“NYIKO is a creative powerhouse” - Galore
“Glittering synth passages, pounding percussion, and glamorous pop hooks all mix together with NYIKO’s decadent croon, evoking the best of both ‘80s synth pop and modern indie.” - Under The Radar
"A dazzling debut… NYIKO paints the liminal space between before and after in vivid color. Love is creation, even amid isolation."
— Atwood Magazine (review of Honesty LP)
