NIXER
Nixer kickstart an exciting string of releases with their new single Freedom - an unflinching political statement.
Written and co-produced by Drogheda native Seán Keenan and Colin Moir in their Southeast London studio, the track marks a shift in the Nixer sound, leaning into a darker, more abrasive edge that has always simmered beneath their upbeat synth-punk aesthetic. It’s a song that confronts the current political climate head-on, explicitly addressing the genocide in Palestine while voicing a stark, almost desperate call for “peace in the Middle East.”
To coincide with their track Magnolia Mouth being used in a Sky TV advertising campaign (for Fierce Mild alcohol free beer), Nixer have released a new 2025 version and also a remix by legendary Irish DJ and producer Arveene. This is a streaming release and is available on Nixer's Bandcamp page.
Praise for Nixer
"Can't wait to hear more from the duo Nixer..."
- Lauren Laverne choosing People Feel as her 'While You Were Sleeping' track on BBC 6 Music
"That is particularly homemade music. Gentrification is a track by Nixer, Nixer is a new discovery of mine..”
- Iggy Pop, BBC 6 Music
“I love that one. That was Nixer with Gentrification. I think it’s such an exciting listen, just a real certain energy to it. Big ups Nixer!”
- Gemma Bradley, BBC ATL Introducing
“There’s something unique, yet reassuringly familiar with Nixer. I think the Irish accent for me alongside these new wave inspired sounds has me really fucking keen to hear more. It’s a sound and style I’m familiar with, but hearing accents I’ve not traditionally heard alongside these sounds is just fucking brilliant. I want to hear a Nixer album!"
- Sam Greenwood, Head of FOURFOURMAG.COM
“WOOOOOOW, I feel like I’ve just completely been smacked in the face. Yeah this is sick, I like it! There’s something really anxious about it, like you know you’re on a dancefloor but somebody has whispered in your ear that somebody on that dancefloor is gonna hit you, but you’re still having a good time but you’re just waiting for it. Yeah, that one’s a banger” – On Magnolia Mouth.
- Phil Taggart, BBC Radio 1
