American-Italian artist Nick Calingaert hails from Chicago, and was living in Brussels around the mid-90s, where he was a leading drum’n’bass DJ under the name Saint Nick. The first-ever release he worked on was the track 7:15 PM included in Gemini EP. This led him to move out of the jungle and into the house, and record two great, edgy EPs for SSR: The 1000 EP and Motion/Transition. He went on to record an album and four EPs on Carl Craig’s Planet E, and EPs for labels such as Soma Quality Recordings, Tactile Music, Playhouse, Paper Recordings and Moodmusic. The SSR EPs contains all eight Common Factor tracks released in 1996 and 1998 by SSR
