When it comes to dark dance music, LICK is the name on everyone’s lips.

This swiftly rising artist is blowing up right now and he’s doing it the right way, through extreme hard work and dedication to his craft. Listen to any of LICK’s productions — his Deadbeats-released single “Push” and Revolt EP for starters — and it’s easy to hear this high-caliber talent has loads of potential. He’s only just getting started.

Though his sound is immaculate, LICK rocks a humbled mindset. It’s not about ego or money or fame — it’s about the music. This is a down-to-earth dude with larger-than-life appeal. Find him thriving in dimmed clubs like The Grasshopper Underground in Detroit, throwing down his unique breed of midtempo bangers for anyone and everyone with a hunger to listen.

As he powers forward on his path to success, he pauses for just a moment to answer a few questions for Nightenjin. This is LICK. This is his Dark Vibe Order.
