\nALBUM:<\/strong> Shut Your Trapper Keeper, <\/em>out now
\nWEBSITE:<\/strong> nnxtmusic.com<\/p>\n\u00a0From age 4, Jessica Gore was a piano prodigy who spent much of her childhood playing in classical competitions. But her musical direction changed entirely a few years ago, when she got her hands on a four-track digital recorder. \u201cIt totally blew my mind that more than one instrument or voice could play and sing at the same time,\u201d she recalls. \u201cI would sit in my room for hours upon hours just layering sounds.\u201d She began writing songs, and became fascinated with the process of music-making rather than the pretty faces that drew the attention of her peers. \u201cI stopped caring so much about the actual artists on the cover and more about the names in the credits,\u201d she says. \u201cMy dream was to see my name in those credits, not on the front cover.\u201dGore adopted a new moniker to go along with her one-woman-band electropop aesthetic, borrowing and modifying the name of the NN-XT sampler in the Reason digital music software program. Her first single, \u201cShut Your Trapper Keeper,\u201d became a local radio favorite in her hometown of Atlanta. An album of the same name was released in April 2011, but NNXT has since signed with DigSin\u2014a label built on a singles-only subscription model. Her latest is \u201cLove Superhero\u201d\u2014written, performed and recorded, like all her songs, by Gore alone in her home studio.No matter how it reaches fans, what\u2019s most important for Gore is that she has found her niche in the music world. \u201cMy brainchild, NNXT, was created through my fascination with pop songwriting and the natural marriage of electronic elements that I had in my possession,\u201d she says. \u201cI knew when I landed in NNXT-world, I was finally home. I see it as the perfect marriage of my two greatest passions: pop songwriting and electronic music.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
