The Gaslamp Killer - Nissim ft. Amir Yaghmai

William Blake wrote, “If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.” The Gaslamp Killer has kicked in the doors between genres his entire career, charting infinite pathways that connect hip-hop, rock, electronic, psychedelia, and more music pulled from deep crates of dust-kissed vinyl. At Low End Theory - the internationally-renowned Los Angeles club night and beat scene mecca he co-founded - his devastating and unpredictable resident DJ sets were shaman-like ceremonies, his wiry limbs mixing, cutting, and scratching records with surgical precision while the bass coursed through his flailing body.
On 2012’s Breakthrough, Gaslamp transmuted the spontaneous chaos of his heartfelt and genre-spanning live shows into a revolutionary album that encapsulated the breadth of the beat scene while expanding its boundaries.
The album’s core is “Nissim” (later featured in Grand Theft Auto V). An ode to Gaslamp’s deceased grandfather and older brother co-written with Amir Yaghmai (of Julian Casablancas’s The Voidz), “Nissim” is also a poignant reminder that you don’t need floor-quaking bass to move millions. Gaslampbrings the beat scene to the bazaar, accompanying Yaghmai’s emotive plucking of the yiali tambur with a propulsive breakbeat barrage. As he does on the rest of Breakthrough, Gaslamp synthesizes his disparate influences to create intensely personal music, the impulsiveness of his live sets sacrificed for an even deeper connection. So long as we have the means of playing music, Breakthrough will show listeners that sound is limitless.
Nissim was written by GLK & Amir Yaghmai and is now available as a limited 7” on thegaslampkiller.com along with a bunch of other commemorative merch celebrating 10yrs of his first album Breakthrough.

Listened to this 10 years ago via GTA radio and still listen to it during a long drive 🥂

maaaate i was wondering why it sounded so familiar, no waaay

GTA IV I downloaded the game on my XBOX One awhile back just for the music.

Anatolian Psychedelic at it best. Cem Karaca and Barış Manço is smiling from the sky. Too bad 60's and 70's Turkey will never back again

Great comment! I inherited three Baris Manco albums from my father and still have them.

It won't but be like then, but Altin Gün is a band that had their debut album in 2018 and makes music inspired by Anatolian psychedelic music. You should check them out, they're also great live

This song was mixed over the end of Waveforms and it worked incredibly well in GTA.
