So many artists have made this kind of ultra-disjointed minimal electronic music that it's hard to figure out where their careers all differ. On the right side of Aphex Twin and on the left of Ezekiel Honig or Elliott Lipp, NQ's music sounds like a robot malfunctioning over a pile of steel bars.
nils quak aka nq has been around for a while creating his subtle definitions of laptop music. his warm electronica tracks are made from rhythmic structures lifting and descenting, minimal clicks/cuts aesthetics, subtle breaks, waves of dusty fieldrecordings and melodic eruptions. the crafted young man has released records with progressive form and i can’t break you break records and various netprojects. he's also a member of the stfu-festival crew.
