Nick Holder has been notching up the very best in deep house productions since the early 90’s. Through early releases on seminal labels Hi-Bias and Strobe Records, Holder has developed his deep, deep sound through over 100 releases on his DNH label. Nick's recording work spans the house sounds through to disco loops, jazzy vibes, heavy dub riddims and the minimal Chicago style, and his work has found their way into the record boxes of such DJ luminaries as Deep Dish, Andrew Weatherall, Nick Warren, Junior Vasquez and DJ Sneak. His albums for NRK have spawned big underground singles such as ‘Summer Daze’, ‘No More Dating DJs’ and ‘Da Sambafrique’ and his constant DJ schedule has made him a favourite jock in the more discerning (and deeper) clubs. This new Hotmix from Holder features deep tribal rhythms, soulful house and jazzy elements and is the perfect audio accompaniment to a lazy Summer’s evening…..

Louis Osbourne has been spinning his own style of tech-house and techno for 11 odd years now. Coming from a musical background (his father knows a thing or two about entertaining the masses!), it was inevitable that he was to become an entertainer also of some description. DJing in his native Birmingham at clubs like House Of God, he befriended fellow Brum DJs Steve Lawler and Pete Gooding, which in turn led to stints at Pacha and Amnesia in Ibiza.
Louis currently DJs all around the world and has concentrated largely on stints in America and big festival appearances. His ay Hotmix for NRK encapsulates his current DJ style; plenty of telectro house bombs, renowned acts such as DJ Hell, Mike Monday and the wonderful Matthew Johnson, Louis’ set is full of funk but not for the faint hearted! Turn your speakers up loud and prepare to be Osbourned!

 Feb 2005 hotmix - NRK 100 Mix! 
|
The February hotmix is a rather special NRK100 mix, courtesy of label boss Nick Harris. Celebrating our 100th release this month, we've had some cracking 12"s released over the last few years. It was always going to be difficult to condese the best 100 releases into a 60 minute mix, so by no means is this a true reflection of the whole catalogue. It is, however, a romp through the styles and tunes that have made NRK, from Nick Holder's latin house classic 'Da Sambafrique', the smooth deep grooves from Miguel Migs, Farley & Heller's timeless remix of FK's 'Time & Space' right up to the recent NRK100 edits and remixes. Hope you enjoy the mix, and here's to another 100!

Nick is available for weddings, christenings, barmitzvas etc. etc.
