MORE is an exploration into deep, relaxing house - old school, new school,

Craig, Kerri Chandler and Roger Snachez. Nick has already played many dates
in the U.K., including Bath Hub Club, Glasgow Sub Club, Leeds Hard Times,
Wobble Birmingham and Space at Bar Rhumba, London. Nick's disco loops and
Chicago style has found its way into the record boxes of such luminaries as
Deep Dish, Nick Warren, Junior Vasquez and DJ Sneak.
The headz will love his single "Da Sambafrique", available now.
"I love this party..." Jaymz Nylon (NYC) [and we love him, too]
