The Love international festival always fills my heart with joy as it is proof that paradise on earth is within reach.

It has been a great pleasure to play the legendary Beach stage and bring you the recording of this musical journey filled with a lot of personal classics travelling from dubby lovers rock, disco, electro-funk and street soul to more trippy and deep house dubs.

Hope you can feel the breeze, the colors, the smiles and the love :)

LOVE INJECTION with KEVIN OSHA @ The Lot Radio 11-16-2024

Juan “Jon Jon” Hernandez grew up in Brooklyn, NY in an era that was rich for music, and the arts and today is referred to by many notables as a DJ’s DJ. His introduction to New York nightlife would change his perception of music and the art of DJing. His education began at Starship, Inferno, Paradise Garage, The Loft, Zanzibar, Area, Danceteria, Save The Robots, The World, The Saint, and the DJs there would leave an indelible mark on him.

In 1982, Jon began working at Downstairs Records where he became integral in the promotion of new records that hit the dance floors of NYC. In 1984, Jon was given the opportunity to mix the Dub Version of “No Favors” by Temper for MCA Records. “No Favors” hit number one on the Billboard “Hot Dance/Club Play” and would remain there for seven weeks. Jon went on to take on jobs at The Ozone Layer, where he did lights and would open and fill in for DJ/record producer David Morales; Better Days Club, alongside legendary DJ/Record Producer Bruce Forest; Heartthrobs Nightclub (formerly known as The Fun House) where he DJ’d; and at the original Sound Factory (opened in 1989 by Manhattan nightlife maven Christina Visca, with DJ Junior Vasquez, Richard Grant & Phil Smith) where he worked lights.

Although his dedication and love for this scene often finds him on a dance floor, Jon remains a driving force behind the scenes where he works in promoting the music he loves, and as support staff for Danny Krivit and Benny Soto’s monthly 718 Sessions parties.

London & Liverpool duo Dual Monitor join our series with a stunning showcase of their hypnotic and heavyweight sound, a recipe they’ve all but perfected through releases on SPE:C, Hardline, Rinse and so many more to come. A full-spectrum mixture of their wide ranging influences builds to eye-watering effect, a parallax vision of dynamic rhythms and deepest hues, comprising work from so many label favorites and a hefty dose of unreleased material from the duo. Thanks Fliss & Zebb!

STORE MIX 121 - STONE ISLAND SOUND: LUXE

The 17th Virtual Utopia update has been created by Mexico-based sonic scientist Gerhard (@esenciamx) - A DJ  who’s sound has been immersed in a positive floating ambience that has always been a great inspiration to us here at the Dream Software corporation. Also known for being the head engineer of the Escensia blog and mix series- a constant emission of quality sine-wave based content with a trademark euphoric infusion.

A two-hour audible offering illustrating scenes of a utopian future. An existence imbued with hope and optimism where cooling airs and a warming sun remind us of the balance needed to exist in harmony here. Comforting pads and ethereal softness drift amongst the various genres and tempos that really make this mix a beautiful sonic landscape. We hope you enjoy it.

Many thanks Gerhard for contributing to the mix series <3

A SPACESHIP Radio Show with Alex Traska - Intergalactic Deep House Music - October 2025

Ever since the early formative years of immersing himself in raves and secret house parties during his uni years in Australia, Dean Chew aka Funk Bast*rd has been on the musical journey as for long as he can remember. He has cut his teeth playing in the legendary Zouk club / Velvet Underground in Singapore since the early 2010s and has grown a robust community around his Darker Than Wax parties and activations around the island. Together with co-founder Kaye, the duo have been tirelessly pushing and promoting an alternative expression of leftfield music through the label, as well as recruiting like-minded souls to join in their cause. 

Being the main A+R and creative mind behind DTW, the label has flourished tremendously over the past 5 years, cementing its place as one of the go-to labels out of South East Asia. During this period, Dean has also ventured further afield, establishing links internationally and regionally, and played most recently at We Out Here festival in the UK, HÖR radio, Le Sucre in Lyon, Potatohead Bali, Dimensions Festival in Croatia, various cities in Europe, Asia, and Brazil.

In 2016, he was also invited on Jamz Supernova’s BBC 1XTRA show to do a special label showcase, Rinse RM, and swung through the legendary Brownswood basement of Gilles Peterson for a 2-hour exclusive Worldwide FM mix. His extensive musical knowledge and tight mixing skills has earned him a regular spot on the station, and has proven to be one of the most trusted selectors and Djs  to have emerged from the South East Asian circuit.

It’s no surprise then that he has played alongside and supported some of the world’s finest like Benji B, Kyle Hall, Lefto, HAAI, Dreamcast Moe, Gerd Janson, Basic Soul Unit, Linkwood, Norman Jay, Souleance, Pearson Sound, Krystal Klear, Tiger and Woods, the late great Mike Huckaby, Seven Davis Jnr, Dj Ez, Fourtet and Dam Funk. 

During the lockdown in Singapore, Dean has also worked on 2 volumes of the successful 12” series “Bodyclock” which focuses on lesser known artists in the house, boogie and deep techno realms. The series have garnered support from the likes of Resident Advisor, Bandcamp Weekly, BBC Radio 6 and many more. More recently, he has also conceptualised his own venue, and through 2 years of planning and hard work, Dean finally opened Offtrack - a music-centric bar and restaurant in Singapore. The bar in a short span of a year, has not only secured a 50 best discovery list mention, but is also fast becoming known as an essential beacon for the community and traveling selectors to play when they visit Singapore. 
Constantly evolving and engaging through the power of music is what defines Dean Chew as an artist and most importantly as a human being.

We're starting off the Coloring Lessons Mix Series a little differently in the wake of our current global situation. We urge ya’ll to donate if you can during this hard time.

Thank ya’ll for your support- stay positive, stay safe, and tap in.

Normally, we'll have the artists venmo / paypal / cash app links below, but musclecars are choosing to have donations from this mix sent over to our two brooklyn home bases', nowadays & mood ring, who are currently closed and also taking a hit (staff included) during this time. Donations here will be distributed to their staff, and keeping these community institutions alive. Any little bit helps!
