Big Nick D

It was in deepest darkest Somerset, south west England, sometime in the early 90's when Big Nick D first encountered dance music. Ten foot high speaker stacks, muddy fields and purple ohms. Groove, bass and positivity. A good time being had by all. Nick had to get involved. Fast forward more than twenty years and these positive things remain the cornerstones of Nick's DJ sets.
Since the heady days of Somerset, Nick has worked among many aspects of dance music, from independent record shops & Virgin Megastores to nightclubs including fabric and The End. A stint at a vinyl distribution company while running his own record label opened Nick's eyes not only to the business end of the music spectrum, but new genres, techniques and people. From low key minimal grooves to tight techy house, via wonky techno and future disco, Nick's scope can be far and wide. He's had guest slots on radio stations including Ministry of Sound Radio, Hoxton FM, Brap FM & more.
Nick currently hosts the monthly Bank Of Switches Show on Aaja Music & the My Wife Likes Lazer Beamz show on Better Days FM. On top of that Nick has recently had mixes published by Communique, Somersault & Holland's Stookcast. Nick currently holds a residency at Bank Of Switches and is a regular guest at parties such as Minimal Force, Audio Rehab and Route One, so he can be found playing tunes at venues like Shelter, Cafe 1001, Werkhaus, Last Days Of Shoreditch, The Jago, Near & Far Bar, The Souls & Aaja Deptford.
