Nightmares on Wax main man, George Evelyn says “Back To Nature” is a reminder of our relationship to nature, something amazing that we are all a part of. In the modern world it’s become easy to forget that, to have the idea that nature is something that happens in the background to the human race. When in reality, we are an inherent part of it.” As the title alludes, this is George stripping away the layers to reveal the very essence of what makes him such an influential artist. It is the product of experiencing the ceremonial practices of Peyote and visiting the Yucatan jungle, creating a concept that would become the heart driven dialogue of shaman Kuauthli Vasquez, the ambiance of the jungle and the classical beat driven sound that is Nightmares on Wax.
