BIO
"Serbian DJane who redefined progressive house." - Cacao Beach Club Management (2010)

Behind N-tchbl stands Marija Nikolić, born and raised in southeastern Serbia. War and politics colored atmosphere of '90s in her country almost naturally led her to growing fond of moody sounds of Pink Floyd, Joy Division, Radiohead, Depeche Mode, Nirvana, The Cure... music that has left a deep scar in her refined and unique musical taste that shows no less of its presence even in her today's sound.

At the beginning of 00's names like Deep Dish, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Nick Warren, Sasha, Dave Seaman and other prolific artists of that time led her to a crucial cognition - progressive house with a distinct bass line and sublime emotion, knitted with melodies colouring the background was the sound that suits her the most. Progressive house was something she wanted to live and love.

In 2008th the diversity and uniqueness of music she compiled in her sets became recognized by one of the leading booking agencies from Belgrade. Soon every Serbian major club wanted to book her as an uprising DJ star, that led to her numerous appearances in major Serbian venues in the next couple of years. One good thing led to another and easily she became the first Serbian female progressive house DJ to gain international attention, receiving booking inquiries from all around the globe: Bulgaria's Cacao Beach festival, Sofia's Escape club (listed in Top 10 clubs of DJ Mag), Egypt, Lebanon, Ministry of sound of India, Canada's Stereo Montreal, to name just a few. Playing as a headliner and support act of many famous DJs in highly respected venues and festivals in Serbia and across the region made her unique music style admired by many fans from around the globe. Her sets were broadcasted on all of the major worldwide radio stations, and after a dozen of guest mixes on her all-time-favourite friskyRadio, including respectful “Artist Of The Week” show, her last dream came true – in March 2011th she became a part of friskyRadio roster!

Her monthly show "Subliminal" gained support from many iconic progressive house artists: Moshic, Kintar, Kliment, Oliver Morgenroth, Matteo Monero, CJ Art and many other doing guestmix appearances on her show. "Subliminal" on friskyRadio brought her the opportunity to present the whole new side of deep, dark, sublime side of progressive house. Every month on 3rd Mondays she delivers fresh stories by compiling distinct, peculiar melodies with both emotional and wicked, rock solid tunes, doing it all the female way. As a sign of uniqueness, she often brings traditional and oriental sounds, vocals and instruments into her sets to stay in touch with her roots, something that easily stands out from the rest of the DJs so you know It's N-tchbl when you bump into her sets, and no one else does it this way. Exactly that kind of sound made her famous among underground progressive crowds around the globe and years after, she's still resisting to fall under the influence of new musical trends, devoted to not let that unique sound of progressive house ever be forgotten.

After almost a decade of break, she's back to live appearances in her country, warmed up and closed the parties with legends like Sebastien Leger, Sebastien Busto and uprising superstar DJ Ruby and soon she might hit your neighborhood too so keep in touch with her schedule.
