BBC Radio 1 DJ Nihal is collaborating with the Jack Morton team on the soundtrack that will accompany the display. He will also be mixing music live for the crowds along the river in the build up to midnight. The event is broadcast live to millions of viewers by the BBC.
The event will mark the opening of a momentous year for London.
"As we begin one of the most extraordinary and exciting years in our great city's history, the sky will light up with a dazzling display of pyrotechnic magic," said Mayor of London Boris Johnson. "From the magic of the Games, to the Diamond Jubilee, to the London 2012 Festival, there will be world-class events in every corner of the capital, to create a summer like no other."
Jack Morton executive producer Jim Donald said: "We are honoured to have the opportunity to help showcase London to the world at the beginning of one of the most significant years in the capital’s history."
