For the first time in its history Empathy is on a Bank Holiday so we think its special and no doubt you will too. For the occasion we welcome for the first time ever Omid 16b will be gracing the booth at Bristol's best club Native.

Omid16B lives for music. A true talent on the underground scene, cutting edge dance music is like oxygen for Omid Nourizadeh. A DJ, producer and label owner of Alola, Disclosure and Sexonwax Records, hes spreading his passion worldwide - from the UK to the USA, from Europe to Asia and Australia.
Fans range from Sasha to Tenaglia, François K to Morales and from Digweed to Danny Howells. Equally important to Omid are his fans on the dance floor. And he turns them on with superb sets that twist and turn from sexy tribal house through to dark, emotive techno - each set morphing to bring out the best in the crowd.
Omid laid the foundations for his own career path and set up Alola Records in 1994. Under his O.R.N moniker, his stunning Snow track was picked up by BMG Deconstruction and Omids production talents were snapped up by Eye Q, signing his debut album Sounds From Another Room (1998). This album was met with critical acclaim and spawned the hit single Water Ride. Another album followed as $16 Million Dollar Man on Under The Counter before How To Live 100 Years in 2002 on the respected Hooj Choons label and not to forget a mix compilation for his own label Alola Everything all of them every year (2002).
The records I make are pretty spiritual. I try and absorb my feelings. Omid16B
The singles came thick and fast - but quality has always been the name of the game. To date, Omid has remixed great artists from The Cure, Gus Gus, John Creamer and Danny Howells to Halo Varga, Morel, François Kervorkian and Pete Moss. But once again its Omids skills that come to the force.
Some DJs and producers have their finger on the pulse - Omid16B is the pulse. Music runs through his veins. Lesley Wright, Editor, DJmag
Having produced and remixed for many labels, he is also the front man of his band The Idiots who have released several singles on Sexonwax and have remixed for other labels as Renaissance and artists as Danny Howells.
This year he got busy getting creative with The Ends Mr C, mixed the first in a series cover mount CD give a ways for DJ magazine, called Face Off, and released That Look on Sexonwax, with vocals by Mr.C
As a co-operation between his label Sexonwax and Deeper Substance records, a new name in the club scene is born: SOS (SexOnSubstance). A concept for good and quality music, together with friends Demi and Desyn Masiello they are conquering the world, starting with their London boat parties and Ibiza residencies.
Further for 2006 there was a 3 hour SOS - Essential Mix on BBC radio 1 on March the 25th and 26th and putting the finishing touches on his third artist album, to be released late 2007 .
The dance scene wouldnt be what it is today without the commitment and passion of people like Omid16B. Whether its creating dance floor destroyers or rocking each and every party, Omid16B is the heart and soul of the underground.
