Nicolas Jaar samples Kanye West on his new record

Jaar dropped the project last week under the pseudonym A.A.L. to little fanfare

February 24, 2018

Nicolas Jaar dropped a new record last week, but if this is the first time you're hearing about it, fear not: the release pretty much flew under everyone's radar. Jaar released the album, titled 2012-2017, under the pseudonym A.A.L. (Against All Logic).

It's worth noting that much of the house-indebted LP is comprised of material that has already existed in some capacity and is only now getting a formal release; it's well worth a comprehensive listen, regardless. Another surprise? Jaar prominently samples Kanye West on the track "Such A Bad Way," which draws from Yeezus's "I Am A God." Stream 2012-2017 in its entirety below.
