Mengzy will be joining us for our Magnetic Soul & Friends history of Breakbeat special. We wanted to invite a DJ from next gen to give us their perspective of rave history, who is sincerely passionate about music and a true educator. She has recently received her PHD is Musicology and wrote her thesis on the history of rave culture in Hong Kong, so we feel like she is more than qualified to give us a sonic lesson.

I vividly remember the first time I heard Mengzy DJing. It was at a Subi Subez party at Gecko a few years ago. I didn’t know who she was at the time and had never heard of her. What she was playing instantly caught my ear. It was the first time in a long time that I heard a younger generation DJ that had obviously been doing their homework. She was playing some classic jungle alongside some ravey stuff alongside some newer forward thinking bass music. I listened to the whole set fully captivated.

Fast forward a few years when I had met and gotten to know Mengzy, and she has turned out to be a wonderful person, confidant, and close friend.

Mengzy’s accolades are impressive considering just a few years ago she didn’t know much about electronic music. She is a DJ, Producer, Music Journalist, Radio Host, Promoter, Academic, University Lecturer, and PhD in Musicology. She’s had a show on RTHK radio and does a monthly “Mengzy Selects” series for Mixmag Asia reviewing and showcasing original electronic music from around Asia. She also co-founded Feed the Dragon, which promotes UK Bass music and culture in HK and Asia.

What’s amazing about her DJing is that she has such a wide range, and she is absolutely able to pull it off. It’s a testament to how much time and effort she puts into researching her music. She delivers diverse vibes in anything from sunset beach club to industrial warehouse and festival settings. Mengzy is also frequently tapped by luxury, lifestyle, and corporate brands for events and launch parties.

DJ Nipper is a hugely talented chart-topping producer, working DJ, scratching and mixing specialist, streaming host, DJ instructor, and generally an awesome human being.

This Saturday on our Magnetic Soul and friends night at Oma, Nipper will be taking us on an oldskool journey. This will be the first time he will be playing an oldskool set in a club in Hong Kong in all of the years that he has been living here.

Back in 2009, We hosted Doc Scott and Marcus Intalex in Hong Kong and at dinner Marcus had only one request. He said he had a mate named Nipper that was one of his biggest influences from Manchester that was living in Hong Kong and wanted to get in touch with him. At that time, I did not know Nipper very well and did not have his phone number, so wasn’t able to get in touch and make that connection. However, Marcus talking about Nipper and telling old stories cemented my understanding of how influential Nipper’s career has been and how talented and impactful he is as a producer and DJ.

In the late 1980’s, Nipper was one of the pioneers of the Manchester House Scene along with Sasha, Laurent Garnier, Justin Robertson, Graeme Park, Steve Williams, 808 State DJs, Stu Allan & Jon DaSilva. Nipper was support DJ for Dance Bands: 808 State, Public Enemy, Big Daddy Kane, Prodigy, N-Joi, Shades Of Rhythm, Dream Frequency, The Shamen, Utah Saints, Bassheads, and Evolution.

In 1991, he embarked on his recording career releasing two tracks “Nightmare” and “Devastating Beat Creator” on Warp Records under the pseudonym “Kid Unknown” - the latter was voted number 3 in the All-time Hardcore Chart in Muzik Magazine.

Nipper set up LCD Records in 1998 with his partner Ian Bland (Dream Frequency) going on to release 9 singles including “Sanctuary”, & “Do You Believe” as Dejure & “Heaven and Earth” as Red.

On his 2002 debut album "Airdrawndagger”, DJ Sasha credited Nipper as one of his inspirational figures.

In 2017 he launched a label called - No Fakerz Records.

In all Nipper has had to date: Six Top 75 UK hits.
