"Speculator's first album, Lifestyle, was a fantastic cassette release that dropped last year via Leaving Records. According to Nick, his goal was to not only to sample from a plethora of artists using various methods, but to also create his own analog recording equipment to archive the project. Now, with his first vinyl release from the inimitable Underwater Peoples, Speculator's Nice strays far from the samples (only two tracks on the record include them), yet still includes all of the artifacts used to create Lifestyle. With this record, he seeks to give us the songs he was interested in writing, and while he admits that it's not an "easy" listen, this first peek at the album is proof that if given the time, there is plenty of beauty to be gleaned from Speculator's brand of fuzzy pop" (Vía: Jheri Evans, Get Off The Coast)
