I love Nikka

Well, finally Weeklybeats came to an end. It's been 52 wonderful weeks with you, guys. Getting inspiration from all across the globe, and being constantly amazed of wath a bunch of individuals could achieve in such a short period.

I'm already missing you, guys smile

It would be great to hear from you and maybe cook some project together, at a slower pace. Guess I'm not the only one who had struggled to keep the deadline. It's my first "perfect score" with 52 releases, so I'm very proud.

My last release is somewaht special for me. a project which I mainly completed in '06, at the top of my ModplugTracker skills. I've felt that something is missing, ever since, and never got released beyong my personal headphones. So I give you my (maybe) first bleep/chip/glitch hop piece ever, wondering if it is worth it all those years. There's some Ableton mastering over it, but all the arrangement is pretty intact.

"I love Nikka" was inspired by a (sadly) one-hit wonder: "Like a feather" by Nikka Costa and my first Unix DEC Sparkstation... I thought this sounded like a sexy Unix OS way of life... in a way. I'm pretty nerdy, I know.

So, that being said, I wish you a really great 2017. Have a great week and incoming year. Hope some of us will keep in touch, and I'd love to stay around and check all the tracks I've missed, so we keep hanging out in the comment section a little beat.

Feliz Año Nuevo!!! Love and positivity to all!!! I'm already looking forward to another Weeklybeats 2018 smile
