Also, we will be heading to EU for our DTW tour in March with the 1st show in London on the 10th, so keep an eye out for that.

Valentine's Day Mix

SNDWVS is a 20 year old producer/DJ from the heart of Utrecht, The Netherlands. Coming from a city heavily influenced by street culture, he makes sure to deliver a sound that represents where he comes from and what he's influenced by. This directly reflects on his diverse sound, making his music a mixture of things. 

"With this mix I made a collection of what I would normally play out in the club. It's got a lot of different music in it but I tried to build it up in a way where it would sort of make sense. 
After all, I just want people to have a good time and I think this mix suits that purpose well." 

Enjoy! @Sndwvs

Started alot more uptempo this time with an unreleased banger from our very own fzpz, before moving into some More // Night, starRo and Romare. Slid back into my favourite 90-100 bpm range in the middle of the mix just cuz flips are always fun and necessary. ;)

Hope you enjoy the selections wherever ur tuning in from.

N 30 #8

Just came back from our showcases in Shanghai and Beijing, and I am feeling super invigorated. Being able to converse in Mandarin with Howie Lee and the Do Hits! crew certainly brought us closer together, and we are currently planning a quarterly residency with them in Beijing - Keep an eye out for that, but in the meantime, soak up the latest IN 30. Slightly rough around the edges in certain segments, but hey there's the beauty of improvisation. I hope you enjoy the selections nonetheless.

2nd Son - Me And The Homies

Canada's music has always been robust, but in recent years it has leapt to the forefront with different artists making their mark in respective circles and setting certain standards. We hit Toronto this time, and cast the spotlight on 2nd Son, an electronic music producer and multi-instrumentalist. His debut EP entitled First Light (2015) highlights a unique future-gazing, science-fiction infused pedigree of electronic soul, pushing the sonics of beat music into the cosmic landscape. Since producing the Strange Creature EP in 2014, and subsequent singles with longtime collaborator and fellow RBMA Bass Camp alumni  a l l i e , the two were nominated for the SOCAN Songwriting Prize and made debut performances at NXNE, Manifesto, CMJ and M for Montreal. 

2nd Son's home studio has always been a meeting place for like-minded musicians, and 'Me and my homies' was a track that was conceived together with Emdee, a long time music collector and gifted musician. The two recorded the first two sections with a palette of funky synth sounds, wah wah guitars, and percussion overdubs. Months later, another musician Rennie B. Williams (from Antigua)dropped in the studio, and started to lay his rhodes magic in the end section, and with 2nd Son finally piecing it all together, the result is a super groovy treat, infused with elements of hip-hop, soul, and jazz funk - the perfect soundtrack to the start of your day.

IN 30 #9

The rainy weather in tropical Singapore got me in the zone this morning, and I blended a few of my recent favs together in the 9th edition of the #IN30 series. Kicked off with a really smooth joint by our artist silo, before travelling into some Aso, Falcxne, vincentleone and venturing deeper into the afro territories. Just had to finish the mix with a wicked Groovemen spot rendtiton of bell biv devoe's poison - you guys need to check him OUT.

Enjoy the frequencies, and thanks for vibing with the Funk B 1X

In between album recordings, mixing and traveling between old and new homes, Bluestaeb and S. Fidelity get together on this new 2 track EP called "Sidekicks". Recorded during two nights at their joint studio in Berlin Wedding, it displays the ambition to step out of the box of regular beat making and create original music.

Finally, i had the time to whip up the 10th edition of the IN 30 mix series. I have been on the road quite a bit lately, and most recently, linked up with Howie Lee and played our debut DTW showcase in Taipei. It's been real connecting with the Do Hits crew, and we are strengthening the ties in the Asian region.
There has been tremendous growth with DTW, and it's inspiring to see more and more like-minded folks coming together and creating in unison.

The latest mix kicked off with a heavy dose of house cuts before travelling across to the beat territories. So kick back, take out the cans and I hope you enjoy the selections. Also, IN 30 will soon be streaming out of a certain platform in NYC, but more of that later. :)

< "Dean Chew is setting the standards in Singapore" - Gilles Peterson >

Earning praises from a worldwide range of selectors that include the likes of Dam-Funk, Tama Sumo, San-Soda, Mike Huckaby, Jamie XX and 2562, Dean aka the Funk Bast*rd (one half of the Cosa nostra duo and co-founder of Singapore-based label Darker Than Wax) has been tirelessly pushing and promoting an alternative expression of leftfield music through his widely eclectic and genre-bending sets. Being the main A+R and creative mastermind 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.

His musical selection, which traverses between a huge variety of musical genres like deep jazz, soul, funk, boogie, brazilian grooves, house, techno, breaks, hip hop and bass numbers have left many indelible marks on the dancefloors.

It’s no surprise then that he has played alongside some of the world’s finest like Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Kyle Hall, Lefto, Recloose, Gerd Janson, Basic Soul Unit, Linkwood, Norman Jay, Souleance, Pearson Sound, Krystal Klear, Tiger and Woods, Mike Huckaby, Seven Davis Jnr and most notably, warmed up for Dj Ez, Fourtet and Dam Funk.
His sets have also taken him around the world, playing most recently at Dimensions Festival in Croatia, various cities in Europe, Asia, and Brazil. In 2016, Funk B was also invited on BBC 1XTRA, Rinse RM, Radar Radio, and swung through the legendary Brownswood basement of Gilles Peterson with a 2-hour exclusive Worldwide FM mix. He is also a regular presenter on Gilles' Worldwide Fm, transmitting good vibes every 3rd Tuesday of the month.

Dean Chew always has something in the box that surprises. Just open those ears.
