Dada Nada

Dada Nada - House Music and Hip House act which served as the moniker for Robert Ozn after the breakup of New York art rock act EBN-OZN, an MTV darling in the mid 80s. Dada Nada had two American Billboard Top 5 Club records in 1989 and 1990: Haunted House and Deep Love, plus additional charted records in Europe particularly in the UK: GIve It All You Got, The Good Thing. Distribution: One Voice Records North America (a start up indie label owned by Ozn) and Polydor/Polygram UK/International. Producers, mixers and writers that worked with the act: Frankie Knuckles & David Morales, Mike "Hitman" Wilson, Bad Boy Bill, Steve Wight and Bob Greenberg. Dada Nada/Robert Ozn were credited with the first white House hit in the US, Haunted House (MTV News). In particular Dada Nada was recognized for its combination of white rap and sung vocals over House tracks and its integration of Deep House and Acid House (the precursor to Techno and Electronica) into a pop songwriting format.

Dada Nada toured the US in 1990 and suffered a gang related shooting in the audience during a performance in Chicago. Robert Ozn left the music business shortly thereafter.

He went into the film industry as a producer/screenwriter and lives in Rio de Janeiro and Los Angeles.
