New interview on Nerdy Frames:
http://www.nerdy-frames.org/2011/02/by-jasperworks-beetnik-was-given-to-us.html

Playing drums and guitar at an early age meant that Beetnik, born Nicky Low, had his musical tastes firmly in the rock spectrum, until a visit to Ibiza as a fresh-faced 17-year-old.

The island was a home away from home that allowed Nicky to sample a wide range of music, including house, electro, techno, hard dance and chill-out.

Being in Ibiza, for months at a time, gave the budding producer the chance to soak up the sounds from the world's best DJs, in the world’s greatest clubs, and gave him an intrinsic knowledge of what works on a dancefloor.

An accomplished DJ himself, Nicky has been DJing in and around Glasgow for about 4 years and more recently, the twisted electro sounds of people like Boys Noize, SebastiAn, Soulwax, Tiga, Justice and Digitalism caught his imagination.

Leading him to create his so-called ''twisted underground electro sound" under the Beetnik moniker, that became popular on various forums, and ink a deal with New York City-based record label ModyWorks in early 2009.
