Substitution (Live 8.9.12)

Starting his DJ career in 2002 in Australia, cutting his teeth in a number of venues, NWW decided to move to Japan in 2007. When he was finally exposed to the underground House music scene in Tokyo, his life was transformed as he endeavoured to dig even deeper into dance music. With a passion for the 'roots' of dance music, you can see him play anything from Stevie Wonder to Sister Sledge, The Rolling Stones to Roy Ayers, Dennis Ferrer to Donny Hathaway, mixed with House, Soul, Disco, Hip Hop, Jazz, Rock, etc.

He has played in all of Tokyo's major venues, including to a crowd of over 2500 people in WOMB's main room, ageHa for Defected's 10th Birthday, UNIT supporting Ashley Beedle, La Fabrique supporting his favourite Japanese DJ and one of his biggest influences Toshiyuki Goto and a handful of support sets for huge internationals at the Defected parties at AIR including Dimitri From Paris. But the crowds and parties he loved to play to the most is his own monthly '4 the love' event where he is his most creative, playing a wide range of genres and tempos to an incredible audience.

After some time spent in Germany, which morphed his style, now he lives in Bangkok, Thailand and is looking expand his experience into the Thai night life scene.

I'm a fan of way too many genres of music, but I enjoy dynamic journeys. Join me as I discover all the corners of electronic that excite me.

I'm currently looking for a drummer to work with. If you're a drummer (either finger digital or acoustic), please let me know. I'd be happy to send you my stuff to rerecord the drum tracks and/or collaborate on new stuff.

If you'd like to remix anything, let me know and I'll send you the stems. Sharing is caring!

Been making music since 2008,started off of with a genuine techno vibe that was inspired by video music(tekken n street fighter to name a few)

Frequently make mixed genre music that is consisted of life experience  and the love sounds that are additive to me now.

Looking for artist collabs  on the net if anyones interested thanks.

A reclusive extravert, introvertedly expressive, so secure with my strangle hold on letting go...

This is a place for me to prematurely venerate auditory anthropological-existential escape-complex actualizations and excrete backed up crap I've been picking apart to ("god"-willing) inspire curiosity and maybe collaborations with other life forms...hmu if ur down
