No. 14 is all about happy vibrations, or 'sunshine' music as I like to call it.

Shades of jazz-funk, smoky hip-hop beats, psychedelic tropical sounds, slo-mo chuggers, boogie and house vibes all sliced up and packed into 30 mins, so I hope this new mix puts that smile on your face wherever you are cuz after all, music is the best medicine. 
Stay positive and aware in these rather testing times.

Lyrics:

Impossible

Impossible
Impossible
Life is a trip I know
But nothing is impossible

I believe that
life Is a trip 
that we all have to ride
as long you don’t hide
everything
everything will be alright

But I can’t control myself
as long as I 
don’t stay true to myself
I would love to go wild on this is
trip
I wanna loose myself

Last friday @fredfades was spinning at Roxy Club in Cologne together with his friend Chris from the Topic Drift record store. On saturday they played live at Dublab.de in Nippes, Cologne. Fred started off with some rare 7" soul records, went into some heavy deep house business, then he ended out his set with some rare boogie in the end.

Enjoy!

< "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.
