Nakhane - Bastard Jargon (2023) [Official Digital Download]

Bastard Jargon: a pounding, physical, hot-blooded third album which sounds like grit sprayed over shiny pop. Written over 18 months in Lisbon, Ghent, Oxfordshire, London and Hastings, “It’s an existential sex album,” says the artist. “Almost every song on it has some kind of wink towards sex. It’s not necessarily a seductive, come to me, bedroom eyes kind of sex - it’s much more inquisitive, psychological sex. When I wrote ‘You Will Not Die’ it was at the end of my relationship with Christianity, and then when I wrote Bastard Jargon I’d moved to London and I threw myself into just wanting to feel good.” To realize this lustful vision, Nakhane recruited Nile Rodgers from Chic as executive producer. Other producers on ‘Bastard Jargon’ include John Congleton (St Vincent, Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten), Leo Abrahams (Wild Beasts, Brian Eno, Regina Spektor), Matthew Herbert , BLK JKS (a South African rock band), Max Hershenow (previously of MsMr), Emre Turkmen (previously of Years and Years) and Chab (sound engineer of Daft Punk, La Femme, Angèle). The album features Moonchild Sanelly, Nile Rodgers (Chic), Perfume Genius.
