About Nicola Cruz
Artist Biography
Nicola Cruz is an electronic musician, producer, and sound engineer. His beat-centric, trance-inducing sound seamlessly melds South American and East Indian folk instruments, African percussion, dubwise production, and electronica in a flowing meld of polyrhythms and international melodies. His music invokes and explores his Ecuadorian ancestral heritage, ancient mythologies, and folkloric traditions. Though he has been active since 2012, Cruz's first full-length album, Prender el Alma, was issued by the ZZK in 2015 and took listeners by surprise with its original, organic sound. In 2018, the Inversions EP placed historical instruments at the forefront of his mix. The six-track Sentimientos Encontrados followed in 2021 along with a range of singles. He issued the Self Oscillation EP in 2022.
