D.O.S.T. - Nobody

Originally from South Africa, Dylan spent most of his adolescence growing up on the Sunshine Coast in Australia. After spending a lot of weekends and free time down by the beach with his family and friends, he became very familiar with the beach vibe and culture that became a part of his everyday life and is now one of the driving forces behind his company and DJ name Yewplay. 

In 2010, Dylan decided it was time to step into a new side of the hospitality industry and started to learn about event management and DJing. With outdoor events being his favorite, he followed the music and event industry down the path of the house music scene which lead him to a mix of outdoor events like beach, pool and boat parties alone side club/lounge and restaurant gigs. With doing a combination of DJing and Event planning, he was able to create the beachie vibe and sound that flowed smoothly together. With this style feeling the most natural to Dylan it has helped him to create a vision that he is still living and working hard on presently. 

After started his Dj career in his home town of Mooloolaba, Dylan moved to Vancouver where he based himself for the next 5 years. Between a mix of bartending and management jobs, Dylan spent time on the side DJing each week, organizing specialty events and boat parties and also planned events in Miami and Cabo, Mexico each year. During this time he has become familiar with areas such as promotions, marketing, artist bookings and brand development. The industry has also given him the understanding of different music venues and genres and how to read the crowd to determine which music to play and what will create a positive experience for the people in the room. 

During the last few years, Dylan has been based in the USA and kept himself very busy. During this time he has DJed in cities like LA, San Francisco, Miami, Denvor and NYC. He created the event Sunset Sounds Cruise with a good friend that takes place on Clearwater Beach. It’s a full day of events with starting on the rooftop over looking the water, then a 3 hour sunset boat party finished with a beach party at the well known Shepards Beach Reaort. The event has sold out the last 4 times and Dylan and Andrew have taken the event from 150 people to now preparing for 600 with the help of bigger boat. During this time he also got booked to do a two week tour in India where he DJed 5 different events in 5 different cities. Being an international traveler, Dylan has thourly enjoyed getting the chance to travel and DJ in different locations.

This year in 2017, being based in Tampa, Florida, Dylan decided to focus full time on music and developing himself as an artist along side organizing a few annual events. Since starting in February, Dylan has been able to pick up 4 weekly residency's playing at Ciccio Water, The Lodge and Green Lemon and dedicates his weekends to working corportare events and private parties. He has also started an annual tour called Heart+Beats Tour that takes place 3 times a year, one being in Florida, USA, one in Cabo, Mexico and the other in Vancouver, Canada. It’s a 3 day tour with nightly events and the days spent giving back to the local community through outreach work and fund raiser events. 

Now working at night, Dylan has had the chance to spend time during the week to help out organizations like the Boys and Girls Club of Tampa put a music program together and has also become a board of director for the charity group Where Love Grows which helps teach kids how to cook and tackle childhood hunger. 

With a lot of positive things happening for Dylan, he has been very happy with his decision to focus full time on the music industry.  He looks forward to now incorporating music production into his schedule and to continue growing as an artist and DJing in different locations.

DJ BASTART went solo in the autumn of 2007. 
Since 1994, Alexey Orlov – otherwise known as BASTART - participated in various alternative electronic and hip hop projects in the city of Kaliningrad. He was born in the city of Koenigsberg, which was previously in East Prussia and is now known as Kaliningrad in the Russian Federation. Alexey has been brought up adsorbing the energy produced by the mixtures of cultures from east Europe, Russia and Prussia. Since his early years, he has observed and been influenced by both individuals and their cultural musical heritages and so developed his own unique style. Experimenting in various styles with modern electronic music, he realised the existing frameworks did not allow for his expression  so he created his own style, working and traveling outside Russia, acquiring new knowledge and developing his own unique style. He has created essentially new sounds, ignoring previously set rules and stereotypes.

At present then, DJ BASTART  is a mix of all the genres and styles from Alexey’s own heritage and experiences. It is an experiment using a "cocktail" effect, which the majority of people would not even contemplate. His desire is to achieve a live sound on each track with the least use of synthetic or digital tools. Project DJ BASTART is a project of only one person - the composer and beat maker, DJ. Not subscribing to the "club" world, Alexey, as DJ BASTART, prefers to play his music using turntables, improvising continuously with compiled tracks and those of individual instruments, creating a very unique blend of sound unrivalled to other studio productions.


Проект DJ BASTART был создан осенью 2007 года. Начиная с 1994 года, Алексей Орлов - а.к.а. BASTART - участвовал в различных альтернативных электронных и hip hop проектах города Калининграда. Проект DJ BASTART - это смесь всех направлений и стилей, которые автору кажутся достойными и заслуживающими наиболее пристального внимания на данном этапе его творчества,такие как Trip Hop, Drum&Bass, Acid Jazz, Indietronica и т.д. Смесь, несущая в себе этнический и традиционный оттенок мест, где были взяты настроения, определяющие концепцию треков. Это эксперимент по приготовлению "коктейля", ингредиенты которого в принципе большинство людей предпочитают не смешивать. 
Это желание добиться "живого" концертного звучания каждого трека 
с наименьшим внедрением синтетики цифровых инструментов.
Проект DJ BASTART это проект одного человека - композитора, битмейкера , ди джея. Не являясь представителем "клубного" мира современного мегаполиса и не питая особенной любви к этой культуре, Алексей, тем не менее, подписывается как DJ BASTART, так как предпочитает играть свои произведения, используя проигрыватели, импровизируя с рисунками треков и минусов, предавая им отличное от студийного звучание.
