about

Blasting signals out from the heart of Asheville, NC, Nikki Perri’s callmenikkip project is a part of the burgeoning new face of American electronic music, bringing a swath of textures, rhythms, and motifs from outside the usual bass music zeitgeist. Channeling a year’s worth of consistent, sometimes grinding creative work into a single package, her latest collection of tracks comes with fresh appeal and dynamic drum and bass compositions. Just in time for the Rusts 82nd release, we're incredibly excited to present callmenikkip’s it's just a phase EP to our wider fanbase.

Through four dedicated tracks, it's just a phase eschews the flattened dynamics and decibel-driven weight that have pushed key genres and styles in the American landscape for the last several years. Instead, through pivoting the focus towards the melodic and narrative elements in each track, callmenikkip lays out fundamental full-time rhythms that feel at home both on the dancefloor and in a solid set of headphones. Showcasing the creative bridge between physically and emotionally-charged dance music, each song is as palatable as the last, putting her grasp of music theory fundamentals fully on the same table as her clear rhythmic finesse. For fans and appreciators of high-fidelity, low-drag drum and bass music, it's just a phase will surely find a long-time home in any discerning catalog.

–––– callmenikkip on 'it's just a phase' ––––

“This EP is a reflection of the ups & downs of life. Like the moon, we all go through our moods & phases; however, at the end of the day, we must remember it's all temporary. These tracks were all written over the course of 2023, which was the most difficult year in my adult life thus far. Being the deeply emotional witchy/crystal girlie I am, I've always identified heavily with the symbolism of the moon and her phases. She reminds me to take a deep breath and remember: this too shall pass (which it did, and I'm so excited for the blessings that are manifesting this year after the trials and tribulations of the past).”

I keep playing and playing this over and over again. Sometimes more often than others but I always seem to come back for that inner geometric reset of the hologram 👽I feel like I’m listening to the best representation of light = electricity = what we are 🙌 been following David’s story for 20+ since London days. There’s no fav one for me, the geometry comes full circle and it’s perfect! The joy is in the mystery my fellow beings ☀️ Papas
