Envision a young Nico, just 15 years old, standing behind a DJ booth in his hometown. Armed with a modest controller, he embarked on a musical exploration that would soon become his obsession.
At this stage, he wasn’t bound by genres or limitations. Instead, he embraced the eclectic, spinning EDM, trap, and hip-hop tracks in local nightclubs. It was a glimpse into the sonic world, a prelude to the extraordinary journey that awaited him.
