Nicky Elisabeth is a young female artist who was born in the South of the Netherlands and raised in Belgium, and is already making massive moves with an impressive selection of releases on esteemed imprints like Kompakt & Anjunadeep. We spoke to her recently to find out about her summer plans, and how it felt to play landmark venues like DGTL Festival and Fabric recently\u2026<\/p>\n
Hey Nicky, how\u2019s life in Amsterdam for you right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s good! The festival season has actually started and the city is alive again, god how I\u2019ve missed this!<\/p>\n You had to wait a while, but how was the experience of playing at DGTL festival a couple of weeks ago? DGTL was the best festival experience I had gig wise. AMP is such an impressive stage with its clear roof and impressive lighting. You could also really sense the joy of everyone there, to be able to be together after such a long time really does something to people. Such an experience probably won\u2019t come by again in my lifetime.<\/p>\n As well as The Netherlands, you\u2019ve began to spread your music across Europe, most notably with a recent set at Fabric. How exciting was that to play such a reputable club? Fabric was great, I truly enjoy going to London as well as I find the city and the music industry there very inspiring and forward thinking. This is also something you can sense in the nightlife since people are much more receptive to different styles of music.<\/p>\n Being able to travel a lot through my job is one of the things I love most about it. Even though you don\u2019t always speak the language, the way people dance or engage with the music is a whole language on its own; and that\u2019s a universal one.<\/p>\n Have you had time to reflect on the success\u2019 you\u2019ve had over the past few years? Absolutely, I honestly think I reflect a bit too much for my own good. But then again, there is no amount of reflection that can really get me to grasp what my life is looking like right now.<\/p>\n Do you have a preference between DJ\u2019ing, producing & singing? All of them have their own charm, I wouldn\u2019t want to choose. It\u2019s the balance between all three that keeps it interesting to me. What artists inspired you to get into music and who are your favourite DJ\u2019s right now? Mano Le Tough has always been one of my favourite DJ\u2019s, and still is!<\/p>\n Haai is someone I\u2019ve been watching for quite some time and I find her incredibly inspiring as well.<\/p>\n How do you spend your downtime outside of gigs and studio sessions? I\u2019ve been reading a lot lately; mostly fantasy books. This is the genre I loved since I was a child and\u00a0discovered the Harry Potter books. I remember being so eager to read the next one that I just started reading them in English\u00a0because those versions came out sooner. I was 9 years old haha.<\/p>\n You have a lot of festivals & events to come this summer, what are you most excited for? The last weekend of July I\u2019ll be playing 4 events\u2026<\/p>\n On Friday a festival in Groningen, then Saturday La Reve at the beach and Sunday I start at Awakenings and the afternoon I play Tomorrowland.<\/p>\n My booker tells me no one has ever played those two events on the same day so I\u2019m ready to check that box. haha<\/p>\n Anymore releases to come in the rest of 2022? Actually I have a release lined up very very soon!\u00a0On the 24th of May to be exact.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also the first release where I\u2019ll be singing in myself so I\u2019m beyond excited!! Stay Tuned!<\/p>\n Nicky Elisabeth’s new EP ‘Fading \/ Sun’ is out 24th May on Anjunadeep.<\/strong><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NickyElisabeth<\/a> Nicky Elisabeth is a young female artist who was born in the South of the Netherlands and raised in Belgium, and is already making massive moves with an impressive selection of releases on esteemed imprints like Kompakt & Anjunadeep.

\nTo me, being able to sing in my own productions and then hear them in a club is about as good as it gets.<\/p>\n
