CHRIS RICH & DARREN NIMBLE
 
Chris Rich and Darren Nimble; two names that have risen from seemingly nowhere at an incredible rate in just one year. The dynamic duo are now very much on radar of every House lover in London. But the most exciting thing is it does not look like slowing at all, the rise continues.
 
Both learning their trade seperately years ago these two childhood friends joined forces through the mutual love of House music and an ambition and determination to be the very top DJ's. Having both had stints on Touch FM and Housewave it was Darren Nimble's belief in his ability and frustration at his bookings which was his drive to better his position that was a catalyst for establishing his own night C.A.N.D.E.Y Floss.
 
Chris Rich having earned his stripes in the tough west end bars and clubs, was now keen to pursue his own sound and identity as a DJ and performer. Having got booked to specialize in House music at C.A.N.D.E.Y Floss, It wasn't long before he and Darren shared common goals and most importantly music choice. The collaboration was made.
 
A joint 2 hour Radio show on Housewave allowed the two too fine tune their sounds and synchronicity. In a short space of time they got residencies at Egg Nightclub and Warehouse. Played at large events at Hidden, Blag Club, RS Lounge and more.
 
With further booking and promotions down the line, their future holds even more promise. With C.A.N.D.E.Y Floss still going strong in their area of west london and even larger scaled events on the horizon due at venues such as Colosseum, Scala, XOYO, the sky really is the limit.
 
What they bring to the table is high energetic sets designed to exceed each others song choice. Their mix of DJing and showmanship has all party goers on edge with anticipation and suprise. Their passion for the music and their love for a party connects with a live audiences every where they go.This is whats sets them apart, this is why they love what they do, to create that moment, too standout and experience it with everyone in the room.

The journey began when Alex was 16 years old, growing up in North London he became engrossed with the UK Garage (UKG) scene that was very popular at the time. Inspired by the great UKG DJ's/Producers such as DJ EZ, Todd Edwards, MJ Cole, Grant Nelson and many more Alex was regularly attending the events at local clubs and bars as a raver. A brief encounter and some sound advice from DJ EZ after a set at his local nightclub would change Alex's life, "You could do what I do you just have to practice, practice, practice!" After years of practicing and hard graft his musical knowledge and tastes changed after visiting the magical island of Ibiza. House music became his new love and this was where he wanted to make his mark.
 
Alex Madden has traveled the world since then performing in Europe, Australia and the US. Playing to hundreds of adoring fans at some of the most prestigious nightclubs and venues across the globe is what Alex lives for but 2016 proved to be a great year for his own productions. We saw him release remixes on Armada as well as his first two solo singles. Alex’s debut track ‘Need You Back’ received support all over the world including on Danny Howard’s BBC Radio 1 show. Alex’s second release ‘In The Night’ received the same feedback and also appeared in Armada’s Top 100 Playlist on Spotify.
 
In 2017 we are going to see a lot more from the man himself as he has been working very hard in the studio fine tuning his signature sound. Expect to hear some thumping grooves this year as he catapults his sound into the limelight that it so deserves. Do not take your eye off of this future star.
