It’s been a while since I’ve actually DJed or released a mix. It’s been a crazy three years since moving to Bali—mental and physical health, family, work, life… It really feels like things are only just getting back into some kind of rhythm that I can flow with right now.

Finally, this year, I relaunched RITUAL, a club night I’ve been running for 10 years now. We’ve found a new home at RASA in Singapore—a club designed by Studio Karhard (the same architectural team behind Berghain and Kyiv’s K41) and featuring a custom-built TPI sound system. Over the years, I’ve hosted legends like Gerd Janson, @prinsthomas, @romanfluegel, @radioslave, @orpheuthewizard, @chida73, @kornel, @tornadowallace, @manfredas, Ivan Smagghe ( @colonelgatito) … just to name-drop a few haha

Here’s a recording of my opening set from March, headlined by @john-talabot —an artist I have the utmost respect for and draw a lot of my music inspiration from. Not gonna lie, it was a little bit of a dream come true to finally do the opening set for him!

The set includes tracks from @midland, @radioslave, @sunnysibar, @priori-ties, @simonedekunovich and more— artists I’ve booked (and been inspired by) over the years.
