From Nigeria via Lebanon, New York and Ibiza, DJ and producer Nicole Moudaber is the rising star who’s been at the heart of the dance scene since electronic beats took over the globe in the early ‘90’s. She’s made her way to the decks and into the studio after years spent getting swept away to the music of the world’s biggest DJ names in some of the best clubs in New York, bringing rave to Beirut with her Trashy Renaissance parties, booking huge names for the Soundworx nights at London’s legendary Turnmills and running Southeast Recordings. Nicole’s decision to move onto producing and spinning the driving, sexy beats she loves has surprised and thrilled her heavyweight industry colleagues, Carl Cox snapped up her productions for his Intec label as well as Steve Lawler for his VIVa label and a ‘proud’ hero Danny Tenaglia was so impressed after DJ’ing alongside her he declared “One day, I hope to open for you”.

Nicole Moudaber presents the first episode of her new World Beats podcast series. While distinctly dark and driving, her sets blend deep techno with groovier rhythms perfect for main room dance floor action.

The Hamburg-based, Bosnian-born Croatian Solomun has played a major role in redefining European house music in recent years via productions, remixes and DJing which take the very building blocks of house and deftly reconstruct them with a decidedly modern twist.

This contribution to house is partly drawn from a hefty touring schedule gracing the worlds finest clubs alongside an impeccable string of tracks and remixes for the likes of Buzzin Fly, Freerange, Get Physical, Phil E, Mobilee, Dessous, Compost, Four:Twenty and his own Diynamic imprint but it doesn't stop there.
Having started Diynamic just five years ago alongside long-term friend Adriano Trolio, Solomun has set about developing and nurturing his outlets for music as the music itself. Now, Diynamic enjoys the sort of reverence usually reserved for labels three times its age and has been instrumental in allowing some of the new talents in electronic music to shine. Stimming, HOSH, Ost and Kjex, David August, Uner and Solomun himself are just a handful of the artists who have benefitted from their output being wrapped in the label’s distinctive sleeves and the Diynamic appeal shows no sign of waning.

In the world of drum & bass, a scene all too often segregated by superficially constructed genre confines, Zero T stands as a figurehead for a new breed of producers tearing down these boundaries and building from the ground up, creating a more open musical plane. By setting his own parameters, Zero T not only explores the full spectrum of sounds within D&B, but expands beyond it with his forward-thinking, intricately textured and overtly musical sound. It comes as little wonder that Zero T's absorbed such a plethora of wide-spanning influences that diffuse through his own music, amalgamating to create something unique and, in a word, peerless.

This excellent promo mix from Zero T supports the release of his brand new FABRICLIVE 52: compilation CD
