- Italian production team by Daniele Contrini (aka Shield), who is also A&R and label manger of Rebirth Records, and Cristiano Massera, talented musician, composer and sound engeneer.Born in the summer of 2004, the NUfrequency project is a collaboration between Shield and Cristiano Massera and Alessandro Ripamonti. Their debut single “808 (Why Oh Why)”, a fine combination of phat bass, tasty guitar hooks and a dreamy breakdown, seen the big support from all the top jocks. Pete Tong played it 8 times in his Essential Selection making it an Essential New Tune, and it has been one of the tunes at the Wmc ‘05 . The track, signed to Little Mountain, has been released in Europe in March/April 2005. NUfrequency gave their touch to the Nina Simone classic “Black is the colour of my true love’s hair”, Chemical Brothers “Galvanize”, and Crazy Penis “Cruising”, receiving support from Chris Coco and Rob Da Bank in the Blue Room and Eddie Temple Morris. In 2006 Alessandro leaves NUfrequency, and after a long break, in 2007 Shield and Cristiano come back with a new single, “Love Sick”, which features the vocals of Plavka, best known for being the singer behind Jam & Spoon, whose trance-infused pop sound dominated the international charts in the mid 90’s (“Right in the night” was a world-wide number one). Love Sick has been released on Shield’s new label Rebirth in March 2007, alongside hot remixes from Cagedbaby, Tom Novy and Mock & Toof ! NUfrequency are back in 2008 with “Go That Deep”, another taster from their first album. And this is something really special ! It features the beautiful vocals of the legend Shara Nelson, who achieved the success as member of British dance collective and trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack. Shara wrote and sung one of the biggest and most memorable anthems, and the group's biggest hit, "Unfinished Sympathy," and also co-wrote several other songs on their groundbreaking debut album, Blue Lines. Released by Rebirth in March 2008 it received immediately great interest and reactions, supported all year by djs like Laurent Garnier, Ben Watt, Âme, Jazzanova, Pete Tong, Judge Jules, Groove Armada to name a few and considered as one of the best vocal tunes in years. The single has been signed to NRK Records for the Uk market. NUfrequency are working on their first album with important collaborations like Plavka, Ben Onono and Snax among the others.̸http://www.discogs.com/artist/NUfrequency
