 Nick Warren is a household name on account of his internationally renowned DJ career which has taken him to the best clubs worldwide, and has even scored him a residency @ superclub Cream (UK). Nick moved to Bristol in the early nineteen eighties at age 21 and began dj'ing to art students at his own club (called the Wiggle) As the dance scene exploded into nightclubs around 1990, Vision opened in Bristol and attracted guests such as Carl Cox, Frankie Bones, and The Shamen. Nick was playing upstairs where he mixed The Carpenters and Frank Sinatra over breakbeats, played house records at the wrong speed and introduced hip hop and dub. With the downtempo scene breaking in Bristol via a night called 98 Proof, Nick and a few fellow collaborators recorded a track under the name 0272 for a Bristol charity compilation album alongside contributions from Smith and Mighty, Tricky, and Massive Attack, whom he accompanied on their first US tour as official DJ. He began working with Cream following a successful stint at Liverpool's G-Love night and his dj'ing career rapidly developed. In order to offer a taste of Nick Warren's DJ set to the masses, Cluboxed unleashed three Global Underground compilations (Prague, Brazil, & Budapest) representing Nick's set in each respective locale. A fourth one is on the way early next year, and the setting will be Reykjavik, Iceland. In addition, Nick Warren jumpstarted the DMC Back to Mine compilation, with his very own collection of downtempo tripped out ambience. This set most closely resembles the sound of Nick's legendary sets @ Club Vision.  Comments[0]
