Over

Norman Lenden doesn’t just play tracks — he curates moments. As the creative force behind Club NIX and one half of the iconic trance duo Mark Norman, he’s been shaping dance floors worldwide for over two decades. Now, he channels that legacy into his bi-weekly Club NIX podcast — a raw, genre-blurring journey through melodic techno, progressive sounds, and everything in between.


Each episode is more than a mix — it’s a statement. Norman blends his own productions, tracks that once set dance floors on fire, and cutting-edge releases from emerging talent you need to hear before the rest of the world does.


This blog dives deeper into that vision: behind-the-scenes stories, creative insights, and the mindset of a DJ who still believes music should move you — not just algorithmically, but emotionally.

CLUB NIX 137 — Built Like a Proper Club night
Some sets are about moments.Others are about structure. CLUB NIX 137 was built like a proper club night — one that slowly opens up, locks into groove, peaks with intention, and ends on a positive note. The journey starts deep and cinematic. Frida Darko & Atric – Hush sets the tone perfectly: warm, restrained and full of atmosphere. It creates space before the movement begins. From there, the groove tightens with Tini Gessler , Mesto and Romain Dary . This part of the mix is about trust —...
