Master of the smoked out, chilled out sound, Nightmares On Wax began by producing heavy, experimental acid and techno cuts, before neatly turning things in their head with the release of the seminal album; Smokers Delight. Forging a partnership between weighty hip-hop beats and clever samples, the album became an instant classic. With the release of Mind Elevation in 2002 however, Nightmares On Wax delivered an album of perfect pop music, as good as it was unexpected and as clever lyrically as it was sonically, with the deep beats one of the few remaining clues to their past. Now in 2008 things go almost full circle, with a return to more laid back sounds on the latest, excellent album; 'Thought So'.
