Nixon’s been mixing since before he first stood on a snowboard over 20 years ago. Being a pro-rider on the European snowboard scene for over 15 years opened up a huge freesport audience to his mixing talents and he’s been a regular at massive surf & snowboard events for years.
It comes as no surprise then to this crowd, that Nixon is now beginning to receive respective accolades on the London scene for his musical talents. A random meeting with Justin Rushmore of FLR whilst snowboarding led to a move to London and a new addiction – producing.
His 2007 collaborations with D&B golden boy, Shimon, have taken the scene by surprise, with clubbers loving the heavily influenced D & B breaks - a fresh vibe in an increasingly jaded breaks scene. With three releases to date under the FLR wing, ‘I Like You’ received rave reviews, receiving regular airplay on both Annie Nightingale BBC and Kiss FM’s Jay Cunnings show. The second release “White Noise” went to No 13 in the DMC Buzz Charts, and ‘Around the Edge’, charged to No 1 in the Beatport Breaks chart.
Whilst Nixon’s background was rooted firmly in thrash and drum & bass, his DJ style today, is a dubby blend of fat, funky, grimy, neck breaking beats, topped off with a fine array of scratch blending riffs, enough to rumble any gig.
Now busy engineering his own tunes for solo release, it’s a hard life dividing his time between snowboard photo shoots, heli-boarding, and his recording studio in London! His strong self-expression of snowboarding is clearly continued onto the decks & is a lifestyle balance most DJs would kill for – something he’s proved by the success of his BKCham nights at his home resort of Chamonix. Legendary DJ’s have been lining-up to play alongside Nixon at the DC sponsored event. The Mixologists, Aquasky, Shimon, Tayo, Darren Jay, Davide Carbone, Superstyle Deluxe, MC Chickaboo, Mister Sushi and Utah Jazz have all graced the decks & torn up the slopes.
Scott is now billed as the UK’s only pro-DJ/music producer and professional snowboarder. From his debut at London's superclub - Fabric back in November 05, he’s now a regular on the scene playing at clubs nationwide, including Heaven, Ministry of Sound and a host of international festivals. He’s mixed CD’s for respected Knowledge Magazine and FLR’s Freshtraxxx Volume 2 album, he recently did a mix for Nissan’s Snow Tour and has had interviews & airplay on the BBC Radio, and even a photo shoot with David Bailey! With his collaboration with Shimon continuing this year and Nixon set to release a string of his own tunes, Nixon is set to shake up the scene with his special blend. What this space
