Bio

Nicko Shuo came to techno from trance, working his way into the harder, hypnotic end of the music by picking apart the records he admired; he names Inigo Kennedy and Perc among the producers who set his direction. Since October 2024 the Saint Petersburg producer has appeared on more than eighty releases across dozens of small techno labels, from Dosis and DarkForest to Children Of Tomorrow. He works entirely inside Ableton Live with its stock instruments and effects, and says he keeps the number of tracks and processing chains as low as he can, then leaves a sketch alone for three to five days before returning to finish it. In 2026 he made his first appearance on Jeton Records with the Interferences EP.
