Underground Revival is an entity founded in the truest traditions of Dance Music from yesterday, today and the future.  DJ Josh Thomas's background includes his youthful immersion in music of the Caribbean, and extensive experience watching classics being built from the ground up. DJ Kwab has cultivated a lifelong study of African Dance and music, and has a deeply rooted understanding of Jazz and Soca, among other styles.  Together, this unique tandem of DJ’s possess a fused playing style and talent for production that ranges from the international underground to the global mainstream.

As the name implies, Underground Revival was born of an overwhelming call to help return dance music and the New York club scene to its roots: the broad spectrum of underground dance music – including Afrobeat?, Jazz / Nu-Jazz?, and, other styles – all being heard under the same roof in one night.

Josh and Kwab have been able to expand their quest for revival beyond the trappings of their local scene.  Their monthly residency, at the famed Oasis Party in Montreal, has become a place where lovers of all dance music come to sweat uninhibitedly. In addition to landmark New York clubs and parties such as Caviar Studios, Together in Spirit, the monthly House-Dance-Conference and Turntables on the Hudson, they have DJ’d on NY radio, numerous internet mix-shows,  and at some of the most talked about venues in Washington DC, Montreal QC (Salon Daomé, Academy, Delima, Stereo Bar, La Panthère Noire) and California among many other places.

Not satisfied with only playing the music they love, Underground Revival has taken on producing and remixing tracks to further their goal of expanding the boundaries of dance music.  This endeavor includes works with inspired artists like Les Nubians, Amma Whatt, Aleijuan Afuraka, Tantra Zawadi and more soon to come.

Underground Revival unifies to bring you an aggressive, rare blend of eclectic music that makes you move, with a combination of classic and experimental styles that truly defy description.
Get a room, fill it with open-minded people, and let Josh and Kwab do what they do best.

You won't soon forget how their music becomes a part of you.

Ron Trent Official SoundCloud

DJ/Producer Ron Trent, rooted in the dance music world for over 29 years, is largely regarded for producing and playing an eclectic range of music. Raised in Chicago's early underground music scene in the 1980s, which transitioned from Disco into House.

A perennial presence in music since the early 90's, Ron Trent is considered to be one of the architects of the Chicago music scene. He began the journey through studying and collecting records from a young age, taking cues from his father who ran a record pool in the late 70's. This upbringing provided the strong foundations which not only enabled him to become a respected DJ in his early teens, but also gave him the confidence to embark on his own productions in the mid 80s, culminating in his first release, the highly recognized and international acclaimed classic "Altered States", in 1990.

Music Producer / Composer / Mix & Mastering Engineer / Artist & Record Label Owner.
