Nakadia Artist Bio

At the beginning of the 21st century, globalisation shows its face at every aspect of life. The music business is no exception to this phenomenon. Suddenly, great artists appear from every corner of the world, and inspiring newcomers from developing countries are now the ones to keep an eye on, as they are presenting their talent in a fresh and exciting new way. One of the most exciting up and coming artists is Nakadia from Thailand. She has everything a perfect DJ needs, and even so much more to offer. Music industry professionals all over the globe are stunned by this girl‟s performances. There is no second opinion: Nakadia has to be experienced!

The cliché “practice makes perfect”, seems to define Nakadia. Her modesty and humble nature would leave most in disbelief that she has played over 600 events in more than 300 clubs across 52 countries during the last 7 years. From major events like “Sonne Mond und Sterne” or “Loveparade” in Germany, the famous Thai “Fullmoon party” or “Queensday” in Amsterdam – or club gigs like “Café d‟Anvers” in Antwerp (Belgium), „Sugar Factory‟ in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), ‟Blue Frog‟ in Mumbai (India) or “Ritual” in Sardinia (Italy) – the little girl from Thailand has always managed to surprise everybody and in the most positive way.

Having experienced all kinds of crowds and dance floors of the world, Nakadia has the ability to read the room and work the floor in the most captivating way. Her musical and technical qualities behind the decks are complimented by Nakadia‟s vibrant personality and strong stage presence. Only very few artists have the ability to change the room they enter. Nakadia is one of these personalities that electrify her surroundings, as she is spreading out her good mood wherever she appears.

Born as a farmer‟s daughter at Thailand‟s poor Isaan province, nobody would expect that this cute little girl would change the music scene of her country, as she certainly did. Nakadia was always open-minded for new things, which took her through various jobs, until she came to Europe on a modelling assignment in 2002. During this trip she had the chance to listen to electronic music for the first time of her life. This experience changed her life, as she immediately knew – she had to become a DJ and play electronic music. Now partly living in Berlin (Germany) for 8 months a year she‟s flying out almost daily to every corner of the planet.

From the very first start in 2003 until now, Nakadia‟s development as a DJ has been as unique as it gets. She bought turntables and started practicing with a very limited amount of music. Already during her first days of practice she found out that the music she had bought was not the music she was looking for. Over the years she worked her way through various styles and genres, until she found herself in deep house, tech-house and minimal influenced techno. Deejays at the beginning of their career usually follow their idols or have experienced modern music for many years. Nakadia was completely without influence from any source. She bought her record just by ear, not by producer, label or style. This different and open-minded approach has made her the unique artist she is today, respected by all who witnessed her performances and made her into the most booked female tech house DJ of Asia.
