Oct 13, 2017Green Twins realizes a sound that's truly Hakim's own.
-
May 18, 2017The album's potent mix of soul-searching lyrics and spaced-out sonics lends itself to deep thought and accompanied stargazing.

May 18, 2017Gleaning from such artists as Robert Wyatt, Marvin Gaye, and Shuggie Otis to The Impressions and My Bloody Valentine, as well as the personae of hip-hop elite like RZA, OutKast, and Madlib, Hakim has cultivated an abstract soul virtuality with elements of all the above. [Apr - Jun 2017, p.81]

The WireAug 8, 2017For all its kinkiness Green Twins is indubitably an R&B record (tracks like “Cuffed” and “JP” really can’t be described as anything else) and an exceptional one at that. [Jul 2017, p.52]

May 23, 2017The songs on Green Twins feel like attempts to save remnants of the cherished encounters that fill up a lifetime. So few of these moments last long. But Nick Hakim has set out to preserve his any way possible.

May 25, 2017Green Twins is impeccably tailored and has some gorgeous ideas. What it lacks is the confidence to stretch its colour palette into areas the listener might not immediately associate with other, trailblazing artists.
