Here is your chance to see where the creative process goes down with Nicolay and his music, direct from his home studio in North Carolina. It is nice to see the workspace after years of enjoying the magic he's laid down on Connected, Here, City Lights, Timeline and more great albums. I enjoy Nicolay's work in R&B and Soul but I really appreciate the unique musical touch he's contributed to hip hop, bringing more imagination and deeper influences to the table. Enjoy this look into his workspace.
