Об исполнителе:
Nikakoi is an electronic music project of Nika Machaidze, a Georgian musician, producer, composer, and filmmaker. Machaidze started making electronic music in the mid-nineties, combining digital noises and IDM rhythms with melancholic melodies (often inspired by Georgian folk music). In 1999, Nika won Grand Prix at the Electronic Music Festival in Paris, where he appeared under a new artistic pseudonym 'Nikakoi' (as suggested by a friend Thea Djordjadze. In Russian, Никакой means “none”, “undefined”, “featureless”). Nikakoi released his debut album Sestrichka in 2002 on WMF Records in Berlin, followed by Shentimental next year. After a few years working under his new pseudonym Erast, Machaidze returned in 2009 with two releases on Laboratory Instinct: 2xCD compilation Selected (best tracks from both albums plus unreleased material), and a new double ambient album Requiem For Deranged Robot. This work marked a significant shift in Nikakoi's artistic style and consisted of two rhythmless ambient tracks and a collection of sublime piano-based electronic soundscapes on the second disc. In 2012, Nikakoi released a new album in Japan – Rays, a collaboration with Tokyo-based musician Coppé. His most recent work, Raise Your Head And Smell The Air EP, was released on Transfigured Time in 2016.
