NICE GIRL — Call Me Nice Girl

Nice Girl – Call Me Nice Girl is the latest 12-inch offering from Public Possession (catalogue PP131). Arriving on 22 January 2027, the deep-house EP gathers two fresh productions alongside two of the producer’s most streamed tracks from 2026, finally giving them a vinyl home. The selection showcases the rhythmic elegance that has defined Ruby’s output this year, making the record a concise statement of her club-oriented aesthetic. Within Public Possession’s 2026/2027 window, Call Me Nice Girl follows a series of releases that include Huge Jackman’s “Huge Tracks, Man …” (PP129) and Eden Burns’ “Your Gonna Lose Vol 1” (PP126). Both of those records arrived earlier in the label’s schedule, positioning Nice Girl’s EP as a continuation of the label’s focus on deep, dancefloor-ready cuts. The release also sits alongside Baba Stiltz’s “Totally LP” (PP124) and ddwy’s “Tell Me, Told You” (PP127), reinforcing the label’s commitment to melodic yet driving house music. Side A opens with “Yes”, a four-minute track that balances a steady pulse with a warm, inviting groove, setting a mood that feels instantly ready for a warm-up set. Its companion, “Hot Water”, extends the momentum with a slightly longer arrangement, offering a subtle shift in texture that keeps the energy flowing without breaking the deep-house vibe established by the opener. Flipping to side B, “Express” stretches over five minutes, providing a more expansive canvas for DJs to weave into a peak-time slot. Its structure allows for a gradual build that can be layered with percussive elements or used as a bridge between deeper moments and higher energy peaks. The record closes with “My Life”, a concise four-minute piece that returns to the intimate feel of the A-side, delivering a melodic closure that works well as a set-ending or a cool-down track. For Nice Girl, Call Me Nice Girl arrives after the 12-inch “UPP LP” (PP094, 2023) and “Look At That Thing” (PP081, 2022), both also released on Public Possession. Those earlier outings established her signature blend of smooth basslines and subtle melodic hooks, a formula that is refined here with the addition of two brand-new compositions. The EP therefore acts as both a snapshot of her recent digital successes and a forward-looking glimpse at her evolving production style. In the current underground scene, the EP’s focus on deep-house grooves aligns with a resurgence of vinyl-centric DJ sets that favour texture and length over quick, radio-friendly edits. The four tracks, each exceeding four minutes, give DJs ample room for mixing and manipulation, while the consistent tonal palette ensures the record can be played straight through for a cohesive set segment. From a collector’s perspective, the record offers the rare opportunity to own on vinyl the two 2026 hits that were previously digital-only, alongside fresh material that expands Nice Girl’s catalogue. Its straightforward 12-inch format makes it a practical addition to any deep-house crate, and the sequencing – two new tracks followed by two established favorites – provides a balanced listening experience that works equally well at home and behind the decks. The release is pressed as a standard 12-inch vinyl, matching the format of Nice Girl’s earlier Public Possession outings. Its clean, unadorned presentation reflects the label’s aesthetic focus on the music itself rather than on extraneous packaging.
