News added 21st January 2007 One+One sees two of today’s very exciting, talented and revered artists join forces as they attempt to create a piece of dance music history. The concept will encompass a world tour and an album released on Ministry of Sound. James Zabiela and Nic Fanciulli first struck up a friendship during gigs in Asia in 2005. Their mutual understanding of each other’s music coupled with the fact they had fun and got into all sorts of mischief together made them inseparable. Throughout 2006 the pair experimented playing back2back, including New Year’s Day in Nic’s hometown of Maidstone, the sunnier climes of Miami’s WMC at Cafeteria and We Love… Space, Ibiza. All received rave reviews (no pun intended) and it was proof indeed JZ and Nic needed to take this idea further – and so ‘One+One’ is born. The concept will encompass a world tour, starting at Miami’s WMC 2007 with a One+One launch party; the USA leg will see the pair touring like rock stars as they get aboard a tour bus and gig their way around the country covering the length and breadth of America with up to five gigs a week. Following this is a month touring the UK’s hotspots, a month in Asia and Australia trailed by a full 3 months in Europe centered around Ibiza’s summer season. James and Nic will play back2back together on every show. It’ll be a multiple CD deck and laptop extravaganza of layering music, bending sounds and twisting beats to one mind-blowing effect. With gig offer’s pouring in from every country on planet Earth and nine festivals already confirmed expect more to follow in early 2007! In addition to this the duo has struck a deal with Ministry of Sound Recordings for a unique One+One album. A studio mix that will be representative of the shows, it will include several bespoke productions by James and Nic including a collaboration between the two, personal re-edits and all the usual effects and daring mixing people have grown to love them for. A spring release, the album will coincide with the tour. James comments: Even though Nic and I are relatively young DJs compared to most we've been touring heavily on our own for a few years now. So when we did a quick tour of Australia and Asia last year we decided that it's much more fun to go with someone else! I always wanted more hands in the DJ Booth and now I have them, we'll be using the Q2 Dual DJ which will allow us to independently cue things as well as play with FX units, Laptops and CDJs of course. Nic adds: We both started off with the same musical background and as time went on we developed our own styles. When we put them together it works well and we seem to compliment each other musically. Normally when making an album I panic about getting things done but this has been a totally different process. I've really enjoyed it; James and I bounce off each other and help one another out if the other is struggling. I’m so looking forward to getting this tour on the road.
