KID FLICKS

Kid Flicks is the moniker of Athenian producer/songwriter Nickos Dervisis. His first album “Hearts of Gold”, released by greek label Inner Ear Records in 2011, is a collection of lo-fi exotic pop songs, relying heavily on sampling, folk instruments and sound textures.

On his sophomore release “By Typing ‘I Talk’, You Don’t Talk” (Inner Ear/V2 Records) released the following year, his song-writing becomes more melodic and upbeat and his multi-layered psychedelic pop universe is presented in a more concentrated album.

Kid Flicks has shared the stage with artists like Craft Spells and Slow Magic and has been reviewed by press media such as Impose, DIY, No Fear of Pop and Decoder.

From early 2013 Kid Flicks started performing live with a 4-piece band and soon after all members worked together for a new LP in 2015. The new album feels like a departure from Dervisis' previous lo-fi approach, focusing on pop melodies, dionysiac synths and samples, drums and percussion arrangements and middle eastern rhythms, influenced by the post-modern folkloric phantasmagoria of Sergei Parajanov’s films.
