Though it didn't go to plan on the day for a number of reasons - tracks not being recognised - headphone jack socket loose - the sun in all its glory shinning for my set, reflecting off the screen - really didn’t help either 😂 
It was certainly a day of new experiences, learning and ploughing through regardless 🙂 I had fun! 

I had an epic day with everyone and having another opportunity to play for Insomniacz again ❤️

F-35 (Preview)

Nick Van Kukaj was born and raised in Albania, a small country nestled in the Balkans. Growing up, Nick was always fascinated by the sounds of music and found himself drawn to the rhythm of the drums. He would often bang on barrels and pots, creating beats that would make his friends and family dance along.

As Nick grew older, he realized that his passion for music was more than just a passing interest. He wanted to pursue a career in the music industry and explore all the possibilities that it had to offer. However, opportunities for musical growth were limited in Albania, and Nick knew that if he wanted to achieve his dreams, he would have to move elsewhere.

In the late 90s, Nick made the life-changing decision to leave his home country and move to the United Kingdom. It was a difficult transition, as he had to leave behind everything he knew and start anew in a foreign land. However, Nick was determined to succeed, and he knew that the UK offered him the best chance to make a name for himself in the music industry.

Nick quickly immersed himself in the UK's electronic music scene, attending raves and soaking up the sounds of Hard House and Hard Trance. He was fascinated by the energy and excitement of the scene, and he knew that this was where he belonged.

In 2002, Nick took the first step in his music production journey by purchasing a pair of belt drive decks. He spent hours practicing, honing his skills and perfecting his craft. As his passion for music production grew, he invested in a variety of synthesizers and drum sets, building a massive studio setup that allowed him to create the sounds that he had always dreamed of.

Today, Nick is a respected producer in the UK's electronic music scene, and his unique sound has won him a dedicated fanbase. His studio is filled with his favorite synthesizers and drum sets, and he spends his days creating new beats and experimenting with sounds. Despite his success, Nick remains humble and grateful for the opportunities that the UK has given him, and he looks forward to continuing his journey in music for many years to come.
