Nicole Moudaber takes the 1995 released Basement Boys produced ‘A Feeling’ by Jasper Street Co. on a high octane ride to the modern dance floor.
Now before you all start, we know this is a classic! You’ve got remixes from Spen, Farley & Heller and Lenny Fontana, but, and we say this not lightly, it’s really great to hear this in 2025 and Moudaber has done a very good job bringing a contemporary mix to the table that will work in todays DJ sets. Thirty years is some time and for a whole new generation, this will be a big, big track.
Nicole Moudaber is a trailblazer in the techno and house scene, known for her dark, rolling basslines, hypnotic grooves, and high-energy DJ sets. With roots in the London and Ibiza underground scenes, she made a name for herself with releases on Drumcode, MOOD Records (her own label), and Intec, often pushing a deep, driving, and percussive sound.
Over the years, Moudaber has developed a reputation for blending powerful techno rhythms with tribal, deep house, and even soulful elements. While many recognize her for peak-time warehouse techno anthems, she has never shied away from exploring different textures and influences. ‘A Feeling’ is a prime example of this—a deep and hypnotic house record that fuses gospel energy with her signature production weight.
From the very start, A Feeling locks into a rolling, percussive groove, with crisp hi-hats and a warm, throbbing basslinesetting the foundation. Moudaber keeps things tight and hypnotic, crafting a minimal but driving rhythm that builds intensity with each passing bar. The kick drum lands with precision, giving the track a tech-house meets classic housefeel.
Then comes the magic—Jasper Street Co.’s vocals. Their soaring, gospel-infused delivery is electrifying, bringing a deep emotional weight to the track. Moudaber masterfully teases the vocals in and out of the mix, creating an euphoric tension that feels both timeless and urgent.
The breakdowns are particularly effective, stripping the groove back to just airy pads and vocal refrains before slamming back in with full-force energy. It’s the kind of track that feels just as at home in a sweaty warehouse set at 4 AM as it does on a festival mainstage, thanks to its blend of soulful house warmth and techno-infused drive.
