the whole biography
The three members of N/UM come from a variety of musical backgrounds. Jeremy Loucas is a five time Grammy winning mixing & mastering engineer with years spent as a DJ in the underground party scene in NY – Elias Meister, an electronically experimental guitarist with a decade of performance experience in free and improvised music – Emil Bovbjerg is a vocalist, synth instrumentalist and producer/DJ with a background in orchestration and contemporary arranging and composition. Each performance or recording by N/UM is improvised, with no pre-composed songs, no plan or structure agreed upon. Despite the daring premise and unconventional creative approach the raison d’etre and mission statement of N/UM is simple: The opposite of war is a dance floor. N/um translates to medicine or supernatural potent energy. The word is used by the !Kung (formerly Bushmen), an indigenous people of Botswana and Namibia, to describe a healing energy used to cure sickness, both mental and physical, in individuals as well as the community as a whole. N/um is a central part of weekly dancing ceremonies, lasting typically from nightfall into dawn, in which the tribe’s members gather to dance for many hours until dancers enter into varying states of trance. As the trance deepens the n/um builds in the stomach, travels up through the spine and eventually explodes in the brain as the healers reach !Kia, the state in which, according to the tribe’s beliefs, a healer can transfer n/um to those in need of healing as well as to the community where it is said to maintain unity and relieve jealousy, greed and lack of gift giving. Among the !Kung everyone is encouraged to take part in the rituals and over half of the tribe’s members have become healers by the time they reach adulthood. You dance, dance, dance. Then n/um lifts you up in your belly and lifts you in your back, and then you start to shiver. [N/um] makes you tremble, it's hot. . . . Your eyes are open but you don't look around; you hold your eyes still and look straight ahead. But when you get into !kia, you're looking around because you see everything, because you see what's troubling everybody . . . n/um enters every part of your body right to the tip of your feet and even your hair. - Kinachau (via Richard Katz)Their RA profile lists Visionquest, Lost Diaries, Duro and Ninetofire.Recently at Private Party, Brooklyn Mirage, Mansions · often with Greg Paulus, O.BEE, Tomas Station, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Christina Crossin is a well-known name in the NYC underground electronic music scene. Since her integration as an artist into the scene in 2014, she has focused primarily on mastering the art of DJing, curating unique performances through her characteristic manipulation of music and meticulous track selection. She has now shifted gears entering the world of production, bringing over fifteen years of classical training with her. Christina has had great success translating her classical foundation into her current sound. She has always resonated the closest with the deeper and darker elements of music, which is reflective in her bass heavy and minimal yet melodic sound. Christina has proven to be a very versatile artist, breaking the boundaries of a specific genre that would define her, while staying true to her roots. This has allowed her opportunities to grace the decks repeatedly at some of the best venues and parties in the tri-state area and nationwide. Christina began her musical journey at the age of four on the piano, which quickly escalated into private lessons on multiple instruments that continued through adulthood. She focused heavily on the cello, which she credits being the reason for her love of the deep sounds and bass. She was continually awarded musical honors throughout her primary and secondary education, and was an active member of many concert orchestras, pit orchestras, chamber orchestras, bands and jazz bands. After entering college as a Music Performance major, Christina decided to deviate from her original plan and pursue a career in the health care industry. She thereafter completed a BS and MS in Molecular Biology and Biomedical Science, respectively, however Christina’s path naturally lead her back to music, where she feels most comfortable and expressive to this day. As Christina focuses on fine tuning her production techniques, she remains a regular name on the bills of NYC’s top nightlife destinations including Schimanski, Output, Cielo, Analog, TBA and Space Ibiza NY. She notes that some of the highlights of her career have been playing at the highly recognized outdoor oasis and summer powerhouse, The Brooklyn Mirage, as well as playing alongside legendary artists Paul Oakenfold, Erick Morillo, Stacey Pullen. As she is constantly striving to reach and recreate new goals, Christina has set the bar high for herself, and her ambition and dedication will be undeniable in the days and years to come.often with Matias Jofre, kikaii, Essi, none of them here that night
