Rudee Nik’s provenance in the entertainment industry runs back to early 2000’s, deep into Toronto’s house-music scene — and it all started with the desire to listen to quality music outside of what was on the mainstream radio. He then discovered electronic music through late-night pirate radio shows, emerging Toronto underground venues, and inspiring artists in the striving rave.

‍

DJ’ing and hosting naturally led him to the nightclub business, where he has held and operated several nightclubs in Toronto, to his most current and well established venture: Vertigo, a late-night destination, as chief operator and resident DJ.

Rudee Nik has performed at the foremost venues & events in Toronto, and internationally alongside some of the worlds most renowned artists such as Lil Louis, Deep Dish, Danny Tenaglia, Camelphat, Jamie Jones, Carl Craig, DJ Harvey, and a 3 hour B2B with Green Velvet. His eclectic yet deep underground sound has flowed into notable festivals such as Electric Island and across the globe to The BPM Festival, The 5th Element Festival as well as shows in South America and beyond.
