Welcome to our first THEMAN MIX SERIES.
On the first occasion, we have The Man Andre Knight, a DJ, and a Jazz crusader from Jakarta, Indonesia. He cooked up an eclectic sound of modern Jazz you can chill and dance to. If Jazz is an addicted drug, Andre got the good stuff. 

BIO

Having always been passionate about music, Andre Knight began his interest in DJing and club culture after spending most of his teenage years discovering electronic music and underground dance parties in his hometown, Jakarta. 
Since then, he has gone on to play several venues and events in Auckland and London. 

Following his return to Jakarta in 2014, Andre Knight quickly caught the ears of both local and wider Asian audience having been the go-to warm-up DJ for international acts such as Compuphonic, Housemeister, Borrowed Identity, Tyson Ballard, Fantastic Man, Detroit Swindle, Francis Inferno Orchestra, Ben La Desh, Tessela, Frits Wentink, Cinthie, Nachtbraker, Pablo Valentino, Andy Hart, San Soda, and Rahaan. 

A serious record collector and crate-digger with broad taste and knowledge, Andre's palpable passion for music emerges in his DJ sets, showing influences ranging from Jazz and Afro to Broken Beat and Techno. 

With some considerable experience under his belt playing in cities such as Bali, Hong Kong, Singapore, Paris, Marseille, Lyon, and Amsterdam, Andre Knight has developed taste and skills behind the decks that set him apart from his peers. Whether it's a daytime beach party or an underground night in a sweaty, dark basement, Andre Knight never fails to surprise and delight his listeners with his carefully selected music and energetic performance.

Everyday Rhythm adalah cerita tentang apa yang terjadi di bawah permukaan. Terlepas dari rutinitas sehari-hari hidup di kota, hidup ini penuh dengan dinamika dan perubahan.

When you listen to his beat, you know he is influenced by the great J-Dilla, Dibiase, and the whole LA Beat Scene and his track Noneedtokptrl is a statement of that. As one of the favorite/best beatmakers in Indonesia (in our humble opinion), he keeps sharping his skill like sharp katana, ready to cut/split everyone with his soulful sample chop in his music production. When you got the swing, you got the swing, and Noneedtokptr is the result of that. 

Saat Anda mendengarkan ketukannya, Anda tahu dia dipengaruhi oleh J-Dilla yang hebat, Dibiase, dan seluruh LA Beat Scene dan lagunya, Noneedtokptrl, adalah pernyataannya. Sebagai salah satu beatmaker favorit/terbaik di Indonesia (menurut pendapat kami), dia terus mengasah kemampuannya seperti katana yang tajam, siap memotong/membelah semua orang dengan sample chop penuh perasaannya dalam produksi musiknya. Saat Anda mendapatkan ayunannya, Anda mendapatkan ayunannya, dan Noneedtokptr adalah hasilnya.

Noneedtokptrl - Densky9

Two1one is one of those special beatmakers that transcend beyond his age (He just turned 20). When you listen to Day Dreaming, you can immediately recognize the work behind it. The amount of time and work that he put to put all the sounds together, created colorful and richness in rhythm n sound. Two1one makes sure to us that the future of Sumatra beat makers is here and Day Dreaming is the sound that will resonate throughout Indo Beat Maker Stereophere. 

Two1one adalah salah satu beatmaker spesial yang melampaui usianya (Dia baru berusia 20 tahun). Saat Anda mendengarkan Day Dreaming, Anda bisa langsung mengenali karya di baliknya. Jumlah waktu dan usaha yang dia lakukan untuk menyatukan semua suara, menciptakan warna-warni dan kekayaan dalam irama dan suara. Two1one memastikan kepada kami bahwa masa depan pembuat beat Sumatera ada di sini dan Day Dreaming adalah suara yang akan bergema di seluruh Indo Beat Maker Stereophere.
