Born in New York City, Niko split his early days between the city and Northern New Jersey, right across the Hudson. He fell in love with the music of artists as diverse as Prince, Chaka Kan, The Prodigy, Flying Lotus and Kaytranada, which helped shape the genre-defiant style that would later define his sound.

After firmly deciding to pursue music full time, Niko relocated to Philadelphia, where he began studying with some of the most accomplished audio engineers and producers in the game. Niko began acquiring an armory of analog and digital equipment, giving him the tools needed to bring the sounds in his mind to life.

Since then, Niko has been on a creative roll. He has several promising projects he plans to release in the near future. In addition to his innovative solo electronic music, he has begun branching into film scoring. But regardless of the project, Niko can always be counted on to create a thrilling experience. By incorporating hypnotic Latin grooves into his productions, he has designed a unique style that belongs to him alone. As his artistry continues to evolve with every release, Niko seems poised to leave a lasting legacy on the local scene and beyond.
