New Yorker Alan Nieves debuts on MU’SE to close the year as he delivers his two-track ‘Chit Chat’ EP.

Based in New York but a name quickly appearing at key shows and venues across the globe, from The BPM Festival to Amsterdam Dance Event, DJ and producer Alan Nieves is a rising name making an impact in the house and tech house scene. With releases to date via the likes of Deeperfect, Wow! Recordings, Roush and elrow Music, the blossoming American has gained key support from the likes of The Martinez Brothers, Erick Morillo and Marco Carola to name just a few, and following his most prolific year to date he now touches down on Dennis Cruz and Eddy M’s MU’SE as he reveals his ‘Chit Chat’ EP.

Opening cut ‘Chit Chat’ engages slick rolling percussion amongst resonant synth stabs and sporadic vocal interjections and coos throughout, before transitioning into the paired-back ‘Third One’, armed with wandering synth lines, organic drum licks and further infectious vocal work.
