Nite Jewel is the alias of Los Angeles musician and multimedia artist Ramona Gonzalez, whose lo-fi, synth-based compositions drew inspiration from dance music -- primarily 1980s freestyle and electronic disco and early-'90s R&B -- filtered through the arty haziness of shoegaze and an experimental D.I.Y. approach to recording. She self-released a six-song CD-R titled My CD, which caught the ear of New York's taste-making Other Records. After the What Did He Say 12" in 2008, she issued the full-length Good Evening through Human Ear Music. ~ K. Ross Hoffman
