T Base Bio
Music Style : Drum and Bass, Nu Jazz

Natty Saphakkul, a.k.a. T Base, a veteran DJ born in Bangkok, Thailand, touched his first turntable when he was in grade 7 at a private school party.

In 1999, he started seriously DJing as the resident DJ at "See too bar", "Bangkok Bar" and extensive guest DJ appearances around the Bangkok scene.

T Base's unique style covers a wide range of musical styles. He spins varied sets from down tempo tracks to dance floor grooves: Nu Jazz, Broken Beat, Soul, Deep House and Eclectic Grooves. His influences come from labels such as Blue Note, Compost, Far out, Schema, BBE and many more. It will not surprise if you hear tunes from Jazzanova, 4 Hero, Truby Trio and Azymuth.

In 2001, T Base went to London. This is where became addicted to Drum and Bass grooves. Upon his return to Thailand, he decided to join 2003 Heineken DJ Spin competition in Pattaya. As the only DJ spinning Drum and Bass, he won the prestigious Popular Vote prize based on a panel of judges and audience response. Through his success at this competition and winning the Popular Vote prize, T Base skyrocketed to the forefront of the Drum and Base scene in Thailand.

After concentrating on DJing for several years, he decided to venture into the record shop business and opened Jazzbah Records. Jazzbah Records is the finest, most comprehensive records shop in Thailand with the aim of promoting quality dance, eclectic and down beat music. Established in 2000, Jazzbah is the oldest DJ shop in Bangkok and is located in the heart of Siam Square. Their focus is on providing quality music rather than mainstream trendy releases.

In 2006, T Base collaborated with DJ Kingkong and released a track called "Lost" with the Homebass Communication label; this track was released on their "Asia Bass" compilation. Currently, he is working on studio production and hosting bi-monthly parties under the well known Drum and Bass party name "Low Frequency".

On doing what his love and want to share his skill and experience to the kids and new generation, he has been teaching DJ Class at Bangkok Pattana school, the well-known UK format international school since year 2006.

Shelley a.k.a Deeizm writes, sings, raps & produces and has multi tasked her way to the top of her game as an international performing artist. She First met Makoto in 2003 and they began working together, initially on mixes. Her style is very influenced by the combination of future jazz and funk that can be found in drum and bass.

Magnetic Soul is VERY proud to present the Hong Kong debut of two of the most respected & prolific artists to ever emerge from London's underground music scene... between them they have created more classic tracks & killer remixes than any other artist in the history of Drum & Bass - FACT!!!

These guys have done it all; Ed Rush was ranked #3 DJ in the world in the DNBA top 100, Optical was previously awarded 'Producer of the Year' by Mixmag.

As producers, they changed Drum & Bass forever with their 1998 debut LP, 'Wormhole'. They single-handedly, created the Tech-Step sound and sub genre of Drum N Bass with such massive tunes at "Cutslo" They have nearly 250 production credits between them.

As DJ's, they have been on tour pretty much non stop for more than 10 years now - playing the best clubs & festivals in all 4 corners of the world.

As label owners of the mighty VIRUS (named due to the twisted, organic & infectious sound!), they have released an incredible amount of fantastic music from not only themselves, but also from ANDY C, BAD COMPANY, NOISIA, BARON and many others...

In addition, DJ Outrage (Backlash, Metalheadz) will return to Hong Kong for the night! Three Drum n' Bass legends in the house! Don't miss this one off chance to catch the deadly duo live in action on Friday 28th November 2008!

Ed Rush貴為DNBA Top100 DJ之第三位DJ, 最近更被權威音樂雜誌Mixmag選為'Producer of the Year'. 其實力無容置疑. Ed Rush 及Optical 1998年的處女LP "Wormhole"改變了Drum & Bass界歷史, 並創作了無數燴炙人口的Dn'B經典樂曲. Ed Rush & Optical的黑暗幽閉, 剛猛而強滾的節奏, 配上肥厚重低音攻勢的動態音樂美學以及階段性地提出劃時代的進化理論拉闊了Drum & Bass界的視野. 他們在過去十年不停穿梭世界各地的頂尖夜店及音樂節作演出. 是英倫最具影響力及富創造力的Dn'B組合之一.

而Ed Rush 及Optical的音樂廠牌VIRUS出產了大量優質Dn'B樂曲, 除了Ed rush及Optical本人之音樂, 更包括Andy C, Bad Company, Noisia, Baron等Dn'B巨子之作.

Ed Rush & Optical 已應本地Dn'B團隊Magnetic Soul之邀請於2008年11月28日演出, 該派對是Ed Rush & Optical 首度來港之演出, 加上Metalheadz 之DJ Outrage 再次來港獻技, 三位Drum n?Bass國際大師同台演出, 絕對2008年壓軸之最強Dn'B派對!! 各clubber不容錯過!!!!
