NIKS is a DJ, speaker, contemporary-trained dancer, and the visionary founder of Black Artist Database (B.A.D), formerly known as Black Bandcamp. What began as a spreadsheet during the 2020 lockdown has flourished into a vital platform amplifying Black artists and creatives in electronic music. Behind the decks, NIKS furthers this ethos, spotlighting Black musicianship with a smooth and adept selection of rolling house tunes, timeless classics, and dancefloor-tested gems that keep the energy endlessly alive. Her latest release, a collaboration with Or:la on the Céad label, is an infectiously rhythmic homage to peak-time club euphoria, sunrise sessions, and the pure joy of dancing together.
