NSJ first came about in the mid 1980s with the purchase of a laboriously saved for portastudio, a borrowed mono synth and drum machine plus a selection of ropey effects and badly soldered leads.

Influenced by early 80s synth pop, Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire and other early innovators of electronic music, the sound of NSJ has slowly changed over the years with a steady stream of equipment along with new influences such as EBM, Industrial and the early 90s dance sounds plus more recent innovators in the IDM field.

The current work of NSJ attempts to fuse the melodic sensibilities of 80s electronica with the more in depth sound of subsequent artists in the electronic music field, hopefully creating an interesting and varied hybrid of the two.

Utilising the sounds of real analogue, virtual analogue and soft synths plus a myriad samples culled from many quarters, NSJ continues into his 23^rd year, still harbouring the desire to at least get a track onto an obscure compilation somewhere!
