Irish electronic/dance/new wave duo Nixer (made up of Seán Keenan and Gearóid Peggs) have returned with their brand new single “Pleasure“, and its accompanying music video.
The song is out now via Blowtorch Records, and is their first new material since last year’s debut EP ‘People Feel‘ (included in our Best EPs of 2022 list). Buy it here.

Nixer is: Seán Keenan (vocals/guitar) and Gearóid Peggs (beats, production). They write, record and produce remotely in their DIY bedroom studios in London and Dublin, respectively. The enticing sound of Nixer–built on elements of electronic dance and new wave influences–is in part the result of two contrasting musical backgrounds fusing together to spark a sound so distinct that their fans actually coined the term Éire Wave to describe it.
Peggs comes from an electronic production background and the sound of artists such as Boy Harsher and Boys Noize, bringing those infectious electronic dance shuffles, synths and 808’s to the Nixer sound. On the other side of the coin, Keenan draws influence from the sonic worlds of artists like Alex G, King Krule, Fontaines D.C. and The Stone Roses, pairing his melodic guitarlines and distinctive vocals with Peggs’ slick production skills to create this utterly gripping brand of alternative dance music.
