Nikademis (born Nick Liuzzi) is an American electronic‑music producer, DJ and songwriter. He first drew national attention for an official remix of Illenium’s “U & Me” (2021) and was named one of Dancing Astronaut’s “Artists to Watch” for 2023.[1][2]
Early life
[edit]Liuzzi grew up on Long Island. He began DJing school events in 2013 and taught himself digital production software the following year.[3]
Career
[edit]2019–2021: Independent releases
[edit]A 2019 Trillvo feature profiled his track “The Simulation” and chronicled his shift from progressive house toward darker bass sounds.[3] In February 2021 he issued “I Don’t Wanna Know” with Friendzone and Candace Sosa, followed in September by an official remix of Illenium and Sasha Alex Sloan’s “U & Me,” later included on Illenium’s album Fallen Embers (remix edition).[1]
2022–present: Industry recognition
[edit]Dancing Astronaut cited Liuzzi’s Illenium remix, several singles released through the label Lowly., and a Welcome Records collaboration with Poni when selecting him for its 25‑artist 2023 watch list.[1] His crossover single “Follow You Home,” created with Far Out and Sarah de Warren for Ophelia Records, was released in June 2023; Dancing Astronaut described it as “a melodic‑bass standout that cements Nikademis’ upward trajectory.”[4] A September 2023 EDMTunes interview documented his signing to Lost in Dreams and touring slots with Blanke and Slander.[2] In July 2024 he co‑produced “If Tomorrow Never Happens” with Slander and Poo Bear, covered by DJ Life Magazine as “an anthem poised for main‑stage play.”[5] A March 2024 Neon Owl feature conducted aboard the charter festival cruise ship Groove Cruise explored his creative process and “dark, cinematic sound design.”[6]
Musical style
[edit]Interviewers describe Nikademis’ catalogue as “melodic yet mid‑tempo,” combining ambient pads with heavier distortion drops.[6]
