Released: October, 2005

Metropolis is a 1927 silent science fiction film directed by Fritz Lang. It is set in a futuristic urban dystopia and examines a common science fiction theme of the day: the social crisis between workers and owners in capitalism. The film stars Alfred Abel as the leader of the city, Gustav Frihlich as his son, who tries to mediate between the elite caste and the workers, Brigitte Helm as both the pure-at-heart worker Maria and the debased robot version of her, and Rudolf Klein-Rogge as the mad scientist who created the robot.
Nick worked in conjunction with Alamo Drafthouse to produce a live turntable score for the film and he performed it live several times. This is a live recording from one of those screenings.

In 2004 Nick was afforded the opportunity of going on tour with RJD2 and Diverse. He wasn't going to make much money on the tour, but it would serve as a great promotional opportunity, so he took it. While in Montreal, Quebec, the van was broken into (pictured on CD cover) and all his personal records, personal CD collection, mixer, needles, etc... were stolen. His total loss was around $5,000 worth of personal property. Unfortunately this is real life and these things happen. However, Nick decided to put together this mix, in an effort to help cover the losses.

NickNack "Robot Carnival (Live Turntable Score)"
Released: January, 2004

Downloads: 107
After Alamo Drafthouse booked Nick to do a live turntable score for the Robot Carnival Japanimation shorts, the demand for this score was so high we had to press it up. To be clear, this is Nick's live turntable set, as heard at the Alamo Drafthouse screening of Robot Carnival.
For those that don't know about Robot Carnival...
Before Animatrix, before there was Neo-Tokyo, there was Robot Carnival. Part grand experiment and part anime showcase it was conceived in 1987 as a chance to get some of the best anime directors to flex their anime muscles in short form. Robot Carnival is a collection of shorts with a mecha theme that offers something for almost every anime fan, even if you aren't a fan of giant robots and the traditional robot revenge epics (although there is some of each in the mix). The collection of 8 sequences is a joy to behold and spans the breadth of the mecha genre. It has an excellent twisted sense of humor in the form of Introduction (by Katsuhiro Otomo of Akira fame, poignant drama in the form of "Presence" (Yasuomi Umetsu director of "Gatchaman" and "Kite") and the languid line drawings of "Clouds" (Mao Lambdo), as well as by the book mech stories for both girls and boys ("Starlight Angel" Hiroyuki Kitazume who directed Moldiver, and Aura Battler Dunbine and was character designer for Megazone 23 and "Deprive" Hidetoshi Omori , the director of Urusei Yatsura [aka Lum] respectively). Rounding out the set is the humorous "A Tale of Two Robots" (by Hiroyuki Kitakubo director of "Rojin Z" and "Blood: the Last Vampire") a parody of Japanese war propaganda films and "Nightmare" (Takashi Nakamura Director of Catnapped and an animator on Nausicaa) which is a nod to Night on Bald Mountain from Disney's Fantasia. There is a reason why this anthology is still being shown in this day and age of "the next new best thing" anime, experience it for the first time or again for nostalgia's sake. (Tony Salvaggio)

"Lacerations" was NickNack's first professional mixtape release (meaning the first time he had tape professionally made/duped). It was recorded on his 4-track in 1995. This tape is very similar to "N-Fection" in the sense that it is a undergroung hip hop tape featuring many rare grooves. It is jammed packed with 90 minutes of non-stop hip hop. Cover design done by Point 5.

This came out JUST before Lacerations and was dropped right when Nick moved to Austin, TX to attend UT. He hit up Kinkos to xerox the cover and hand duplicated 50+ copies of the tape himself. Thankfully you can enjoy it digitally now ;)
