Nicuri: 5 Records That Never Leave My Bag

Born and raised in Union City, New Jersey, Nicuri’s journey toward producing music and DJing took hold later than most.

Moving in circles surrounding the Exchange Place crew (DJ Qu, Joey Anderson & David Salazar) helped craft his style of DJing & music. His DJ style is careful selections arranged skillfully into to one seamless journey. His start as a DJ had landed him spinning at Concrete in Paris and Panorama Bar in Berlin on his first tour. From there he’s spun at the Panther Room in Output and many other parties in NYC.

Nicuri’s first track release was on DJ Qu’s record label Strength Music on the Exchange Place series called ā€œRidinthatneedleā€. It was a start on his journey to connect with people through his music. His fledgling discography include other releases on labels such as Growin’ Music, Inimeg Records, Bliq, Mora Music, YYG. In 2014, he had established his own record label called ā€œSound Theoriesā€ to further put out more of his music to the public. It’s here where he just put out his latest release, the stunning sounds of ā€˜Nicuri’s Landing’, a record that’s rightly winning props from some of the scene’s foremost players.
