Additional information/sources for Nite Kite – Rust roest

Rust Roest’ is the first single off the upcoming debut album of Brussel-based artist Nite Kite. It will be released on all digital streaming platforms on February 17th, 2025.
After his previous EP ‘En Plein Air’ (2022) caught the attention of Belgian media, Nite Kite has ambitiously continued his journey. In the wake of that release, he invited other musicians to join him in playing his music. ‘Rust Roest’ is one of those first songs and the collective work shapes the song.
The resulting single is still wholly Nite Kite: melancholic piano melodies interwoven with hypnotic synth sequences, haunting yet always resolving with quiet hope. To highlight and accentuate spontaneous interplay and close friendships, he found an isolated studio in nature to host an eclectic group of musician friends. The final live-tracked performance is refreshingly human for an electronic genre; piano, synths, double bass, drums, and electronica come to life, weaving together (proof of) an intimate exchange, blurring the line between composition and pure improvisation.
This first single perfectly bridges the gap between Nite Kite’s earlier work, which came into being from a solitary process, and the upcoming album, a collective effort of more than ten people, and sets the mood for the forthcoming full album.
Artist quote: “This is really a song left lingering from the previous chapter of Nite Kite, minimalistic melodies written around sequences. Now I feel myself transitioning, together with the others, to a new, more collective phase of the music.”
