Nicole’s unique appeal has won her a legion of like-minded fans worldwide; no bullshit, upfront honesty, integrity, vulnerability, anger, passion, love, kindness, loyalty, and a steadfast determination to keep pushing forward make her a force to be reckoned with. An unstoppable soul who stands in a class of her own, Nicole Moudaber is one of the techno world’s most iconic contemporary artists.

Beginnings

Raised in Nigeria of Lebanese descent, she moved to London after falling foul of Lebanon’s ultra-conservative policies. Nicole defined her career in London and touched the lives of hundreds of thousands of people all over the planet. Moving from promoting events to DJing and production, she immersed herself in the club scene and soon began traveling the world. In the last few years, Nicole has circumnavigated the globe countless times, spreading her contagious energy to dance floors far and wide, from Brazil to Sydney, Montreal to Dubai, and everywhere in between.

During her meteoric rise to techno royalty, tragedy struck. The passing of her father in 2012 nearly derailed her career. Fueled by grief and anger, Nicole threw herself into her work and experienced unparalleled achievement, producing some of her best music and playing some incredible DJ sets. But, as you will find with much of the world’s compelling music, there is often agony and torment at its roots, and, though she did her utmost to suppress those feelings, eventually, Nicole crumbled. Yet, from that moment, Nicole rebuilt herself. She confronted some deep-rooted emotions and made peace with her past. It’s been a turbulent ride, but no progress is without suffering.

A Genuine Person

No matter where she is – at home with friends, chilling with a loved one, or behind the decks – Nicole Moudaber is the same person: genuine, compassionate, aggressive, and as natural as can be. Nicole’s unfiltered public image and sincerity have created a strong bond between the formidable selector and her fanbase. It’s an unspoken level of understanding centered around love, anguish, grief, joy, and myriad other emotions in Nicole’s performances. As an all-out dance floor fiend, primed to cultivate unforgettable memories, thrilling, euphoric, and powerful.

Nicole applies the same devotion and intuition to her every endeavor: her record label, MOOD Records; her MOOD brand of events; her warehouse parties, MoodRAW; her festival stage, Mood ZONE; her day party, MoodDAY; and her radio show, In The Mood globally syndicated across 80 stations in 50 countries, with over 20 million weekly listeners.

Nicole puts her heart and soul into all aspects of what has become her life’s work. Never one to stand still, she is constantly seeking to advance and evolve; to better herself and grow as an artist and a human being, which has produced an ever-growing list of achievements: Best Online Music Show in the 2016 Online Radio Awards, Best Minimal/Techno Track at the International Dance Music Awards in 2012 for her remix of ‘Chemistry’ by Carl Cox and Best Tech House/Techno Track at the 2016 IDMAs for her rework of ‘Give Me Luv’ by Alcatraz, features in a wide range of high-profile media outlets including CNN, The New York Times, Rolling Stone and more. In addition, she has been profiled by Red Bull on her passion for motorsports, unveiling her double-life as a Professional Race Car Driver. This high-octane hobby encapsulates Nicole’s fearless nature and unerring passion for living life in the fast lane. She compares the concentration needed to stay on the race track with the singular focus required for DJing, the two passions feeding into one another.

Driven

The constant fire in her belly has catapulted Nicole into the upper echelons of the electronic music world, where she occupies her own space as head of the Mood empire. The global reach of this brand has led to Nicole curating MoodZONE festival stages at the world’s most significant events: The Resistance Stage at Ultra, Electric Daisy Carnival (New York, Las Vegas & Orlando), California’s Escape, and BPM Festival (Mexico & Portugal) joined by friends such as Carl Cox, Sasha, Danny Tenaglia, Chris Liebing, Paco Osuna, Pan-Pot, and Dubfire.

Aside from her MOOD events, Nicole maintains a relentless touring schedule, delivering her dark, vibrant and passionate blend of techno to clubbing institutions worldwide. Her regular appearances include Paradise at DC-10 in Ibiza, London superclub Fabric, and New York’s Brooklyn Mirage, headlining across multiple continents, including North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.

Philanthropic Endeavors

Above all else, though, is Nicole’s fighting spirit and the desire to use her status to highlight injustice. Nicole’s belief in giving a voice to those in need emanates from her core. Her most recent campaign focuses on supporting victims of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). She launched the charity ELEVEN on International Day of the Girl Child in October 2018. The charity aims to raise funds for Magool, an organization that provides support to victims and funds volunteers to help prevent the brutal and barbaric practice. In addition, Nicole works with the Lower East Side Girls Club in New York, where she has mentored young women, giving them the skills and confidence they need to become music producers in their own right, and also furnished them with equipment. She has also given her time to Solving Kids Cancer, an enterprise that has utilized its research to work on cures for rare forms of cancer. On top of that, Nicole is also an ambassador for the Association For Electronic Music (AFEM), using her position to campaign for positive change in the electronic music industry.

Nicole Moudaber is a speaker of truth, a campaigner for social justice, a lover, a warrior, and a woman – a human being with the darkness and light we all carry. But, beyond the artist you see on stage, Nicole is instigating change, a leader with a legacy centered on empowerment, education, and social progress.
