Highly talented producer and DJ, Jack Leech, known professionally as Nurko, has had a career year in 2020 despite a distinct lack of live gigs. His brand of euphoric dance has seen some serious traction with new fans across the globe, thanks in part to multiple livestream performances via Digital Mirage and Alone Together online music festivals. With his final offerings of the year, Nurko will be releasing ‘Blindspot’ with Devon Baldwin in a multipart series, seeing Part 1 release on December 1st, and Part 2 on December 15th.
‘Blindspot’ sees Nurko work alongside Devon Baldwin, a prolific singer-songwriter, best known for her multiple collaborations with Platinum-selling artists G-Eazy and blackbear. A change of pace from Baldwin’s typical productions, Nurko shifts ‘Blindspot’ into an entirely new sonic space, trading melancholic notes for uplifting chord arrangements and synth stabs. Reflecting on past relationships, lyrically the single paints a tumultuous picture of weaknesses colliding with substances and raw, unfiltered emotion.
‘‘Blindspot’ is about the changing of a relationship through time. Even though things seem to have gone south, you still feel so deeply for the other and don’t want to lose them. With all of the hardships, they still mean so much to you. We represent this in a 2 part EP. The music varies in intensity, taking you on an emotional journey, but ultimately ending on a happy note’ – Nurko
