Nightmares On Wax return with long-awaited new album Shape the Future.

Iconic producer George Evelyn aka Nightmares On Wax is one of the most influential artists of a generation, his music has inspired many musicians and producers across the globe over his quarter decade career.

As Warp’s longest serving active artist, he has broadened the sound of the label and paved the way for artists such as Flying Lotus, Hudson Mohawke and Mount Kimbie.

The perfect marriage of dub, hip-hop, soul and timeless club sounds that N.O.W. has been mutating and perfecting for years finds perhaps its most fluid form yet on Shape the Future.

Energized by globetrotting runs of studio sessions and DJ sets, this latest salvo is a masterpiece of contemporary and classic genre blending, brilliantly solidifying Nightmares On Wax’s place as an inspirational electronic music figurehead.

Shape the Future is Nightmares On Wax’s most collaborative record to date, with cameos from Andrew Ashong, LSK, Mozez, Jordan Rakei and Sadie Walker.

The album sees George feeling more ambitious both musically and with what he wants to achieve with the album.

“Making Shape the Future I've journeyed both inwardly and outwardly all over the world and both physically and emotionally,” explains Evelyn. “I feel like I had to mature making this record, as it posed a lot of challenges along the way – more than I anticipated. You’re a different person each day so I could never make the same album again – expressions change. I've brought in a lot of outside people including musicians and a lot of orchestration. It's brought a lot of enrichment. Each album to me is discovery and a reflection, a mirror where I’m at in life over a period of time through writing an album and touring. It's inspiring my reality or affecting my outlook on things and in turn is expressed through the music and expressing a message through different sides of emotion and our relationship to our reality.”
