Nic Fanciulli is a DJ, producer and label owner who has remained one of the UK’s finest exports in electronic music throughout the last decade. A Grammy nominated producer, Nic has worked with artists as diverse as Underworld, Kylie Minogue, U.N.K.L.E, Loco Dice, Josh Wink and Tracey Thorn in addition to producing a plethora of solo club focused tracks that have achieved both critical and commercial acclaim. Now releasing on the likes of Rejected and Souvenir, Nic is responsible for a high output of a sleek, intelligent yet driving strain of house and techno.

CGNY: Nic – thanks for taking the time to chat with us. You’ve a Saved event scheduled May 14 with Stacey Pullen in NYC that we’re looking forward to! What is it about NYC that makes playing here special for you?

NF: We always love coming to NYC as the vibe is pretty similar to the ones we have in London. This party is gonna be really special as we also have Stacey Pullen playing so there will probably be some back 2 back action.

CGNY: Is there anything you want to do in the city, aside from playing the gig? Any tourism planned?

NF: I’ve never spent a lot of time there as I normally have a show the night before and after. This time I’m gonna spend a few days there and just do the tourist thing (open top bus, the lot : )

CGNY:  You’re list of collaborations over the year is fairly impressive! Is there anyone artist that stands out for you or anyone yet that you would love to work with – maybe someone we wouldn’t expect from you?

NF: I've been really lucky to work with so many amazing artists; the best thing is that you get to learn the way they work. I have some interesting collabs coming up with Rolando, Joris Voorn, Tiefschwarz & we are also talking to Cassius.

 
CGNY: What music did you listen to growing up and where did your interest in EDM first begin? What do you listen to when you aren’t listening to dance music? Any artists you’d like to recommend?

NF: When I was younger I started off listening to a lot of British bands like Oasis, Happy Mondays & The Stone Roses that then developed into listening to Bands like Daft Punk Chemical Brothers and Laurent Garnier. I would say Laurent is one of the DJ’s that inspired me to become a dj along with Lee Burridge. Artists that you should check out are Jordan Peak, Andrea Oliva, Philip Bader & Mark Fanciulli


CGNY: Do you remember your first DJ gig? What was it like to play live for an audience for the first time?

NF: It was in my home town of Maidstone. I remember I had no concept of how to work the crowd, and all I did was play the biggest records I had. But I learned from it and worked out how to structure a night.


CGNY: Three records that are set to be big summer tracks?

NF: Oliver $ - Do your thang - Play it Down

Andrea Olive - Low Profile - Saved

Steve Mac - Roots (ALbum)- Saved


Nic plays District 36 with Stacey Pullen this Saturday May 14th

Shaped Noise - Different Selves
The debut album from Shapednoise has surfaced from the creative depths, a brutal aural assault, perfect for your despicable sensibilities. “Different Selves” falls on the grimier side of industrial noise, akin to some Northern Structures, Ancient Methods and Blackest Ever Black releases.......... ,...... ......

 

Phase - Alone in Time?
The album kicks off with ‘Spacialize’ exhibiting hypnotic loops. ‘Orbitron’ follows on, more subtle stuff, with bleeps and Detroit style high synth pads..’...,. , .... ,...... ......
