"I walked into triple j as a work experience kid at 19 and literally worked every job right up until House Party and Mix Up Exclusives."
Producer, DJ and triple j House Party host for five years, Nina Las Vegas (that is, Nina Elizabeth Agzarian) is waving farewell to the radio station as she launches her very own record label and continues on her quest to conquer the world.
More recently, she was the host of dance music program Mix Up Exclusives on triple j, helping spark the careers of now-household names Flume, Flight Facilities and Alison Wonderland. Now, Agzarian is riding the success wave to focus on her DJ career and launch of NLV Records, where her own record will be dropping, along with some other signings.
She says, "For the past decade triple j, the Australian club scene, supporting local artists and pioneering new electronic music has been my life. I walked into triple j as a work experience kid at 19 and literally worked every job right up until House Party and Mix Up Exclusives.
"Thank you to triple j for the incredible experience and especially to the triple j listeners for listening to my first triple j mixtapes, calling in to House Party, coming to House Party gigs and texting in when I play something crazy on Mix Up Exclusives."
