Darker Than Wax: Dean Chew with Bergas
17.02.21Dean Chew AKA Funk Bast*rd heads up the Darker Than Wax collective and imprint on the island of Singapore, home to a flourishing DIY musical culture, showcasing diverse underground electronic sounds from Southeast Asia and beyond. His left-field approaches to genre-crossing and imaginative mixing add an extra something-something to his already eclectic selections.
This month, Dean is joined by one of Jakarta’s music veterans, DJ Bergas – one of the originators of the Indonesian scene and creative mind behind the streetwear label Pleasure and music club ZODIAC.
