Ever thought about taking some time away with JUST your music? Inside this Golden Nugget episode, we’re travelling back to EP#27 to hear how musician and DJ Nik Nak did exactly that. What came out the other side was a collection of recordings from Turkey and a whole new methodology of DJing with environmental sound. Maybe an artist retreat could be the beginning of new creative horizons for you too?
