Nico and I go way back and I can say with the utmost surety that he is one of the best composers I know. Today we talk about his journey as an artist and what makes him tick. He is a multimedia composer with accolades aplenty but more so, plenty of heart in his music. Please enjoy my discussion with Nico, a true Maverick.
