DJ Cavey Nik [Dead and Buried UK]

About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Hi! I'm Cavey Nik and I'm a London-based Deathrock/Goth/Gothabilly/Post Punk/Horror Punk DJ and gig [100% independant] promoter, and I run "Dead and Buried", which is the UK's "first and premier" contemporary Deathrock night (now in its 5th year)! Based in London the capital of the UK [the biggest and best city!] We attract a considerable crowd of regulars ["DaBers"] and draw many folks from Europe and the USA and further afield each month!
I've been into music since the age of 13, and I'm still in awe of the fact that sometimes even now I'm bowled over by good tunes!
I play music to *dance to* and discourage *sitting down* at my events..This aint no "social club"; it's a PARTY!
I'm always looking for cool and interesting new [and old and forgotten] music! Reccomendations welcome
The music we play at D&B is the *real* alternative to the "alternative", the *real* "underground" [as Post Punk/Goth/Punk Rock once was...]
By the way I DON'T LIKE 99.9% OF METAL MUSIC [so don't ask to be my friend if you're a METAL band, ok?!]
If you are in a cool band and think I may be into your music, please msg me about sending me a cd!

I also DJ at various other places in London regularly...including The (infamous) Devonshire Arms (Camden Goth pub) where I hold my monthly ZOMBIE DANCE, GLITTERY DUST, 80's nights. Also at other events in the capiol....
I like to guest at other clubs, whenever I can and have DJ'd at such prestigious events such as:

Onderstroom (Holland)
Whitby Gothic Weekend (UK)
Bats Over Milan and Rome (Italy)
Cornucopia (Belfast)
Slimelight (UK)
Under Cover of Darkness (Germany)
Thule Club (Berlin)
Le Klub (Paris)
Undead (Barcelona)

and *many* club night/gig events all across the whole of the UK, such as:
Black Machine
Church of Madness
Dark Trix
Kryptorium
Pitch Black
The Wake
Misery of Sound

I also put on gigs in London from time to time (of cool deathrock-style bands mostly; always of bands that I like musically personally) and have put on such acts as Devilish Presley, Cinema Strange (UK debut and exclusive show) Leisur Hive, New Days Delay (UK exclusive and debut show), Ausgang and Katscan and many others....

My Interests

MUSIC! Listening to and discovering great [old and new] music in many forms! Going to live gigs, and putting on live bands that I like...Going to the theatre, cinema, food, greyhounds [and dogs in general], the internet, running, dancing, girls with big noses [dunnno why!], European girls [German, Italian and French ladies are usually stylish and cute!], swimming, travelling, porn, yoga, tattoos, trying to keep fit, piercings, comedy DVDs, laughing [yes, I do it sometimes], cycling, kissing ladies...DJing of course! Meeting new and genuine people...

I'd like to meet:


Anyone who's interested in Deathrock/Goth/PostPunk/Gothabilly + Graveyard Garage/HorrorPunk/80's NDW/New Wave/ Elctropunk music etc...and people who are interested in attending DEAD AND BURIED club and live gig events.
Other *quality*, *discerning* and *real* DJs/promoters/bands etc...People that are *genuine* and *open minded* about music and dont just follow "trends" blindly, or are "cluless cunts" who think they can just blag....

Any artists/DJs who "gets" Deathrock and wishes to collaborate, offer reciprical favours, and produce quality events/products together.

If you're in a band and describe your music with the following words: Metal, Thrash, Grindcore,Grunge, Hip Hop....DONT ask to be my friend. I'm not interetsed, thanks!
I'm always lookin' for cool bands to put on in London, however it's very expensive to do so! If *you* want to help me put on more cool bands in London, please donate! Any help much appriciated to help spread the Deathrock word in the UK!
