Nic Endo is a musician of the Digital Hardcore Recordings label. Born on January 7, 1976 in Texas, she is of German (paternal) and Japanese (maternal) descent. She is trained in classical and jazz music, both of which largely influence her electronic music. Endo is a member of the Berlin-based digital hardcore band Atari Teenage Riot, for which she handles the music as well as the equipment (when playing live). Along with fellow ATR member Hanin Elias, Nic Endo has set up the DHR label Fatal, which pushes for more females to become active in electronic music, which, like most music, is dominated by males.

Endo's jazz background has led her to an improvisational approach to electronic music, believing that "the future of electronic music lies in the human unpredictability". Among her jazz influences are free jazz artists Sun Ra, Herbie Hancock, James White and Alice Coltrane.
