My Therapist

My Therapist is a DJ

When we play music for others we experience reading the emotion of the crowd and then adjusting our music to meet their mood and then elevate it. Even though we’re interacting with hundreds or maybe thousands, while a therapist is working with just one person at a time, the same principal applies: meet the client where they are, then help them to get somewhere better.

My Therapist always plays sets travelling across various genres of soul, hip hop, rnb, reggae, breakbeat and drum ’n bass but what he really enjoys is obsessively seeking out the latest mashups, blends and edits of classics from those genres for a more modern sound that audiences won’t have heard before. My therapist has been playing on Brixton Radio since early on in their launch , as well as streaming vinyl only sets on Twitch with the Forty Five Kings Collective. 

An accomplished music video director and editor, he has started vjaying with his own video mashups to match the songs he’s playing. My therapist is resident DJ for Happy Belly Music and The Guitar Social events. He was previously resident DJ for OneTaste music collective for several years at all their London gigs and festivals including Secret Garden Party and Lovebox, as well as playing sets at  Standon Calling, Wilderness, Boom Town and Glastonbury’s Shangri-la.

Born & raised in London, Nicão began DJ’ing at the age of 16 – diving head-first into the capital’s House & Garage scene. Within 3 months he’d developed the skills to feature on some of West London’s prominent pirate radio stations, including Freeze FM, Ice Cold & Westside Radio – under the tutelage of his cousin, ‘Purple’, who was an MC of somewhat cult figure proportions in the UK’s burgeoning Grime scene.

The development continued and manifested itself with appearances on the legendary ‘Sidewinder’ UK Garage series amongst a host of other events, while dipping his toes in the more placid pastime of curating mixtapes and compilations for corporations such as GSK and bars around the west side of London area.
