KIK: NIGHTSHIFT

KIK is the new project by Jonathan Uliel Saldanha and João Pais Filipe, central figures in the sonic world of HHY & The Macumbas. Replacing acoustic instruments with drum machines and intricate sound design, the duo explores the territory between deconstructed club music, polyrhythms and electronic abstraction. Their debut album, NIGHTSHIFT, features immersive soundscapes inspired by industrial grit, hypnotic repetition and the ghostly energy of nightlife spaces. Between beats and silence, KIK conjure intense sonic environments that are at once physical, cinematic and experimental.
