Binhex

A pioneer of Victoria and Vancouver’s underground rave scenes, Nicole Goodman started in 1993 as Victoria’s first female ambient DJ. She co-founded Teamlounge, producing countless events across the PNW, including seven iterations of Soundwave. Nicole brought electronic music to Victoria’s airwaves through CFUV FM102 and operated Victoria’s first dedicated electronic music store. After moving to Vancouver, she began her work at CBC: founding CBC Radio 3, CBC Music, and CBC Electronic.

Combining esoteric samples, liquid drones and psychic manipulation, her sets simultaneously nurture and fragment, taking the listener to other worlds, other dimensions, other times – past, present and future – from memories of our childhood to glimpses of our old age. If you find yourself anywhere near her sound system, we recommend you lie down.

Nicole’s location-specific performances in recent years include Wonderment, Biomass at the Bloedel Conservatory, Active / Passive, Crystal Creek, and Sequential Circus, and Quiet City.
