The number 1 radio station for new music discovery :) @1AMRadio #NMM each & every Monday

Typefunk (Yokchi Chang) is the co-founder of Nightfreq. As a worldwide tastemaker and Head of visual marketing for Nighfreq, Typefunk oversees all artists bookings, and event planning for Nightfreq events while always digging for the future night frequencies.

A lover of music and a visionary in his own right, Type “Do What You Love” Funk sees no obstacles in his path, creatively problem-solving as he approaches every situation with compassion and an open mind. Typefunk's commitment to increasing visibility for good music and educating the public is achieved through the monthly events that Nightfreq has achieved since 2009. 

When Typefunk hits the stage you can expect to hear styles, melodies and rhythms slipping the grid and blurring beautifully into one another. Grounded in hip-hop but equally comfortable wandering further afield, the effect is immersive and progressive, with timeless sounds wrapped around future-soul/funk, disco, jazz, bass, house, and gauzy electronics.

Ecuador Guayaquil is his home town. Typefunk also does visuals for shows under the USER alias, Stay tune for mixtapes and shows thanks for the support!

Hi, I'm Wellz.

Opening for large acts such as Shwayze, Mod Sun, Awol One, Ecid and Nappy Roots, Parlor Trix is Samson (Sam Miller), Tone (Anthony Garrido), Dot (K.C. Taylor), and Drix (Dallin Ricks). Parlor Trix represents much of what has been lost in contemporary rap music by blending underground bass-heavy all original music with raw lyrical talent. Dot, Samson and Tone being avid life-long Hip-Hop fans, respect those who had to put in work to achieve their musical status and their verse-heavy writing reflects that.

“We get why so many songs focus on the hook; it can be catchy like a ringtone. We like to rap.”

-Samson

Dot was born in Denver, Colorado where he embraced hip-hop culture at a young age. He brought that attitude with him when he moved to Logan, Utah in 10th grade. Common interest brought him and Samson, who were raised in Logan together. Within no time and the rap duo was born.

Nothing was able to develop before Dot moved to Phoenix in 2008. He moved back to Utah in 2010 and reunited with Samson in Salt Lake City. Drix lived two houses away from Samson and suggested a musical collaboration. The three hit it off immediately and have been fine tuning their sound ever since. Later on Tone came into the picture when he started writing rhymes with the crew which resulted in him joining Parlor Trix.

Parlor Trix manages to hit that demographic somewhere in-between what is considered “underground” and “mainstream.” Their lyrics are not of the hyper-intellectual sort. Samson, Dot and Tone are frustrated storytellers and need only to share their stories to entertain listeners. Drix constructs every beat from scratch and his unique bass-heavy sounds are both catchy and unique.

As of now Parlor Trix is working on their debut album titled "4 Of A Kind" which will be released in Spring 2014. In the mean time they'll be releasing mixtape tracks here and there.
