Abby Diamond shares third single “Nice and Slow”
NYC-based artist Abby Diamond's single "Nice and Slow" is the third entry full in her moon series of singles, produced by, and co-written with close friend Max Vehuni of slenderbodies. The ethereal record oozes sultry femininity with its multi-layered dreamy textures and Diamond's earworm melodic performance. The record was birthed during a period of recurring insomnia triggered by personal loss, where Diamond found the inner strength to transform her turmoil into words of affirmation on wax. Vehuni did a madness with the production, from the warm inviting chords and sound design but that one element that caught me off guard was the boom-bap-drum groove used here. It's reminiscent of late 90s Gangstarr records crafted by DJ Premiere.
