nichola.noa’s journey into music started early, but everything changed in the late ’90s when he discovered underground electronic sounds. Influenced by the progressive storytelling of Sasha and John Digweed, and the era-defining trance of Tiësto and Armin van Buuren, his taste quickly took shape.

 

In the early 2000s, he picked up his first turntables and mixer, initially just to learn—but it soon became serious. Drawn toward progressive house and techno, his sound evolved over time into something deeper and darker, with Damian Lazarus emerging as a lasting influence.

​

After years of local gigs, nichola.noa moved to England to fully dive into the scene, performing at respected venues including Egg London, Ministry of Sound, and Vauxhall Lightbox. Although life later pulled him onto a different path, music remained central. Back home, he launched the Connect Mix Series, a platform dedicated to deep underground sounds, now streaming on Mixcloud.
