The results are in and (We Are) Nexus has done it again! The EDM powerhouse continues to reach new heights during their second week on the Billboard Dance/Club Play Chart securing the #32 position, an 11 spot jump from their last week debut at #42.
Nick Gunn and Carmen Rainier, the duo behind (We Are) Nexus, are seeing their hard work manifest into success through significant radio play and the positioning of their single “It Feels So Good” on highly regarded charts such as iTunes Dance Top 100 & Billboard’s Dance/Club Play. Gunn and Rainier have certainly been working around the clock, day in and day out, to build on their initial concept of Nexus making it a full-blown EDM machine. Without the help of some vital industry resources that help breathe life into Nexus every day, the EDM act acknowledge having this support helps afford them the promising path they find themselves on today.
Shotgunn Productions is the backbone and label entity behind (We Are) Nexus. The studio and office, located in the west loop of downtown Chicago, has a team that works every day with Nexus to manage, promote and build upon the image that Gunn and Rainier share. Shotgunn released the “It Feels So Good” EP, which has acted as a catalyst for positive exposure of Nexus. “We are very fortunate that Nick has had an extensive past in label operations and it has helped us tremendously with setting up everything Nexus. I have learned so much about how to operate effectively in the music business and I love being able to control our destiny,” says Rainer.
Next Music Group, (We Are) Nexus’ Club Promoters, work in tandem with Shotgunn Productions to promote the sound of Nexus to the club scene, on the charts and to the ears of dance music enthusiasts around the globe. Next Music Group founders Bob Ketcher, Ray Chatters and Steve Cunningham have made a distinct imprint on the music industry promoting pop & EDM visionaries such as Christina Aguilera, Emile Sande and Avicii. With the initial simple intention of creating a DJ pool for DJs, Next has since turned into a promotional powerhouse for the top budding and defined artists in the music industry.
Bob Ketcher and the Next team have been a vital component in the introduction and explosive growth of (We Are) Nexus within the dance music community. Nexus’ single, “It Feels So Good” was remixed by six highly accomplished and established DJs handpicked by Ketcher and the Next team. The “It Feels So Good” (Flatdisk Electro Mix), in particular, is the Nexus’ single that has graced the Billboard and iTunes charts. Next Music Group continues to promote (We Are) Nexus by managing all Billboard, club and radio promotions of the single, “It Feels So Good” with tremendous efficiency and focus. Ketcher and his team have provided the launch pad for (We Are) Nexus enabling the duo to skyrocket within the EDM scene.
