When you think of Progressive House, there’s a handful of producers that are extremely respected and have been at the top of their game for many years. Nick Muir is one of those guys who has his feet firmly planted on the floor.
A genuinely nice guy who produces the most amazing progressive house/techno with twists and turns that very few can replicate. During the early Nighties, Nick met John Digweed.

It was not long into their association that they wrote and recorded the track 'For What You Dream Of' on Stress Records, which featured on the seminal ground-breaking compilation 'Renaissance - The Mix Collection' put together by John in conjunction with Sasha.
