A hard-hitting voyage through the mind of Nilssi

Nilssi - High Born Voyage EP mastering

We were delighted when Antilounge Records’ Martijn Verlinden asked us to master their 19th release: Nilssi’s High Born Voyage EP.

Nilssi’s unique mixture of jungle, reggaeton, grime and dancehall, and bold, no nonsense production style created a nice challenge for 0L4F’s mastering skills: to maximize the impact of the sparse, but genius arrangements, where actually everything cuts through the mix.

Some tracks were mixed so well that they required minimum post work, and others proved more of a challenge.

We’re very pleased with the end result: a hard-hitting voyage through the mind of Nilssi, that now comes together as a single, focused journey.

Enjoy the release on all streaming platforms 🙂

Campaign photography was shot on location, and most locations were shot with and without models. With this material, we figured it would be a nice effect to zap the models into the scene one by one, accompanied by a flash whiteout.

The photography and dresses for this campaign were quite abstract and extreme, so we decided to present them in a slightly different way: a side-scrolling universe in parallaxed 2D.

ANTILOUNGE 22 - a milestone release for Antilounge Records from The Hague, has a brilliant concept. Released as double vinyl, with beats on one record, and drones on the other, it allows for DJs to mix both records into their own combinations of both.
