TIM NICE
In 1995 Tim Nice erupted on to the scene at Dicks T Bar in Val di Isere, after a brief few sessions of covering for the resident DJ whilst he powdered his nose, the crowds where screaming out for more thus giving Tim the main slot. On returning to England word quickly spread of this hot new talent, opening up nights at the world renowned Velvet Underground in Soho, along with residencies with 2 of London’s biggest clubs Carwash & Come Dancing his mark was securely made. There was no stopping Tim from then on, you could catch him dropping sets at Miss Money Penny, Jet Set, The White House, Dellerium, Future Perfect, Hanover Grand, Imperial Gardens, Chunnel Club, Leisure Lounge, Cargo, Brixton Academy, Hammersmith Palais and the Ministry of Sound to name a few....

He stood out from the crowd with his imaginative combination of house beats and obscure overlays, relaying his love and passion for dance music on to the dance floor! Tim became a recognised player notching up slots at several festivals including V2005 & V2007, Periferias, Festival, Spain. Molise Festival, Italy and the Vale Earth Festival, Guernsey. And morecently playing just about every festival in Cornwall either as Tim Nice or one half of Bronx Cheer. After mastering his DJ skills and rocking many a dance floor Tim moved in to production and polished his skills as an engineer, producing under highly respected names of Tim Nice and Bronx Cheer giving some powerful combinations of Disco tech house, minimal tech and just down right big club sounds not to be pigeon holed to one genre. His mixes and tracks constantly feature in the charts of some of the biggest players on the scene today, so you can bet your bottom dollar Tim's here to stay and is certainly one to check out and follow.

We explore the thoughts of artists and music sharing. In today's digital age, discovering new music has become more accessible than ever due to online platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, and download services such as Beatport. While traditional methods of exploring music, such as visiting record shops, have diminished in popularity, the process of musical exploration remains significant and enriching, especially when one encounters a standout track. For performing artists, the quest for fresh music is a continuous endeavor, often regarded as equally important as the performance itself. This raises an interesting question: is it appropriate for artists to keep the details of their music sources confidential? This topic invites further discussion from some of the South West DJs and producers on the nature of music discovery in the modern landscape.
