A true force to be reckoned with as a DJ and producer, Nicole Moudaber rise through the ranks of the DJ elite has been swift, purposeful and striking.
Propelled by her flawlessly executed, sleazy, edgy house and tough, soulful techno sound, she picked up no less than Carl Cox and Steve Lawler as early fans.
Carl snapped up her early tracks for INTEC and Steve featured her music on VIVa & iVAV.
Since then she supplied killer tracks for labels like 8Sided
Dice, Kling Klong, Monique Musique and Waveform Recordings, while
remixing names including Santos, Martin Eyer, Mauro Picotto and Fergie.
Pretty much a perfect start to an artist career that began relatively recently.
Hitting New York after a youth spent in Africa and the Middle East,
Nicole initially explored her passion for electronic music as a
promoter, bringing the NYC style parties she loved to Beirut for the first time, then booking huge acts for her Soundworx nights at London's legendary Turnmills club and running Southeast Recordings.
But it was the decision to dive in and start to DJ and make music
herself that was proven the most important.
Once she unleashed her
creativity, everything simply went boom.
Carl Cox identified her as exactly the kind of fresh talent he wanted
to playing at his weekly nights at Space in Ibiza, where Nicole has
since DJed regularly alongside him for the last 3 seasons.
Requests for guest mixes on both Carl and John Digweed's internationally syndicated radio shows followed, as did the endorsement of Pete Tong, who named Nicole a rising star on BBC Radio 1's Essential Selection.
Her tracks picked up the support of yet more DJ royalty like Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, Loco Dice and Danny Tenaglia,
who was so impressed when he DJed with Nicole that the two of them have
been working together both in the studio and on throwing an incredible
outdoor party at Ushuaia in Ibiza.
With further residencies in Ibiza – the place she now calls home - and Cologne, plus recent high profile gigs at Ministry of Sound and the
SW4 festival in London plus the Dance.Here.Now Festival in New York, her
reputation for groovy main room mastery has really taken hold.
Meanwhile plans for a launching a label of her own, plus a mix and
tour for the hugely influential Global Underground series are all under
way.
A Weblog devoted to the mashest fascist of them all. Hailing from the punch drunk streets of Karachi, DJ Sadiq Gill has gone on to spin the the web of his musical gyroscope into a truly Unique and always pleasing performance. He plays all the hots ones including: Egg London, Electric Brixton and Fabric to name a few. Free your mind and yo ass will follow
