BIO: MixxaLott was first introduced to the art while serving his National Service with the Singapore Armed Forces back in 1987. Along with a few other deejays enlisted together with him, he picked up the know how during their jam sessions in camp and by tagging along with them on their weekend gigs at house parties.

After his Army stint, he was confident enough to go solo, doing loads of house parties where he was spotted by a prominent club owner. He was invited to showcase his talent at a club, where he was offered residency by the owner immediately.

Ever since that fateful day, there was no turning back for DJ MixxaLott. To date, he has held residencies in some of the most prominent clubs here in Singapore, with the likes of Xanadu (Shangri-La), Top Ten (Orchard Towers), Cheeky Monkeys (Mohamed Sultan), Fluid Bar (Far East Square), just to name a few.

Besides holding residencies in Singapore, he has also been invited to perform as a guest deejay at some of Southeast Asia’s high profile clubs including:

Mars in Makati, Philippines (1994- 1996)

Batcave in Jakarta, Indonesia (1999- 2001)

Sari in Bali, Indonesia (2001)

Emporium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (2002- 2006)

Tao in Hanoi, Vietnam (2008)

The highlight of his career came in 2004 when Calvin Klein invited him to be their official DJ at the European launch of CK One. For one and a half months, he played at campaign launches and after-parties in France and London. At one such event, he so impressed the crowd that another event organizer invited him to be the warm-up DJ for The Fugees and the MC Solaar concert in Cannes, France.

On his off days, you can find him spinning as a guest DJ at a party joint or delivering a chill-out set at an easy listening bar.

A veteran of the local clubbing scene, DJ MixxaLott has developed a keen sense of reading the crowd. In addition to delivering tunes to keep the crowd jiving, he will also inject elements to keep them pleasantly surprised, entertained and wanting more.

DJ MixxaLott has honed his skills in various music genres. His forte in music would include 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s retro, Top 40s, various genres of House Music, Latino flavours, R’n’B and Hip Hop. And while you’re reading this, he is most probably delving in new soundscapes and experimenting with new genres.

Much like songbird Edith Piaf, Madeleine Peyroux spent her teenage years busking the busy streets of Paris. Just like the ‘little sparrow’, Madeleine befriended the city’s street musicians and made its Latin quarter her first performing stage. Years later, Peyroux would cite iconic Piaf as an influence on her music and record a rendition of the classic La Vie En Rose, soulfully capturing the tune’s romanticism and melancholy.
 
Born in Athens, Georgia in 1974, Madeleine “grew up in a house filled with music” and from an early age “instinctively realised music’s soothing power” but it was her teenage years in the French capital that turned the childhood notion into an all-consuming vocation for life.

Young Madeleine moved to Paris with her mother in 1987 following her parents divorce. “To soothe me during the upheaval”, she recalls, “I was given a guitar and took to playing in the streets almost immediately.”

Thirty years after her formative busking days Peyroux is the proud curator of nine beguiling albums and an accomplished performer with sell out worldwide tours under her belt. Her atmospheric version of Serge Gainsborough’s La Javanaise was used in the soundtrack of Oscar Winner The Shape of Water and her countless accolades
include the coveted BBC International Artist Of The Year honour.
 
Madeleine’s thirst for creative exploration is unfading and her willingness to face creative challenges remains as solid now as it was three decades ago.

With endearing passion and great curiosity the unstoppable genre-defying virtuoso continues her search for the good and examines life with the treasured William Congreve belief that Music has charms to soothe the savage beast.
 
Madeleine might attribute her success to “mostly luck” but to the industry and loyal fans alike, it is the immense talent and utter dedication to her craft that shines through.
“Peyroux is a tremendous talent and almost a total intuitive” reflects Larry Klein, “she has the capacity to get the magic. When she sings and plays her guitar, great things happen.”
