On Friday, Nutritious released The Soft Dark, a three-track EP shaped by lift and weight, openness and depth. A luminous corridor where sky, earth, and sea converged, The Soft Dark moves with a quiet force—frequencies mending, edges softening, and the unseen emotional terrain between us becoming suddenly, unmistakably alive.
Across its movements—“Ether,” “Cenote,” and “Humanity”—the EP traces a journey of perception, reflection, and shared aspiration.
“Ether” opens the project with spaciousness and clarity, evoking the luminous interval between forms. It serves as the quintessence—the shining air that made meaning connective, where consciousness widened to its edges and thought lifted into bliss. In this celestial medium, listeners are invited to settle, expand, and unify.
“Cenote” follows as an eternal mirror, glowing with pristine waters and cosmic echoes. A tranquil refuge, it moves with magic ripples that guide listeners from ocean’s calm into a boundless, timeless dream—an immersion into stillness and the deeper self.
Closing the EP is “Humanity,” a map older than memory—stone to star, caravan to circuit. Signals bloom into song, wonders answer wonders, and the long arc of our making becomes audible. Here, love is the technology and hope the time, a reminder of what connects us and carries us forward.
Together, the three compositions form a world: luminous, rhythmic, reflective, and endlessly evolving.
A Visionary Behind the Sound
The Soft Dark arrives from an artist whose impact reaches far beyond the dancefloor. With 50M+ Reels views, frequent Top 5 and Top 10 chart positions, and a legacy of bridging creativity with cultural transformation, Nutritious stands as a singular voice in contemporary electronic music.
A creative visionary and cultural alchemist, he is known for blending sonic innovation with a deep commitment to community, wellness, and artistic collaboration. His work—spanning A&R at Liquid Culture, joining the founding team at DoubleBlind Magazine, and contributing to the New York Times bestselling book Living Well—reflects a career devoted to imaginative expansion and meaningful connection.
His past releases, including the acclaimed 2023 album Blurs (Paper Recordings, UK) with cover art by design legend John Van Hamersveld, held top chart positions and highlight his signature sound. His performances—from the Whitney Museum of American Art to Ultra Music Festival, New York Fashion Week with Rodarte, and international club stages—establish him as a magnetic live presence known for improvisation, spontaneity, and emotionally transporting sets built on three to four turntables with live remixing.
A lifelong musician, his early residencies at New York institutions like Save The Robots and legendary clubs such as CBGBs and Tramps shaped his evolution into a boundary-pushing artist thriving at the intersection of culture, creativity, and community. His collaborations span musicians, designers, filmmakers, and global brands, and his philanthropic work has raised more than $150,000 for meaningful causes.
