Nick started showing more interest in music
than average at around the age of 10. Around
this time, a neighbor who was a DJ played
some tunes for Nick, mainly hardcore as
this was the hot sound in 1993. But Nick
decided that he preferred a less harsh sound
and started buying more and more CDs and
albums ranging from Eurodance to trance.
A couple of years later, Nick got in touch
with a friend who had some old audio equipment
in the attic, and they started experimenting
with it to make some mixes for the very
first time. They both loved it and decided
to buy some real tools for the trade. When
their first turntables arrived, they started
to build their collection of vinyl, which
eventually led to experimentation with music
production on the very old Trackers for
DOS.
Time flew by and Nick's tastes changed again,
as he became more interested in electro,
disco, and deep house tracks. While working
part-time to get some extra cash for vinyl,
he met someone at work who shared the same
interest in music production, and he taught
Nick the basics of music production. This
led to Nick getting his very first production
signed to Toes In The Sand Recordings, which
also signed him to do a remix of Brahma's
"Peaks of Destiny."
After a while, Nick hooked up with talented
progressive producer Eelke Kleijn to collaborate
on productions. The partnership has been
fruitful, with tracks signed at Navigate
Recordings, Arabica, Spinifex Recordings,
Tilth Music, and more. The future looks
bright for this talented young producer. |
