Nico Mansy is Mophonics' only Belgian composer. He is the son of two opera singers, though he himself sings only very rarely. Nico is a classically trained multi instrumentalist composer, a master of many genres, but prior to joining forces with Mopho, he played keys for the industrial rock outfit Split Second, and is a longtime collaborator with Aussie crooner Hugo Race. His dry sense of humor and poor command of the english language often makes for exciting conference calls. Nico is a fantastic whistler.
