Nite Jewel Featured on New Droop-E Track – “N the Traffic”

Welcome to Tuesday. Nite Jewel recently joined forces with Droop-E, a rapper and producer out of the Bay Area. What we have now is the new track “N the Traffic,” from Droop-E’s forthcoming EP Hungry and Humble (details at Pitchfork). Listen to the song above!

“…all shimmering, spring water-clear chords and cavernous wobble. It’s both weightless and heavy while avoiding the pitfall of tipping the scale too far in either direction.” – PITCHFORK

Ramona has a few tour dates coming up later this month and also in April! See where exactly she will play HERE.

WEEKEND VIBES // New Video for Nite Jewel’s “Weak For Me”

Here’s a new video for Nite Jewel’s “Weak for Me”, found first at VICE’s Noisey! Directed by Jose Wolff (“Clive”), the video features a dancing Ramona and lots of geometric shapes. “Weak For Me” is off Ramona’s Good Evening, which we just rereleased earlier this week. You will find Good Evening Expanded Reissue at SC Distribution.

“We could call Nite Jewel a “gem,” but it would be way too damn easy. LA’s Ramona Gonzalez makes dance music with an intimate, tactile twist, dunked in a viscous mix of 80s glitter and 90s lo-fi.” – Noisey

RELEASE DAY // Nite Jewel’s ‘Good Evening Reissue’ Out Today

Originally released on Gloriette Records in 2008, the expanded reissue features two bonus tracks, a cover of Can Forebear Inner Space’s “The Kamera Song” and a DaM-FunK remix of the Nite Jewel original “What Did He Say.” You can purchase Good Evening (Expanded Reissue) at SC Distribution, iTunes or at your local record store.
