About Me

kongkretebass
Hong Kong Drum and Bass DJ Wash - Hong Kong Drum N Bass Promoter, DJ, Producer.
DJ Wash - Hong Kong Drum N Bass Promoter, DJ, Producer.
Raised in Sydney, Australia, a city which is renowned for its House Music and BreakBeat background, Wash found a way out of the norm and discovered Drum'n'Bass after spinning Breaks and Hip Hop in 2000.
Heavily influenced by artists from different genres such as Nu Jazz, House, Breaks and Hip-Hop, he found himself a unique sound and style in Drum'n'Bass.
His diverse styles of Drum'n'Bass varies from labels such as Metalheadz, Signiture, Soul:R, GLO, Commercial Suicide, Subtitles, Vision, Inneractive Music, Bassbin, Ganja, TruePlayaz, Hospital, Eastside, Back2Basics, Space, Frontline etc.
His skills and style are both smooth yet aggressive, making him very versatile on the decks. His use of layering, a technique in which he layers a bass line from one track onto the bass line of another is just one example of his intricate. He also employs teasing and quickly switches between tracks, yet keeps a smooth flow. All of these techniques make him very noticeable to the discerning Drum'n'Bass fan.
Debut Drum"n"Bass gig in early 2002 with the Airbourne/Momentum Crew established him as a DJ to be reckoned with in the future.
Soon he found himself playing alongside Sydney's finest and supporting touring DJs such as DJ Friction [Shogun Audio/ Valve Recordings ] and Breakage [ Bassbin Records /[ ScientificWax ].
Since then, his love for Drum'n'Bass had developed more and more. He began learning the ropes of Drum'n'Bass production in 2003 with help from producers such as DJ Ritual (CongoNatty Outernational), Vice Versa (Good Looking Organisation) and other local producers such as A.L.F (CongoNatty Outernational) and FreddyFred (Shout Recordings).
Now based in Hong Kong, DJ Wash and his partner Electronic Mistress, had been involved another local crew in Hong Kong - funding, helping them with promotions, bookings and headlining for their nights at Clubs and Bars such as Vodka Bar, Yumla, Bling, Lost, and Loft9, pushing the Hong Kong Drum & Bass sound. Apart from playing alongside Hong Kong's other junglist, he has also provided support for Nu:Tone ( Hospital Records ) South East Asia Tour, DJ A Sides (UK, Eastside Records ) on his tour in March '06, DJ SUV (FullCycle, PlaySide Records) and Sonic (Space Recordings) on his "Return of Sonic and Silver Tour of Asia.
Within this time, DJ Wash has also supported top regional talent and other special guests which includes: Dragon (Homebass, Bangkok), DJ Vortex (Exitmusik, Singapore), DJ Kain (Ohm Resistance, New York City), DJ Yomi (Tone Def Records, London), PC Laboratory (Bangkok, Thailand), Zul (Singapore, Subvert) and plently more.
With only a short year of involvement in the Hong Kong Drum & Bass scene, DJ Wash has been established as one of the top DJs within his peers, and is well received by punters for his skills on the turntables and his unique style/sound in Drum and Bass.
Within the Asia region DnB scene, DJ Wash was invited by Homebass Communications (Bangkok) to Club ASTRA (Bangkok) to represent the Hong Kong sound in March 2006, and in the end of 2006, ChengDoo.com had invited him and good friends BloodDunza & Kas to ChengDu (China) to finish the 2006 off in style, all three DJs smashing it till early hours of New Years Day!
Since 2006, Wash has set his mind and determined to push the Asia Drum and Bass scene in his own ways and departed from the crew which he had helped grow. Now hosting a website http://www.kongkretebass.com which will hope to connect all Asia/ Australian/ New Zealand Drum and Bass DJs, Producers, Promoters and Punters alike.
Hopeing that with this connection, Headz and other Drum&Bass lovers will connect and hence, making the scene in Asia and Oceanic bigger and better. Kongkretebass website which now hosts the Number 1 Drum and Bass Pod Cast in Hong Kong, in which it plays all styles of drum and bass. With special guest mixes from the region and around the globe!
