Nangs

About Nangs

“Nangs” is a wobbly, disorienting track named after the Australian slang term for canisters filled with nitrous oxide (N2O), a compound gas used in cars to boost speed and transmission, or laughing gas. Nangs are occasionally used as a recreational drug; in the United States, they are known as whippets. The song’s introduction sounds like a balloon filled with N2O being inhaled, which is the method used to get the gas into your system. The track does a good job of emulating the woozy, undulating feeling of being high on N2O. .
