In his twenties the Italian producer Nicholas Iammatteo has already a decade-long, impressive and extensive discography. After last year’s album Lonnie’s Reprise (via Church) and the EP Sound Of Earth, he returns to the British Shall Not Fade imprint, delivering a luscious 4-track EP called A Message From The East.

The EP takes the listener on a journey of tranquility, through the use of dreamy pads, laid back drum sequences and choppy rhythms, representing a continuity on his work of recent years, exposing us to his extensive sense for deeper dance music. Released last week, Nicholas’ A Message From The East closes in style a golden year for Shall Not Fade. Available on vinyl.
