Nick Collings / Rik Hollings DJ Profile
Nick Collings
Nick first started DJing Easter 97 after following the rave scene for a few years going to underage parties here in Auckland, New Zealand.
The owner of one of Aucklands leading dance stores (Criminal Records - www.criminal.co.nz ) Nick Collings can and will play almost any style available. Often causing concern going against the grain of what others are playing. Nick is a leader not a follower, creating a style all his own and not being afraid to play it or feeling he has to conform.
He prides himself on playing the future sounds before they become pop culture.
Nick Collings achievements:
Residencies: Platinum 104 (98-99), Icon (99-2000), Cypher (2000), Staircase (2000), Sinners (2001), Jones (2001-2003) (Kiss 2001-2005).
Other Djing stints in 06 / 07 at Met & Code.
Many people write huge explanations as to why they have come so
far or why they deserve your respect. I'd rather let the facts speak
for themselves.

Rik Hollings
Rik Hollings is the alter ego of Auckland based "jack of all trades DJ" Nick Collings. Rik Hollings came about from a need to differentiate from the uplifting styles played by Nick.
Rik Hollings has an identity all his own, from Funky House, Classic club jams through to the cutting edge electro sounds. He feels "consistency & diversity are the two main ingredients to becoming an exciting entity that stands out in the saturated Auckland house market".
Evolution is the key to moving forward so expect to have a few of those "I've not heard this before.. but I kinda like it" moments when Riks on the decks, but don't be too put off as he's not adverse to dropping that killer tune you love to raise your hands to.
Internationals, Events & Clubs Played At: It's A Shaw Thing (ChCh), My House My Mansion (ChCh), Old Skool (Morrisson) , Back To Bacio (Bacio) Deep Hard n Funky (St James), Mint (Starzz), Flashdance (Code), Pure n Sexy Presents E-Rotic, Passport, Met, John Course, Mark Dynamix.
