Jex Opolis Presents: In The Nite "Look At My Car!"
Record/Vinyl
Jex Opolis Presents: In The Nite—"Look At My Car!," a versatile new EP featuring three cosmic cuts from Jex and Ian D. Knight, a St. Louis-based performance artist.
After a chance meeting at a Knight performance in Chelsea last winter, the pair decamped to Jex’s NY-based rooftop greenhouse/studio for a two-week session of music and vaping.
With Knight on-hand mostly for spiritual guidance and janitorial duties, the tracks flowed like organic wine and the wine flowed like really smooth music.
Knight features most prominently on the Compass Point-tinged “Look At My Car!,” a Paean to the joys of both consumerism and rampant motorism.
On the flip, Jexy whips out the Strat for some Chic-inspired licks on the chugging “Guitar Sands," with the Italo-bumping 120 BPMer “Rimini Nites” along for the ride, too.
DIGITAL BONUS: "Cairo Nite" is another chugger, with Knight kicking it with an Arabian inspired flute solo.
This 6-track compilation features artists from around the world creating deep, expressive, and ultra-dancefloor-ready rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 16, 2024
