N3RD

Manchester-born and bred White N3rd (Scott Wild) started producing dance music in his bedroom studio while studying at Manchester City College. Inspired by mid-'90s hip-hop and the U.K. rave scene, Wild built a career producing, composing, and writing for artists such as M.O., MNEK, and Diplo, and in 2014 formed the DJ collective LuvBug with Marvin Humes and JKAY. With the LuvBug singles Resonance and Revive (Say Something) faring well on the U.K. charts, Wild became even more sought after as a producer, and in 2015 co-wrote and produced Craig David's "When the Bassline Drops." In 2016 Wild branched out on his own with the debut track "That Thing," while also signing to Ministry of Sound. ~ Rich Wilson
