Nitai Hershkovits - Lemon the Moon (2021 enja & yellobird records)

Lemon The Moon features Nitai's long-time collaborators -- drummer Amir Bresler, who played in Avishai Cohen's trio, along with Nitai, and bassist Or Bareket. Like in his previous albums, Nitai teams with Rejoicer (Yuvi Havkin) to produce this ten- track braid of music; an abundance of musical terrains ranging from the cinematic Invite Me, Dance through the exploratory Bridge Under Water and marbling Ethio-Jazz Bonfire Wiggle to the mischievous Goat, the listener finds proof of true teamwork.

Nitai Hershkovits - I Asked You A Question (2016)

"Keyboards were always part of my musical entity. I’m lucky to have Rejoicer as a producer. Besides being there for me and open minded to any concept, he has the ability to stretch ideas without taking away from the artistic and musical direction. 

That kind of a workflow was different from other recording sessions I had. On this album we made beats, combining acoustic and electronic elements; editing, sampling and the result is an empirical but genuine attempt to get the right balance between the two. 

Hope you enjoy this milestone as much as we enjoyed creating it." 

Nitai Hershkovits 

"I feel like i dreamt about this music when i was a child. Some of the colors and energies Nitai and I created here are familiar to me in a weird nostalgic way. 

There are so many different inputs on our musicality that we kept asking each other - "what is your inspiration?" without getting any answer. 

I learned a lot from Nitai and his wide, unique and far-out approach to music - thank you !" Rejoicer (The Dove)
