Jody Wisternoff - the second half of Way Out West at Zeppelin

The dance project Way Out West emerged in 1994. Its ideological inspirer was Nick Warren. The project itself is a unique partnership of talented musicians Nick Warren and Jody Wisternoff, experienced in different music styles - Warren in house, Jody in early d'n'b and techno. By combining elements of these styles, Way Out West started releasing tracks. Their first single was 'Ajare', the main club hit of its time. And after the composition 'The Gift', which made it to the prestigious UK Top 20 chart, Way Out West stood out from many other DJs and projects. Nick Warren - a veteran of the Liverpool club Cream, who collaborated with such collectives as Massive Attack and Smith And Mighty. Jody Wisternoff has proven himself as an excellent producer, making his first recording at the age of 14. In the early 90s, they released two singles under the name 'Echo'. In 1994, the Cream club founder James Barton signed a contract with them on Deconstruction Records. Almost immediately, the successful single 'Ajare' was released, followed by 'Domination', which made Way Out West recognizable in the club scene. Way Out West espouse house and techno, primarily progressive house. After 'The Gift', instead of continuing to write directly for Way Out West, Wisternoff and Warren immersed themselves in working with Dubstar, Fluke, and The Orb as producers, as well as remixing their compositions. The first album by Way Out West titled 'Way Out West' was released with reviews from the dance community as an album filled with a fresh sound that reflects the classic qualities of dream house music, exemplified by the track 'Blue', which became the first single from the album. The next album was 'Intensify'. At present, Way Out West, known for their unique sound rooted in progressive house, continue to perform in England and actively tour. In Russia, Nick Warren and Jody Wisternoff decided to visit one after the other. First, Nick Warren appeared on October 31 at the Halloween 2003 party by Not Zeppelin, and Jody Wisternoff arrived almost a month later, without Warren. The impression of these visits will be equally positive and strictly positive. You can only make sure at Zeppelin!
