Nickon Faith steps up for this ITB guest mix — the Melbourne-based, Manchester-raised producer and DJ whose psychedelic, ethereal soundscapes and emotive high-energy grooves have been turning heads across the global underground since his debut album Circumambient was hailed by Mixmag as a breakthrough release in 2023.
Since then he has appeared at Boomtown, El Dorado, and E1 alongside Carl Cox, landed a guest mix on John Digweed’s Transitions, and earned consistent airplay on BBC Radio 1 and Rinse FM. His own label Resonance Spectrum Records and co-run Acid Faith event series add another dimension to an artist clearly building for the long game.
His ITB selection reflects that depth — Four Tet’s “Human Voice” opens with characteristic warmth before Barker & Baumecker’s “Nocturnal” on Ostgut Ton and Adam Pits’ “Plateau” add darker textures. Four Candles & Freemarx’s “Eudaimonia 303” on Bedrock and his own “Serenity” on Constant Circles close a mix that balances atmosphere with dancefloor precision.
