7 TRACKS:

Label XYZ’s first compilation comes in the form of Blanche – an annual series focused on collecting unique, innovative, and burgeoning artists, and shining a refreshed light on their art in the early days of the new year. From groovy to melodic, percussive to ethereal, Blanche represents the beginning of our explorations into 2020’s musical landscape. With newcomers and label favorites alike, the seven track release continues to harvest XYZ’s creative direction as an artist-first label, purveying talented producers with an insightful story to tell.

Leading the compilation is Nopi, for whom 2020 will surely be a career defining year. With releases on Kindisch, Dream Culture, Seven Villas, and a gem of an XYZ debut in the form of the November single Little Tree, the Ukranian is at the forefront of deep and melodic sounds.

For Blanche, we are thrilled to present two of his best productions thus far. Taking pole position for the release is Mayaya – a floating groover, stuffed with thick percussion and Nopi’s signature warm basslines from start to finish. It’s the perfect representation of Nopi’s ability to craft soundscapes that innately feel like home. Cosmic Madness, his second track on the compilation, closes out the project in proper chilled out manner. Calming tones and soft vocals rest on top of a light kick, creating a track for the quieter moments in winter.
