Artist Bios:

Nikita (Listed|The End Up | Non-fat)

It wasn’t too long ago that NIKITA ventured out from Denver, Colorado to pursue his dreams of working in the music industry. A lifelong love affair with music began as a young boy playing piano, singing and dancing… It wasn't until later later in life when Nikita attended a warehouse party that would change his life forever (Circa 93’) - Nikita became one of Denver’s ‘underground party-scene offspring’!

In 2000, Nikita left Colorado for California… In the past eight years Nikita’s perseverance and pure love for quality dance music has placed him among the top DJs of San Francisco’s world-famous club scene. In 2005 Nikita was chosen to host his own radio show on Northern California's Energy 92.7 FM – The Massive Mix. It was Nikita’s raw talent that also landed him a residency at San Francisco's legendary nightclub, The EndUp.

Performing anywhere from 2 to 8 hours; Nikita's playfulness behind the decks takes you on a ride seamlessly blending sick minimal grooves, heavy basslines, melodic synths, and twisted beats, while still keeping it soulful and deep. Nikita has played along side the likes of Lee Burridge, Steve Lawler, Steve Bug, M.A.N.D.Y., Tom Stephan (Superchumbo), Craig Richards and Damian Lazarus, with inspirations coming from friends like Ms. Honey Dijon, Tedd Patterson and Danny Tenaglia. Through his broad musical taste and genre bending, Nikita has always managed to create a unique dance floor experience that continues to draw a diverse audience. Nikita is currently working on his own music productions, so be on the lookout for his new releases in 2010

Barclay Spring (222 Hyde)

Barclay's deep love to dance and for dance music began in the 90's in NYC. He began frequenting the legendary Twilo and saw Danny T almost every Friday for his Be Yourself parties at Vinyl. Barclay's constantly growing record collection lead him to start mixing them. In 2004 he moved to Hawaii to get out of the hustle of NYC. Barclay played his NY style all over those islands for close to 3 years.

Barclay came to SF for a visit 3 years ago and moved there 4 months later. He couldnt resist the goodness of the people and the progressive thinking of the artists here. Since his arrival, Barclay has opened for acts like Maetrik, Pan-Pot, Jay Haze and Danny Howells. You can find him behind the bar any night at the local legend 222 or makin you dance on any of the great systems in the city.

Zenith (Funkentanzen | TekAndHaus)

Stephanie grew up immersed in music from an early age. Stephanie’s jazz-drummer father put her in front of a piano at age 6. Stephanie’s been involved in all types of musical pursuits from classical piano lessons, musicals, tenor saxophone, classical guitar, college-radio DJ, choreography/aerobics instruction, and DJing and music production.

Stephanie was lured to the San Francisco dance music scene from Washington, DC in 2002. Stephanie quickly developed a strong style that’s a fusion of house & techno: thumpy, minimal, and always accompanied by a provocative melody.

Stephanie formed Zenomena Productions in 2008 as a vehicle to fly in top talent and a mechanism to highlight the talented artists of the San Francisco bay area. Zenomena Productions throws a regular one-off party called Funkentanzen and a monthly called TekAndHaus . TekAndHaus began in the basement of Temple but now lives @ Paradise Lounge. Zenomena Productions is Stephanie’s personal investment in the music that has become her passion & obsession.
