One+One sees two of todays most exciting, talented and revered artists join forces as they attempt to create a piece of dance music history.
Under the One+One banner the duo has struck a deal with Ministry of Sound Recordings for a unique album. A studio mix that is representative of what you will hear in the forthcoming shows, it features bespoke productions by James and Nic including collaborations in the form of No Pressure and Rover. Both of which are a seamless meeting of Jamess futuristic style and Nics acid-house vibe. No Pressure/Rover will be released as a double A side single on label One+One - an outlet set up specifically for their single releases. The album spans all genres of electronica with a massive dose of all the bleeps, squeaks, stabs, synths, bass and melodies that James and Nic pioneer week in week out on the worlds dance-floors.
Look out for personal re-edits and mash-ups including the Alcatraz classic Give me Luv and Paul Woolfords massive Erotic Discourse which, like the rest of this Long Player, has been skilfully crafted together to one very pleasing result. Put it on and turn it up

James Zabiela and Nic Fanciulli first struck up a friendship during gigs in Asia in 2005. Their mutual understanding of each others music coupled with the fact they had fun and got into all sorts of mischief together made them inseparable. Throughout 2006 the pair experimented playing back2back, including New Years Day in Nics hometown of Maidstone, the sunnier climes of Miamis WMC at Cafeteria and We Love Space, Ibiza. All received rave reviews (no pun intended) and it was proof indeed JZ and Nic needed to take this idea further and so One+One is born.
The concept will encompass a world tour, starting at Miamis WMC 2007 with a One+One launch party. Then they'll be hitting the UK club scene with 9 dates before jetting back to do the USA leg. This will see the pair touring like rock stars as they get aboard a tour bus and gig their way around the country covering the length and breadth of America with up to five gigs a week. Following this is a month in Asia and Australia trailed by a full 3 months in Europe centred around Ibizas summer season which includes a rather special and exclusive One+One residency at We Love...Space. After their stellar Space performances in the summer of 2006 the residency for 2007 seemed the only logical option for people at We Love Towers. James and Nic will play back2back together on every One+One show. Itll be a multiple CD deck and laptop extravaganza of layering music, bending sounds and twisting beats to one mind-blowing effect.
James comments "Even though Nic and I are relatively young DJs compared to most we've been touring heavily on our own for a few years now. So when we did a quick tour of Australia and Asia last year we decided that it's much more fun to go with someone else!
"I always wanted more hands in the DJ Booth and now I have them, we'll be using the Q2 Dual DJ which will allow us to independently cue things as well as play with FX units, Laptops and CDJs of course."
Nic adds "We both started off with the same musical background and as time went on we developed our own styles. When we put them together it works well and we seem to compliment each other musically.
Normally when making an album I panic about getting things done but this has been a totally different process. I've really enjoyed it; James and I bounce off each other and help one another out if the other is struggling. Im so looking forward to getting this tour on the road."
