Nigel H has been playing in his hometown of Dublin since 1992 back in the
early days of the Dance Scene. His first event was at the infamous Mansion
House ( the home to the City Mayor!) one of first weekly underground dance
events in Dublin, before any nightclub was playing Dance Music.
Soon afterwards, he became resident DJ with Harmony Promotions, who ran
Friday and Saturday Nights at Dublin's Ormonde Multi Media centre which was
the first venue to hold nightly Dance events in Ireland. As well as playing,
Nigel also began booking some of the UKs best acts. He organised and
headlined a number of events which featured the best of the underground
labels from the UK (Ugly Bug, Slate, Positiva, Cleveland City, Whoop! and
Hooj tunes).
He then ran a series of blistering "Best of Irish" gigs which brought
together the best DJ's from both the Republic of Ireland and Northern
Ireland. This event toured Ireland, playing in Cork, Galway, Donegal,
Belfast and Dublin.
Over the years Nigel has played alongside many international DJ's including
Carl Cox, Jeremy Healy, Laurent Garnier, Sasha , Darren Emmerson, Alex P.,
Robbie Nelson (Agnelli & Nelson), Judy Cheeks, Jimmy Somerville, Scooter,
Seb Fontaine, J.X. (Son of a gun), Atlantic Ocean (Waterfall), and has
worked with the following club tours Ministry of Sound, Renaissance,
Manumission, Miss Moneypenny's, Hard Times, Clockwork Orange(Ibiza). Nigel
plays in London working with top promotors Wat's on, playing in Pacha, The
Cross, and the famous Hippodrome. More recently in 2004 ran a series of gigs
called Absynth recreating the vibe and energy of early Dance events.
2004 ended on a high with Nigel playing a guest gig in 'Sliver' Cape Town
and returned to the Cape February and July 2005 to play top clubs such as
sliver.opium.gallery.
