“Music is my therapy. I love getting lost in music and the joyful feelings it stirs up in my chest. “ NixXxstaa (a.k.a Nikki Bothwick-Adams) A graduate of Lisa Lashes School of Music. Her love of music started out at a young age when she learned to play the recorder at school, and then went on to learn the saxophone too. Playing in an Orchestra at the age of 12. Nikki’s love of dance music happened in 2006 when she was at a friend’s house and they were playing Lisa Lashes Extreme Euphoria. From that moment she wanted to be a part of the scene and learn how to DJ. In the same year, Nikki found a copy of Virtual DJ and started to learn how to mix tunes together. She also had a regular show on an online radio station “Scouse-Nation” playing all sorts of genres from Scouse to Hardcore and Hardhouse. In 2014, Nikki met “The Madfams” A group of like-minded clubbers who met up at events around the UK. She used to attend after parties where there would be a set of decks. Nikki would take the time to learn how to use them asking for tips from her friends. She realised she caught the bug, and wanted her own set up, so she saved up for a few months, and eventually bought herself some Pioneer CDJ 1000s and a DJM 600 mixer. Every night after work, you would find Nikki in her bedroom practicing until the early hours. This soon paid off and in 2016, she was asked to play her first gig for Hard Hush in Brighton. Nikki has also played at the Madfam Reunion at 414, Brixton and Marvellous Minds, Stoke- on –Trent. In the summer of 2018, Nikki saw an opportunity to join Lisa Lashes School of Music. She applied and was super excited when she got the call to say she had a place on the course. The course has helped her with sharpening up her skills, and learning some new techniques with the mixer. The tutors must have noticed, as she was given the opportunity at Unity of Sound (the event Nikki and the other students created) to go B2B with one of her Idols in the Hardhouse scene “BK”.

Music has been at the centre of my life for as long as I can remember and im confident to say its shaped who I am today. From a very young age I was very much into Syththesized music , especially Jean Michelle Jarre (one of my all time heroes). Along side this I loved early electro house and Detroit techno so naturally , was blown away with the late 80’s acid house explosion and even more so by the early 90’s Rave explosion, and this is where my passion really set in. I first went on a pair of decks at the tender age of 9 years old (1991), and around this time got 1xdeck for Christmas, now….clearly you don’t have to be a dj to understand that this is useless for mixing, but, for beatmatching, this was the best thing you could imagine! Id beatmatch vinyls to tapes,or anything that was playing in the house,and by the time I got my 2nd deck and mixer at 12years old, the learning curve of beatmatching was already mastered! Now, musically , im predominantly Hardcore, always have been, from early breakbeat hardcore right through to todays sounds. Ive loved the evolution of the sound and have the same passion for the sound as I did 20 years ago. Trance was a major influence for me in the 90’s too , especially Paul Oakenfold/Sasha/Digweed to name a few….their ability to seamlessly blend tracks together over the course of an hour or so and leave me feeling like id been on a musical journey really inspired me and applied this same technique to everything I mixed. Today, I concentrate mainly on Uk Hardcore and Hard dance, which while im “here” must mention how impressed and inspiring I find hard dance at the mo , from the techy minimal sounds right through to the tough hardstyle sounds of Europe, I feel this scene has got a lot to offer and has something for everyone. Im loving the Hard dance scene as a whole at the moment, whether it be Breakbeats/Kickdrums/trancey/ravey/techy/fast/slow…..the scene in my eyes is as diverse as its ever been, whatever others may think! Music is a way of life!

Started mixing in the late 80's,with house music like orbital,klf,8o8 state etc and the chicargo/detroit scene that was big around that time and moved right through into the beginning of Belgium techno and hardcore scene and into Jungle/ D&B from 92 onwards aswel. Would mix most styles of dance music from house to progressive, garage and big beat etc. If it had a beat and I had enough tunes for a mix id mix it. Loving the Hardcore Breaks / Nu skool Breaks scene at the moment,thats keeping the old skool scene going.I've never prepped or worked out a mix ever,just cue the first two and of i go with just the tunes laid out in front of me.This way i feel the music and vibe more and its where i get my kick,mixing the way it should be done.Will only upload a mix im sure makes the grade. I love doing mixes of megamixes too and upload them every couple of weeks or so.
