Nicolas Jaar Posts Mysterious “Sirens” Artwork Teasing New Music

Nicolas Jaar has posted a new image to his Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. It resembles an album cover and suggests that the producer could be readying a new project, possibly called Sirens, which is written four times on the image. The art also says “ya dijimos no pero el si esta en todo,” which roughly translates to “we already said no but the yes is in everything.”

Further fueling speculation is a second image posted on Jaar’s website. It features a triangle with the words Pomegranates, Nymphs, and Sirens (written six times); Pomegranates is the name of Jaar’s unofficial soundtrack to the film The Color of Pomegranates, and Nymphs is the name of his 2015 EP series. The site’s metadata includes “thetrilogy.jpg,” suggesting that Sirens is somehow related to the 2015 projects. The metadata also says, “<!– what were you expecting to find? –>.” See the Sirens image below.

Jaar’s excellent debut studio LP, Space Is Only Noise, arrived back in 2011. He’s released a number of EPs and remixes since then. In addition to the Pomegranates soundtrack he put out last year, he also provided the official score to the film Dheepan. In 2013, he released an album with Dave Harrington as Darkside. The two played their final Darkside show back in December 2014.
