Your musical history: When did you start mixing, remixing and producing ?
LK: I had a love for music from a very early age it started out with me humming melody’s making my own words up for song etc… as early as 5-6. Then when i was 11-12 i started listening to acid house and piano driven house. My first experience of ‘Decks’ was when i was 15 in a friends party and you literally couldnt get me off them for hours and from then on things built from there. By 17 I had my own setup and my record collection was growing by the day and by 19, I landed my first professional residency.

After that I never looked back and over the past decade have DJ’d all over the UK in many bars clubs.

In 2004 i thought the natural progression of DJing was production so i started to mess around on sequencers ‘Acid pro/Reason’ from then moved onto Cubase in 2005 thats when things started to get more serious. I started writing tracks around 2004-05 and started remixing in 2006-07.

I’m also completely self taught (A friend ‘DJ Tugie’ helped me with the basics in cubase but i learnt the rest over the years).

Many pop stars such as Katy Perry, Rihanna, Pink, trust you when it comes to turn their tune into a club smash, what does it take to make a successful sound?
Its all about keeping the track as close to the original but with more energy, nice uplifting synths and a solid Beat/Percussion, so the listener can enjoy the original in the Club and in the Gym etc…

I especially love this one, tell us about the music you love: favourite song ever, singer and DJ ?
Ha… tough question i love all kinds of music from Motown/Soul RnB right through to House/Techno/Hardcore and everything in between. One of my favourite tracks ever has to be….. Giorgio Moroder & Philip Oakey – Together In Electric Dreams, favourite Vocalist Phill Collins, and favourite Band The Lighthouse Family Both inspiring/unique artists as for favourite DJ…it’s a flip between Frankie Knuckles and Paul Oakenfold.

You seem to be a “Synth” lover, so let’s talk about your secret weapons: What are your favourite DAW, plug-ins, and of course synths?
Here comes the classified information haha:

I use the trusted Virus Ti and a lot of softs like Nexus, Hypersonic 2 (old but gold) Mini Moog, Arp2600 i use quite a few. My DAW is Cubase.

If you were coming to play in Paris, which track would you choose to burn the dancefloor ?

If im booked for a big gig i always try to make a brand new remix for that particular gig so i suppose a remix of a cassius track or early Bob Sinclar track would work well.

And dont forget to include your email address, so we can contact ya!

MUSE Recovery is gonna be a whole lot of hot music, hot boys and hot shows! We try to do better with each MUSE party, and make it a party to remember and talked about. We had about 700 people attend the 1st MUSE at the F1 Pit Building and it was a riot. This time round, the party’s at Forbidden City in Clark Quay, that boasts incredible décor, a glass ceiling courtyard dance floor and state of the art sound system and lights (and lasers!). There’s even Singapore’s biggest Grey Goose ice-bar that serves various shots and shooters in sub zero temperatures.

In terms of shows, Starlight Alchemy will dazzle you with their incredible performance of light bending and manipulation, that will blow your senses. You don’t wanna miss this show that will start promptly at midnight. Then, we have scoured the whole of Singapore to bring you some sexy muscled Go Go Boys who will be shakin’ their booty for you for the very first time. We’re planning to have janitors on standby to mop the drool off the dance floor after each of their performance. Lol.

"MUSE Recovery is called a Recovery Party, cos it’s really my return to the decks after having undergone major surgery. It’s just so good to be alive and healthy and well and no better way then to throw a party as a kind of celebration of life. I’m really happy to be back and hope you’ll come celebrate with me. :)", DJ Big Kid
