Even if it’s only in 2007 that Redux name makes it appearance on the electro scene , Nikko – the man who hides behind this guise – has been a familiar name in the more up-tempo register with not less than 20 releases along with Karbon 14 sound system in the mid 90’s.
Keeping his experimental approach of music, Redux, having achieved maturity, doesn’t need to force the pace anymore to captivate and electrify the crowds and starts to flirt with a vibe more close to electro-house and breakbeat.
Very fast he signs a first e.p. on American label Portamento but it’s in 2008 with the title ‘‘Diskobreaks’’ that he puts the basis of a more personal style which kicks straight in with its pounding analogical bass lines and fractured sounds harmonized with rhythms and samples from hip-hop, funk or disco. First selected on Level 75’ “Spicy Cunts” compilation then released on Katorza - a nu label he runs with Maelstrom – in 2009, this track has gained much respect and support from International artists such as Popof, Crookers, Rico Tubbs, Aquasky, Malente, Cut la Roc or Lee Mortimer
to name a few.
Redux follows up this successful run with several critically acclaimed remixes on Katorza and not less than seven original pieces signed on Miles Dyson’ label PlasmaDigital. Meanwhile he works and composes the soundtrack for electro circus show ‘Sweatlodge’’ including “Cirkalia” and “Bassline Circus” tracks released today on Expressillon aside dancefloor-lifting “Bouncing Pigs”.
