Nico Junkert

my name is nico, i'm producer, performer, dj and founder of the project - Niju - & a member of - WIDE AWAKE - niju – that's what the prehistoric cave peoples of the orient called the mystical waterfall where they came together at the source to dream themselves into the eternal hunting grounds to the hypnotic sounds of the skin drum and the rattle of the shaman every seventh night. That's not the truth. niju simply quickens the imagination. Whileordinary club sets often feel like a bumpy obstacle course through your ear canal, niju will take you to a musical high-wire garden. You float and prance through the thicket towards the mystical waterfall of versatile creativity. A mix of impulsive deep-house, tech-house variations and downtempo influences may describe his sound. His perfomances always match to time, place and audience. Nijus productions are the expression of his love in music and his love in details. His dedication for the art itsself without having any expectations makes niju an extraordinary artist. This year he has coined – as a resident – the electro division of the emerging culture collective called peer23, who have created a comfortable home for themselves on the Friesenheimer Island in Mannheim. Colorful influences, fresh tracks, sets and new collaborations – the coming period promises finest future music.
