*Nickodemus*
Nickodemus has been globetrotting with the universal dance sounds since the late 90's. He began his DJ career in NYC as a resident DJ of the legendary Giant Step & Organic Groove nights in NYC back in 1996. DJ'ing spontaneously with live musicians became his specialty. He later started Turntables on the Hudson with partners Mariano & Nappy G on percussion in 1998. The party was the 1st outdoor dance party in NYC & quickly gained fame for it's eclectic open minded music & crowd. Guest musicians would turn up every week & rock live with the DJ's. Over the past 14 years, the list of guests who jumped on stage to perform is enormous! The party is still rocking every 1st Friday @ CIELO in NYC & select Brooklyn locations as well as with friends & family from around the World (Turntables on the Thames, the Danube, the Sydney Harbor, the NILE etc...)
As a producer, Nickodemus produces music from all parts of the World, but all rooted in Club Music from his upbringings in NYC. His highlights include the songs "Cleopatra in New York" & "Mariposa" featuring Carol C (Si Se), "Mi Swing es Tropical" by Nickodemus & Quantic feat Tempo, "Sun Children" featuring The Real Live Show & "Free Souls" as well as remixes for Nina Simone, Billy Holiday, Mr Scruff feat Alice Russell, Thievery Corporation, Astor Piazzolla, Miguel Migs, Quantic & many more.
His 3rd album, "Moon People"came out June 19th, 2012. He's also working on "A Global Minute" which features MC's from 10 cities combined with video & paintings by Justin Carty (to be released in 2013)

*Solovox*
A producer, composer, and one-man synthesizer attack squad, Solovox is the sound of Earl Carlton Tietze III. He starts with his own originalmusic which spans the genres of house, glitch-hop, breaks, electro, cosmic funk, ambient, and downtempo acid jazz. He also remixes other artists' tracks and throws those in for good measure. Then, in the live environment, he performs with live synth, organ, and piano playing that is like Herbie Hancock smashing head-on into the Chemical Brothers. Mayhem usually ensues, and he consistently delivers one of the finest live electronic shows available anywhere.
He has recently remixed Vokab Company's single 'Shine' featuring Souleye, as well as 'Gunslinger' for their new album 'Quit Sleep.' He is also doing remix work for Hulk Hogan and numerouscommercial clients. His music has been heard on Burn Notice as well as A&E's Biography. As a live performer his legend in Portland, Oregon and the Northwest continues to grow. In July of 2009 he became the first-ever all-electronic act in the history of The Oregon Country Fair for their 40th Anniversary. He also headlined San Diego's Elysium Festival, Mexico's Fuente Eterno festival, Nexus in Los Angeles, and almost killed 2,000 revelers on top of the Hawthorne Bridge in 2010, causing the bridge to sway 2 feet up and down.
Whether improvising heavily with a downtempo acid jazz set or layingdown dance tracks at a club, Solovox is not a DJ...he is one of the most exciting electronic performers to be found anywhere.
