Nina is a talented songwriter and producer. Her latest release Lucky Girl EP includes lead single and club ballad Lucky Girl and I Know How It Goes (feat. Vera Blue, Ecca Vandal) The EP also has guest production from Swick and Ninajirachi. Her previous releases include her 2016 debut EP “EZY or Never” and 2017 singles “Deserts” — an emotional club song, inspired by her family’s courage to immigrate from Egypt to Australia in the ’60s and “Freeze” which quickly became a club favourite.

Nina’s work ethic, tastemaker status and the inability to tie her to one genre is what makes her one of the most exciting label heads, producers & DJs going around.
