An Exclusive Mix by The Nextmen for The Addict Clothing Co™ "Dom Search and Brad Baloo, better known as The Nextmen are widely regarded as the two most indispensable ingredients for a blazing party. Straight outta Cambridge, the duo who now reside in the dark depths of bustling north London, are out to make a change and turn some heads as they go about re-shaping their musical direction and winning over eclectic music heads throughout the UK and world with their unmistakeable signature sound. Having released two critically acclaimed albums 'Amongst the Madness' and 'Get Over It' on Scenario Records, dozens of sought after, almost cult status mixtape releases, and countless bootlegs, 7's and 12" singles, 2006 looks set be the duos best year to date. Influenced by 70's folk, jazz and rock, plus their long time love affair with reggae music, Dom and Brad have trodden a long and winding path to success, gathering fans across the world and gaining support, acclaim and respect from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Zane Lowe, DJ Yoda, Roots Manuva, DJ Food, Tim Westwood and the late great John Peel."
