The chill is setting in, the heaters are turning on and LIMELITE gets set for an end of exams party like no other, with NADASTROM and special guest TIMMY TRUMPET.
Reigning from Washington D.C., Dave Nada and Matt Nordstrom have seen nothing but success since being established as duo DJs Nadastrom in 2007. Describing their sound as “club music with the energy and aggressiveness of Baltimore club music and punk” (Spinner), what is their forte? Indisputably it is their aptitude for pumping out club, house, electro and techno sounds that will get any person infused to their music and onto the floor.
Proof positive, the debut release from Nadastrom sold out on vinyl and became a digital store annual bestseller. Their debut Pussy EP with Switch’s label Dubsided topped international charts and became the number one download on Beatport in 2008. That same year Nadastrom also scored the most downloaded remix of the year on tastermaker’s blog Discobelle. Another Dubsided EP release in 2009 led to guest spots on BBC Radio One, playing alongside Diplo, A-Trak, Laidback Luke and Steve Aoki as part of a worldwide tour schedule. In between they created tracks with artists such as Kanye West, Kid Cudi, Kid Sister, Nina Sky, and Pitbull. March 2010 saw them bring their deep and infectious tracks to the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. Looking at their credentials, this energetic emerging duo is simply unstoppable!
Dave was a longtime resident of Spin Magazine’s “Best Party in America”, Taxlo, renowned for blowing up the dance floor with combinations of dance, hip hop, and punk rock tracks. He has also toured the world with highly respected DJs such as DJ Craze, DJ Ayres, and Tittsworth. On the other hand, Matt has been producing, remixing, and engineering for the world’s top electronic artists for nearly a decade, and has a Grammy Award nomination to boast about. His work appears on a long list of labels such as Global Underground, Ultra, Saved Records, Renaissance, EMI, and Minus.
Having met through a mutual friend, Dave and Matt came up with their band name Nadastrom as they wanted to reflect both their names as individual producers and artists. Interestingly, Nada is not Dave’s surname but his nickname as he was in a punk band called De Nada. Never refer to them as “Nada Storm” as they just might bite your head off, particularly because they describe themselves as “yeti”, a hybrid creation of sound hunted around the world. Be part of this monstrous musical phenomenon that is Nadastrom. According to Dave and Matt, “you gotta see it to believe it.”
