DJ NIKKI has been a musician all her life. A classically trained cellist attending music school from the age of 8, NIKKI has far flung influences from Prince to Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Al Green to Public Enemy.
NIKKI made her name as the 'Premier female hip- hop DJ in the world' with a list of credits few could match, which reads like a who's who of the music world, Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, Kelis, Diddy, Kanye West, Beenieman, NERD, Mariah Carey and Jay Z, as well as many corporate and fashion events.
Hard work, determination and immense talent have placed NIKKI at the top of the her profession. A talented turntablist as well as a top party DJ, NIKKI strives to be the best and is never afraid to take risks- this has led to her unique style of DJing where she mixes up rock, hip- hop, electro and reggae alongside her own tracks. In the past year DJ NIKKI has played at star studded events in Monaco, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Egypt, across the UK and is the No.1 DJ choice of major brands Rocawear, Puma, Tiger Beer, Akademics and Sergio Techinni to spin at their events.
Her eclectic musical style, technicality, mixing and sratching leads to jobs as diverse as music programming for 'The Blackberry Women in Technology Awards' to DJing for Alicia Keys.
It is very simple. If you want the best...it is DJ NIKKI.
BEATNIK PRODUCTION
DJ NIKKI is a member of band 'BEATNIK' a crazy mix of writing and producing tracks alongside producer and artist 'Statis'. Nikki and Statis are both internationally renowned DJ's in their own right. They have worked together writing, producing & appearing on tracks for fashion shows, corporate awards and television and have produced remixes for commercial release. They have now focused their energies on their own groundbreaking sound.
The combined styles of the duo fuse to make what could only be described as a British Urban White Stripes. The overall sound is a fusion of Hip-hop and Breakbeat drum tracks mixed with rock style riffs and electro sounds. Add to this vocals ranging from punk influenced raps to soulful R&B hooks and the final mix is a combination of wonderful originality that fuses to become a combination of like Johnny Lydon and Slick Rick's understandably perverted lovechild.
