Metal on Metal (Nesakyk mamai)

Biography

This is how it happened: three dirty music junkies met at the now deceased legendary Vilnius electro club Stereo45 and, after hours of drunken talk, decided to play some records together.

Manfredas, already a radio DJ and a specialist of bangin' anthems, be they rock or dance, Kym Wild, italo disco cum new/dark/no wave maniac, and Miss America, addicted to any dangerous guitar sound, threw their records together and started DJing. At first for themselves, then for some dedicated late night loco peeps, then for some pill-popping hand-raising whores and finally for the people who were not only nodding their heads like in heavy metal concerts but dangerously jumping and screaming nonsenses - the perfect riot crowd.

After a few months the sense to it all started to emerge: "riot music to dance to". In the summer of 2004 they made their official debut as Nesakyk Mamai! DJs (eng. Don't Tell Ya Mom), and since then they made quite a few things to be proud of.

The three DJs almost always end their sets when forced by security, scream like being stabbed, get naked and dance while playing endlessly, because, in their own words, it's the soundtrack of their lives.

It paid off more then needed: after playing together for only one year, NM! were given an Awkward DJ Team Of The Year title in the influential ORE portal's survey. They also played with such big shots as Gus Gus, Zombie Nation, Andrew Weatherall, Carl Craig, Westbam, etc. etc.

After bragging for years about how good they are, they finally shut up in autumn 2006 and produced their first real tune titled No Front Teeth, which, to their amazement, was greeted with handclaps and shout-outs.


Mixing all the ingredients of music genres that don't mix and being very offensive with stereo systems, NM! are the first from the Baltic electro scene to try to break it to the wider ears in the world. And maybe that's why they drink so much milk & work out for 20 hrs a day - to be in good shape when the bookings fly in.
