    “Could Nasser Baker be the next huge talent unearthed by Objektivity boss Dennis Ferrer?”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Could Nasser Baker be the next huge talent unearthed by Objektivity boss Dennis Ferrer? We certainly think so. Displaying a real maturity in his productions and a distinct lack of vocal fear, Nasser delivers quality, time and again. Off of the strength of his first ever release and label debut, ‘Salutations EP’ (Objektivity, 2013) came the 2015 'Deadlines EP' (Objektivity), followed by the 'Future Primitive EP (Objektivity, 2016). Keeping it busy in between the original releases, Nasser has delivered a couple of stellar remixes for PMR, Objektivity, Nervous and more. His 2016 endeavour, the ‘Gramercy EP’ on Suara received great reviews and showed off Nasser’s more techier side. Follow-up releases didn’t disappoint. Both ‘Just Like That EP’ (2017, Objektivity) and ‘Say Something’ (2018, Circus) received raving reviews and connected brilliantly where it matters most – the dancefloor. The 2019 marked a collaboration with Yulia Niko on ‘Someone I’m Not’, another banger called “Shake It Shake It” (both on Objektivity) followed by the now classic ‘Bodytude EP’ on Relief. A “rising artist with a sound and musical taste well beyond his years” according to upfrontbeats.com, Nasser choses quality over quantity time and gagain, and Bodytude EP is the proof. Title track ‘Bodytude’ opens the EP is fine style as Baker combines infectious lead synth with hooky male vocals and bumping low-end tones to reveal a lively cut typical of his ever-maturing production style, whilst ‘Pickelhollaback’ introduces a more off-kilter arrangement as layered vocal samples work alongside soaring melodies, driving percussion arrangements and sporadic bleeps and sonic effects go to work to shape up proceedings. Feeding off the success of Bodytude, Nasser releases his ‘Tribes of The Metronome’ on Dirtybird in 2020. The title single's stuttering bassline and simple vocals is an example of how to have maximum impact without being overproduced. The flip side, 'About You' is a tech house track with a house music feel - dirty bass and a playful lead line, accented by a straightforward phrase that proves effective. After taking a couple of months to regroup and recharge in the studio, the next brainchild of Nasser was ready to meet the world. 2021 marked Nasser’s return to Relief with the ‘Funky Uncle EP’ followed by his remix of ‘Whisper’ (Ferrer & Disciples, Defected) shortly after. Currently back in the studio wrapping up the next batch of fresh beats, Nasser is excited for the world to go back to normal and can’t wait to share the dancefloor with everyone once again. Stay tuned!

    “Pedrose’s sets are defined by tension and movement.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Pedrose’s sets are defined by tension and movement. Blending the swing of classic NY-meets-Chicago house with the raw pulse of Miami bass and Brazilian club, he resists genre constraints but always keeps the floor in motion. Shaped by a Rio de Janeiro childhood spent absorbing bootleg Miami bass in the backseat of his uncle’s car, Pedrose’s musical education has always lived between cultures and formats. He came up DJing in Houston’s house circuit—mentored by DJ Sun and Malcolm Bravo—playing near-nightly through the pandemic. In college, he wrote his thesis on the legacy of the 808 Volt Mix in Brazilian dance music. Pedrose’s crate-digging is informed by this experience, tracing samples back to bootlegs and street-level circulation. 2025 has marked a breakout moment. He’s shared stages with Dennis Ferrer, Chloe Caillet, MU540, Nick León, Prospa, Carlita, and Patrick Mason, with standout B2Bs at Fabric (with Tommy Gold) and The EDGE NYC (with Dennis Free). He’s also brought his sound to fashion’s leading edges—DJing for Nike, New Balance, Loewe, Coperni, and Middle East Archive—and was featured in Stone Island Sound’s mix series on Apple Music. That same year, he was included in the DAZED 100 list. In NYC, he’s become a trusted selector in the underground scene. He co-founded Estúdio Junto, a collective uplifting Brazilian artists across music, design and film. Its AO VIVO party series has become a key space for diasporic club culture, hosting artists like VHOOR, Th4ys, and SIXX4SIXX and bridging baile, bass, and global underground sounds. Outside the booth, Pedrose is also a creative director and visual artist whose work spans Apple, Vogue, and Dior. Most recently, he led the creative direction for Apple’s Club Radio, a new 24/7 DJ platform, and continues to bridge design and music through his multidisciplinary studio practice. Now in full production mode, Pedrose is working on his debut releases—original tracks shaped by years of digging, deep listening, and diasporic dancefloor research.
