Nicholas’ productions are played by the world‘s biggest DJ’s and have been licensed to major mix CDs by Paul Van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Christopher Lawrence and Marco V. Joof (UK), Five AM (UK), Recoverworld / Eve / Flux Delux (UK), Duty Free / Intensive (UK), Screen (Italy), and Source of Gravity (UK) are just some of the industry’s most influential labels that have released his work. Nicholas collaborates regulary with the world’s #4 DJ, Christopher Lawrence, and recently remixed Christopher & John 00 Fleming’s latest co-production. Nicholas has also co-produced tracks with the world’s #34 DJ, Gareth Emery and legendary Hook & Bellboy Recordings producer, Chris Cowie / X-Cabs.

Nicholas’ popularity rose through the mid to late ‘90s after performing powerful and technically brilliant sets at hundreds of events each year and mixing two of the US’ best selling Trance Global Nation CDs which collectively sold over 50,000 copies. He continues to DJ around the World for major production companies including Spundae, Giant, La Boom, Clear Channel, Go Ventures, Destiny, B3 Cande, Channel 36 & Global Electro. Performing at “Massives” such as Nocturnal Wonderland and Together As One and alongside the biggest names in the business such as Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren and Hernan Cattaneo has solidified Nicholas’ reputation.

Nicholas also has numerous releases on his own label, Propulsion Records. Launched in 2003, the label has seen considerable success with its unique sound that treads the line between progressive and trance and doesn’t easily fit into either one of those categories. The roster is a who’s who of the most influential artists from around the globe.

Back in 1999, Arcade America commissioned Nicholas to mix the second installment of their hugely successful Trance Global Nation series and skillfully mixed what went on to be one of the best selling US mix CD’s of the year. Based on the success of TGN2, Nicholas was invited back to mix the fourth CD in the series, second time round having full control over the track selection. TGN4 was released during 2000; a tough and intelligent album representative of Nicholas’ true underground sound. To support the CDs, Nicholas headlined the Trance Global Nation Tour (featuring Jerry Bonham, D:Fuse, & Doran) and visited cities throughout North & South America, Canada and Asia. Nicholas’ third CD, “Crystal Vol.2,” was released through AM Recordings in 2001 as another testament to his unique and uncompromising style.
