Saccades, the solo project of Nicholas Wood — one half of the acclaimed electronic duo The KVB — returns with the new album Golden Days, released on 2nd October 2026.
Influenced by music from across the globe, Golden Days draws particular inspiration from crate-digging discoveries: obscure psychedelic music and rare soul records from the 1960s and ’70s. The album also takes cues from contemporary artists including Air, Khruangbin, Darkside and Jack J.
A strong sense of hauntology runs throughout the record, particularly in its atmospheric effects, hypnotic loops and woozy production. These elements also nod towards Wood’s early solo project Die Jungen, while the album’s deliberately hazy character creates the feeling of a half-forgotten dream.
Lyrically, Golden Days is romantic and introspective, leaning into the outsider perspective that has remained a constant across all of Wood’s musical projects. It is the most laid-back Saccades record to date, placing deep bass grooves at the forefront while making greater use of shimmering acoustic guitars than previous releases.
“Golden Days was influenced by music from across the globe, but particularly by digging through obscure psych and rare soul records from the ’60s and ’70s,” explains Wood. “There is a big hauntological feeling to the album, especially in the use of effects and loops, which is also a nod back to my early solo project Die Jungen. The production has a more deliberately hazy feel this time, giving it the atmosphere of a half-forgotten dream.”
Wood introduced Saccades in 2017 with a self-titled debut album, departing from the dark, driving soundscapes of The KVB to embrace stripped-back psychedelic melodies, bedroom-pop intimacy and vintage-inspired songwriting.
The project’s follow-up, Flowing Fades, arrived in April 2021 and was accompanied by a UK tour. On the album, Wood expanded the Saccades palette by incorporating elements of yacht rock and vintage synthesizers while maintaining the project’s relaxed, carefree character.
Saccades returned in 2023 with Land of the Hearth, a more electronic and Balearic-leaning record that retained the blissed-out qualities for which the project had become known. The album wove together sun-soaked atmospheres with subtle undercurrents of tension.
In 2025, Wood unveiled a series of Saccades singles, including “Sightseer” and “Greek Fire”, exploring a more lo-fi pop direction with pronounced hauntological influences. Blending woozy, nostalgic production with an ethereal and introspective core, these tracks laid the foundations for the immersive world of Golden Days.
