Dedication, commitment, passion . Those elements have been following Nick since he started his journey into the world of electronic music about 15 years ago. 
	Throughout his residency at the iconic club Venue in his hometown Athens, it was Nick’s combination of professionalism & genuine passion to the underground house movement, which enabled him to make his mark as a warm up dj for some of the biggest names in dance music. Regardless he found himself sharing decks with his idols in a fairly young age, he managed to contain his enthusiasm and deliver the dance-floor ready for the main guest to take over. 
	The quality of his selection skills got the attention from some of the heavy weights of the scene like Nick Warren; who named Nick Varon "the most underrated DJ in the world”, in DjMag’s Top 100. But it was Hernán Cattaneo who was mostly captivated by his well compiled forward thinking sets. The South American legend initially invited Nick on his Greek Tours and long behold a partnership of music & talent - that still flourishes today - was created. Their collaboration has taken off with huge success in 3 continents (Europe / America / Asia). Up to now, the duo has accomplished 60 shows together, a number that barely represents the growing musical partnership but mostly a great friendship. 
	His international career keeps growing with shows from Bali to Amsterdam & from New York to Tokyo, while he has been also giving remarkable production signs. 
As a frequent now at the Sudbeat imprint and with an increasing amount of releases, builds an equally promising future on the production side as well. 
	Always loyal to the melodic - atmospheric elements - but with a continuous modernisation along with his ability to blend endless styles of underground house music has created his own signature sound. A unique style, which got him playing with two generations Legends; such as Sasha, John Digweed, Sven Vath, Dubfire, Solomun ... and thats truly a shortlist. 
	With shows in some of the most iconic venues around the world such as Crobar & Pacha in New York City, Mansion in Miami, legendary festivals such as Creamfields in Buenos Aires or the BPM and with a constant presence in Off Sonar events - in his current base in Barcelona - or in ADE, he continues to deliver well structured intriguing sets making his worldwide fan base wider and even more faithful.

Berlin-based, London born DJ & CONTR4ST Label owner, fka.m4a has become a stalwart of underground music with a heady blend of Italo, HI- NRG and House. With several Boiler Room appearances under his belt - clocking up over half a million streams combined - plus shows everywhere from Berghain / Panormar Bar, Timewarp, Tomorrowland to Awakenings, features in Mixmag and Electronic Beats, plus Peggy Gou in his corner as a mentor, his stock is firmly on the rise. 

Born in London, music was always front and centre in his family home, his mother playing music to him through headphones while he was still in the womb. Citing acts whose USP was female empowerment as the first music he found for himself, the likes of Spice Girls and Lil Kim were early musical influences, eventually leading him to start DJing on the queer scene in London. 

“I was working on the Soho & East London circuit” he says. “I was mainly doing guestlist and hosting but eventually they asked me to DJ and I spent a few years cutting my teeth on that scene.” 

Learning how to work a crowd as a pop DJ, seeing Honey Dijon DJ on his first trip to Berlin in 2016 led him down the rabbit hole of electronic music and led to a shift in his focus. 

“I completely fell in love with the storytelling element of her set,” he says. “I spent the next year immersed in dance music culture and started playing the electronic room at gay nights.” 

Moving to Berlin in 2019, the pandemic quickly put a stop to his burgeoning DJ career before a switch to recording streams from his apartment during covid saw his profile blow up, leading to signing with an agency and bagging his first Panorama Bar set when lockdown lifted. 

With Peggy Gou taking him under her wing and asking him to regularly open for her (“She’s helped me out so much and we have a really strong relationship,” he says. “She calls me her daughter and I call her my mother,” he laughs.), fka.m4a’s schedule got hectic with sets everywhere from Warehouse Project to Sonar and a focus on producing their own music. 

“It’s important for me to make music that works in the club,” he says. ‘But most importantly, it’s about making something that comes straight from the heart. I think I’ve achieved that on my first EP and I can’t wait for people to connect with it.” 

With an event series in the pipeline and a summer stacked with festival shows from Hï Ibiza to Terminal V, fka.m4a has firmly cemented himself as one of the leading artists in the underground space.

Stereo.type is the brainchild of George and Bry, originating from the UK and Ireland respectively, they now call Berlin home. The boys honed their trademark quirky groovy sound at their And.You party series in London whilst releasing their debut track Momento on Get Physical Music in 2013. As time passed and feelings changed, the duo decided to focus on their productions in the home of electronic music, Berlin. 
 
Since the move Stereo.type have found their home on Berlin's Get Physical Music with their debut EP Wasting Time featuring singer Felix Raphael dropping in winter 2018. Their work can also be found on other cutting-edge labels such as Katermukke's MUKKE, Einmusik's EIN2, LouLou Records and Just Her’s Constant Circles imprint. 
 
Their music productions have an indefinable uniqueness with universal appeal that's seen continued support from a wide variety of top international DJs including M.A.N.D.Y, Animal Trainer, Eelke Kleijn, Dirty Doering and Martin Eyerer.  
 
Stereo.type’s DJ sets are full of energy and groove, fueled by their innate ability to guide and make the crowd move. With recent sets at Kater Blau, Watergate, Golden Gate and Bier und Birgit they’ve certainly had the opportunity to demonstrate their skills at some of Berlin’s finest clubs.

"Caŷve's love for Techno did not start at all from a very young age. At the time it was all Progressive hard rock with psychedelic edges. His biggest influences came from the worlds of Pink Floyd, Led zeppelin, CCR, AC/DC, and the legendary Rammstein and Tool, all the way to flirting with 90s rap during the boom of the genre. He experimented a lot with guitars but always knew there was something missing. 
Ultimately one night in a dark warehouse out of Amsterdams NDSM area changed the name of the game! it was a dirty, sweaty hard hitting rave for pure ravers. Hooked on the beat he knew that he had found that missing piece and the rest was history ! His style explores the relation between darkness and light that which lies within every single one of us ! Progressive hard hitting beats and melodies that peak at the height of the track !"
