Nurko

Some music gives you goosebumps. That music usually isn’t played in the club. Nurko wants to change that.

Jack Leech always knew he would be making music, it just took a while for him to find the perfect fit. Growing up in New Jersey in a family with generations of artists, he was encouraged to be creative since birth. Picking up both drums and piano as a child and studying music in college, he applies his classical knowledge of music and music theory to buzzing genre blending sounds as Nurko.

Growing up on the internet, Nurko experimented by producing music within the trending sub genres of the time, starting with Moombahton, moving to Dubstep, and eventually playing around with Trap, Melodic Trap, and Future Bass. Inspired by both the mature sounds of Amon Tobin and Flume, the pop approved melodies of Jack U, and the fandom inducing energy of Bassnectar, Nurko makes songs that make you remember where you were when you first heard them.

Wanting to create a sound he hadn’t heard yet, Nurko decided to channel his emotions into a style of electronic music uniquely him, starting with his first big track, “Goodbye,” in 2015. Since then, his next release “Your Embrace,” continued to give his fans what he likes to call, “the feels.” They loved it, enough to listen over 2 million times. “Your Embrace” was featured on YouTube channels like MrSuicideSheep, Chill Nation, and was included in ‘Neptones,” JC Caylon’s compilation that reached number one on the iTunes dance chart. His next track, “Let Me Go,” ft. Alina Renae set to be released January 2017 features his signature style of emotional chord progressions mixed with just hard enough drops, complimented with beautiful female vocals.

For Nurko, the melody is everything. Whether it’s in a low key trap track, or the perfect soundtrack to a your pre-game, do not mistake his music for another soon to be forgotten future bass track. Nurko makes music you can listen to on loop, discovering new layers with each play.
