Skinny Atlas SHARES DEBUT EP ‘NOWHERE KID’

Today, Goshen, NY-based producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Skinny Atlas shares his debut EP Nowhere Kid via Nettwerk. Long known for his lofi beats and collaborations with artists in the “sad rap” space, this EP leans more into folk/singer-songwriter influences; more Bon Iver than hip-hop.

Largely drumless, the seven-track Nowhere Kid is Skinny Atlas at his most stripped down and vulnerable. In a major milestone, the acoustic folk track “From the Outside” is the first track he’s ever released with his own singing, and showcases his songwriting ability to speak about romance without rose-colored glasses. As he gently sings: “I know it’s complicated / This whole love thing’s not the greatest / Trying to make a point of seeing my worth from the outside,” Skinny draws on personal experience to encourage listeners to establish healthy relationships with themselves independent from their significant others.

Elsewhere, there’s “Don’t Ever Think Twice,” which features one of lofi’s most popular artists Powfu, as well as a music video. Part alternative, part emo and part indie folk, this poetic and reflective track is full of lines to write in your diary, late at night, when everyone else is asleep. “I see demons, different spots of your past / But with me, I’ll treat your heart like it’s glass,” croons Powfu on the hook.
