Niklas Nadidai
Pianist and musical director working in hip hop, neo soul, and indie pop.
When Niklas isn’t busy laying down moody keyboard parts under beats from German hip-hop artists like Horst Wegener/Jesué, Lord Folter, and Samy Deluxe, you might catch him on tour with indie pop acts like Pablo Brooks, Mayberg, or SCHRAMM.
For The Ellis Court’s What More EP, Niklas joined producer Lukas Kurz and myself at Birk Buttchereyt’s studio in Berlin’s Funkhaus to record piano. The highlight of those two days was definitely recording “Let it Fall” as a live take, with Niklas on the upright piano and me getting to sing the vocals right beside him as he played.
Niklas will often post beautiful little keyboard impromptus for followers of his Instagram, and his artist playlist on Spotify is also a great listen, so go check them out!
