About Me

Originating from Pukerua Bay, a small West coast town near Wellington, New Zealand. After school, working in urban radio, record labels (Polygram National promotions manager, Festival records promo, Shock Records G.M, radio & TV voiceovers, music television presenter (temp), then eventually implementing a government funded music programme (NZ On Air) raising the share of NZ music on NZ radio, this was (and is still) very succesful, now with a staff of many.For the past 8 years, based in Brooklyn, she has rapidly risen through the DJ ranks to be scooping some of the best engagements on the East coast and beyond. A proper party specialist who can illuminate the vibe. NICOLE LEONE has the sounds and demeanor to handle any kind of selection scenario.Her rep comes from seamless mixing, solid selection, and empathy with any kind of crowd from lounge, club, corporate and charity, a classic set may vary from Massive Attack, to the carpenters or Alton Black music from the 1930's--->reggae (rocksteady, roots, ska, dancehall etc) hip hop, R & B, house, pop, brazilian, many genres. Whatever works.That has included spinning for the New Yorker magazine party at the Chinatown brasserie, also at the Manhattan Centre, the NY Life Building,Capitale, 1 Central Park Club, The Metropolitan Pavillion, The Yale Club, Chelsea Piers, and over the past few years... the Superbowl street event 05 Jacksonville, the Samsung Launch Time Warner Centre Manhattan, Platinum Amex Xmas Party, The Plaza, W Hotels Underbar,Whiskey Blue,The Stone Rose, also Hotel QT. And premier events like the Mercedes launch with ERYKAH BADU at Shea Stadium, she has played alongside DJ RED ALERT, DJ PREMIER, LORD FINESSE, the legendary ROC RAIDA (Xecutioners), BOOGIE BLIND (X-Factor), JU JU & LES (THE BEATNUTS), and RIHANNA, the"Sanctuary For Families" charity event (standing in for GRANDMASTER FLASH), The annual Food and Wine Magazine awards, Town & Country Magazine Awards Arizona, the Ford Model Agency xmas parties '04,'05. Appearances in 2 D.J documentaries, "Mixtress X" and "I Live For This.." a doco for Korean MTV of NY's hottest D.J's. Her style is international and in 2007 she landed a spot with Cancer of Stone Love, in Kingston, Jamaica. Currently she has residencies with the W Hotels in NYC and The Stone Rose NYC.Few DJs can be fresh as well as know the classics but that is everyday biz for Nicole who can come correct with the choicest cuts, and blends. Already a huge success in the notoriously tough DJ worlds of Manhattan and Brooklyn NICOLE LEONE has skills to pay the bills and the tunes to do the damage - all that is really required is turntables, and the woman recently described as ‘the hottest emerging party DJ out of the 5 Boroughs’ will do the rest. ..
