'THE MOOD EP'(Renaissance Records) new release coming out on January 22th '07
The legendary Renaissance record label has a very busy schedule for the beginning of 2007. With the second volume of Transitions by John Digweed and plenty of EP releases, Renaissance promises a lot of goodies coming out.
One of them is Niki B & Christian E.F.F.E.’s
'THE MOOD EP', a solid two track package which will hit the stores at the end of January.
The Italians did it again. This time they did it big, with two track released on Renaissance, which is not such a simple thing at all. First track from the release is the rocking groovy tune called 'STONED',already a hit for the club lovers. This track made a good impact upon the crowd, being already supported by some heavy names from the dance music scene. Electro, smooth and filled up with filtered vocals, this track follows a simple path of other productions made by these two Italian DJs and producers. With the vocals from Pink Floid’s own song called “Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun”, this track is consistent in intense grooves, but an average melodic line; better to hear this tune on the dance floor.
As for the second tune, the track 'RELAX' starts simple and intensifies with each new synth added. The tech-house groove featured here takes the listener from the dance floor and pushes him into a dreamier atmosphere, still maintaining a fresh vibe through the heavy kicks and snares. The melody is simple and continues and plays an important role into the track’s structure.
Be prepared to listen to these two fresh tracks, because you’ll definitely hear more often about Niki B & Christian E.F.F.E.

They were respectively born in 1975 and 1977 and lives in Genoa, a great sea "place" in Italy.
They moved their first step as DJ's in 1993 and the great music feeling between the two made them want to create something of their own.
In 1999 "ESSENCE STUDIO" was born, a place where Niki and Christian still meet every night. In front of pc and a keyboard, they try to create their own sound, not leaving out the musical tendencies.
In 2000 they presented a project called "AFRìK" to DJ MIKI, who in the meantime had given life to a label very underground called SUN GENERATION REC. Miki fell immediately in love with the project and took it for his label.
Niki and Christian's music project was born and they called it SONAR, exclusive for the SUN GENERATION REC. "AFRìK" brought Niki and Christian into the U.K. market and many doors opened for them with different world labels.

'Niki B & Christian E.F.F.E. (aka Sonar) are two italian djs/producers with one goal on their minds - to create underground music that leaves punters on the dance floor screaming for more when the smoke clears.
The duo has steadily built a career with their records filling the boxes of top dance luminaries such as John digweed,Steve Lawler,Deep Dish and Murk'. *SATOSHI TOMIIE*
“Niki B & Christian E.F.F.E., are two essential witnesses of the dance underground scene of the first 90's. Through devotion and persistence today they achieve a spot on the first row of producers in our country.
With many productions spinned by the best djs in the world they keep to seed beautiful sound sensations.Enjoy their energy" *FRANCESCO FARFA*
