work, which merges into a spacy and textured groove through most of the album. It's a satisfying mix of genres and emotionally moves the listener.
