RIP Nikki Sudden (Swell Maps)

Sad news to report. Nikki Sudden (formerly of the Swell Maps) passed away this weekend, just after having done a show here in Gotham (which I sadly missed). As part of a tribute to him, there's this Swell Maps article at Perfect Sound Forever. I'll also post a note that he sent me about two years ago where he was thanking all the fans for remembering him and his work.
