Love this album. So many unique sounds and textures. This covers a broad range of compositions, from tracks that enable you to ponder and visualize, to faster grooves that gets your body moving. I think this record sits in its own category as I’ve never really heard anything like this before. Looking forward to Kino’s next body of work.
Favorite track: Tółikan.

about
Pronunciation: Neh-Hyeh-Muh Nah-Hoss-Dzawn
Nihimá Nahasdzáán, Kino Benally’s first release under his own name, is seen as a fond departure from his earlier work as DJ Béeso, with a shift from the Electronic/Club music of his past releases, to Nihimá Nahasdzáán, which is an intricate and layered conceptual piece with soundscapes and many moments of reverence for traditional Diné Musical Structure and Practice.
The album title, Nihimá Nahasdzáán which roughly translates to, “Our Mother, Mother Earth,” gives Kino the proper space to give tribute to Ké’ or kinship and the complete interconnectedness of everything. Kino builds a home with each song describing an object, concept, or place in his world all while featuring many longtime collaborators and colleagues along the way.

this EP is great! Namorada and its remix by Gyro are two of the best tracks I've heard recently & this whole record is very exciting and well done. Elegant, deep with detail, and energetic.
