Biography [link]

In 1988, Nick Warren began DJ-ing in Bristol, playing mainly reggae and indie music until house music became more popular in the UK.[2] By the early 1990s, Warren had become one of the more popular DJs in Bristol, performing regularly at the superclub Vision and DJ-ing for Massive Attack.[3][4]

While working at a record store in 1994, Nick Warren met producer Jody Wisternoff and the two decided to work together.[4] Their first collaboration was on the track "Paradise is the Sound" which they released under the artist name Sub-Version 3.[5] Warren describes Wisternoff as being the more technical of the two, while Warren states that he "bring[s] most of the sounds into our projects" and an understanding of what music needs to be successful at dance clubs.[2] Their next two releases were issued under the name Echo, with Way Out West being the name of their remix project.[5] The duo soon adopted the name for their act and signed a deal with Deconstruction Records.

In the mid 1990s, Nick Warren began a residency at Liverpool dance club Cream.[3] In 1997, Warren was given the opportunity to mix the second entry in the still young Global Underground series.[3] The album, Global Underground 003: Prague, is a live set of Warren's from Prague. Although labelled as 003, this was actually only the second release on the Global Underground label. This began a relationship with Global Underground which led to Warren creating seven additional mix albums for the series, including Global Underground 008: Brazil, Global Underground 011: Budapest, Global Underground 018: Amsterdam, Global Underground 024: Reykjavík, Global Underground 028: Shanghai, Global Underground 030: Paris, and Global Underground 035: Lima.[3] Warren stated that he feels comfortable working with Global Underground due to an underlying trust between himself and the label.[6]

In December 2000, Way Out West was dropped by Deconstruction, which had since been bought by BMG, as the label felt that Way Out West's album would not do well commercially.[2][5] Way Out West then signed a three-album contract with Distinct'ive Records, turning down offers from other labels such as Bedrock.[2][5] Their first album on Distinct'ive was Intensify, which featured the singles "The Fall", "Intensify", and "Mindcircus". "The Fall" used lyrics taken from the Cole Porter song "Autumn Leaves" and "Mindcircus" features vocals written by Imogen Heap.[2] For the next Way Out West album, Don't Look Now (2004), Warren and Wisternoff brought in vocalist Omi and drummer Damon Reece.[7] As of early 2007, Way Out West had begun work on new material.[8] Warren made this possible because he is now head A&R of Hope Recordings, the label in which their last single "Spaceman" was released in 2008.[9] In 2008, Global Underground released Warren's next compilation, Global Underground 035: Lima.[10] Before this album, Warren had sold over 110,000 compilations in the Global Underground series in the UK alone.[10]

For in-studio mixing, Nick Warren uses Ableton Live, ProTools, and some Logic Pro on a Macintosh.[11]

Way Out West's fourth album, titled "We Love Machine," was released on October 6, 2009. The song "Only Love" featuring Jonathan Mendelsohn on vocals (the album marks their first collaboration with a male vocalist) was the first single off the album, released August 31, 2009. The deluxe edition of the album on Hope Recordings is available at their own website.

Nick's recent ventures have been a remix of Grafiti's song Spooky Trains, out now on Hope Recordings and a remix of General Midi's song 'Absinth'. Also in 2010, Nick released on Bedrock Recordings, with the track In Search Of Silver and he began his Soundgarden show on Frisky Radio, a bi-monthly venture in which Nick plays a wide range of different sets on this popular station.[12]

2011 marked Hope Recordings' 100th release, taken on by none other than Nick Warren himself. The track was titled 'Buenos Aires' - as Nick feels a special connection with the city, having played there on several occasions. “I am in love with the city of Buenos Aires and have the most amazing time, each and every time I go there to play. I started writing this tune after playing there last year". [13] Hope Recordings' next release was by Tom Glass, titled 'Naive' for which Nick did his own 'Psycehdelic Wheel' Remix. In November 2011, Nick released another solo single, Rumbletump, on Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat label.

Nick Warren (cricketer)

Nicholas Alexander Warren (born 26 June 1982) is a former English cricketer, who played a number of senior games for Warwickshire between 2002 and 2005, though he made his List A debut for the Warwickshire Cricket Board side in 2001. He was a right-handed batsman and his bowling style was right arm fast-medium. He was born in Moseley, Birmingham.

He was said to have shown potential in the England Under 17 team against Ireland in 1999, and he went on to tour Malaysia with the Under 19's, and played in the Youth World Cup in Sri Lanka during 1999-2000. While in the England A cricket team, his Youth Test debut came in 2002 against West Indies A.

However, Warren's career appeared to be on the verge of decline when his contract at Warwickshire was ended in 2003 and, during his fight to keep his place, he missed three months of play due to a back injury (a stress-fracture of the spine) in 2004. However a run 'of impressive performances' earned him a renewal on his contract, where he played Northamptonshire in the Frizzell County Championship, taking three wickets for one run in ten balls.

    Pastor Troy:
    A sad day for da rap game im about to tell em my name(Pastor!!!!!)
    a.k.a they call me megatron da cepracon i flip into a gun and burn one
    soon as I duck I go change my disguise my first pump da last thing in his eyes
    and I aint thinkin bout no get back I got a army dat can handle dat
    matter-a-fact you about to be introduced duck duck duck let loose
    his triple fat goose look like cheddar cheese

    huffin and puffin got my blood pressure high
    must aint no I will ride till I die
    I put it all on da resume
    to come be out da Ga (now say)
    chorus:Im ready for take off take off
    Im ready for take off (say what)
    Im ready for take off take off
    Im ready for take off say boss
    Verse 2:
    They say da rap game like da dope game
    I already had a car tell
    talkin to my fam on da burned cell
    short wit da money we give em hell
    every shell
    shots rang out all you hear is da dude
    comin gureilla it aint no rules
    You say you a killa but wont let nuttin die
    caught em given mouth to mouth to fly
    dats why I am ready for take off
    Fillet menoun without da steak sauce
    da top of da line dats me Im prime
    had da underground on lock since '99
    while you was trying to figure out yo style yo image
    look what you became a mothafuckin gimmick
    smilen and grinnin you know who you are
    problem sit me meet me at da bar
    so far its three rappers I like
    me,myself,and I and Im tight
    and you aint gots to tell me im high
    smell the aroma as I pass by
    v.i.p everywhere dat I go
    soon I as I hit da door they blaze dro
    and if I muthafuckin die today
    know dat I had da balls to say
