Biography
Under the name "Nader" (which is also his first name) Nader has been DJing for many, many years. Before that, he played in a crossover band called "Bicycle Repairman" (guitar & voice). In 1994 Nader started to spin (DJ) and in 1998 to play live electronic music. Apart from his own project he had various projects with other musicians such as, “Repos” (keys), “Betinsky” (voice & keys), “Smooth” (voice), and “Dunvær” (guitar). Back then he mainly used vinyl in conjunction with different effect units for my mixing. In 2003, Nader was one of the five initiators of the famous “Dachkantine” club in Zurich. Due to the club’s tremendous success, he was soon completely absorbed with no time to push ahead with my live projects. When, after three busy years, the club was shut down in 2006, he decided to pick up where he had previously left off. February 2009 Nader marked his first international release, a remix of Daniel Boon’s “Ding Dong” on “BuyYouSellMe” Records. “Rocket Launcher Team” and some other remixes followed 2009/2010 on labels like “Empro Music” and “Muenchen”. In April 2013 followed his release “Flesh” (with Remix of Paul Brcic) on the ambitious Swiss label “Neustadtmusik”. This August he had two releases: ‘By Day’ on Neutstadtmusik 007 (with a Mihai Popoviciu Remix) and ‘Raris Poubaix’ on the swiss label ‘UHU 003’. In November (4th) 2014 he has a remix on ‘Tanzkiosk’(EP parisienne). End of the year one further track on a double vynilalbum on ‘Neustadtmusk’ again (Hund um den Renniger Turm). And right now many other releases in the pipeline for the next months.

Traktor DJ Pro provided the optimal platform for cutting edge DJ, loop, and live performances. To listen to / download some of his colourful and flowing mixes (and snippets of his releases): http://www.soundcloud.com/nader Nader’s musical style is generally based on minimal beats, Techno, or Tech House, with some elements of Dub, Melodic or even Pop. Moods range from sweet, sexy, to dark and underground. For the past 2 – 3 years, he has been playing 6-9 times a month on average all over Switzerland and at times in other European countries (e.g. Berlin (Bar 25, Katerholzig, Golden Gate), Fusion Festival, Heidelberg, Barcelona, Madrid, Ibiza, Istanbul).
