    Amsterdam born and raised artist Masalo has been making waves, in the Amsterdam scene and beyond, for the past few years. With roots in Japan, his diversified upbringing is strongly translated into his musical output. Masalo’s DJing is proof of this hybridism, unearthing organic music from the past and combining them with new era dance music in a seamless way. This year his tour de force Dekmantel Boiler Room together with Kamma, along a full touring schedule of club and festival appearances has put him in the international spot. Masalo’s production art embodies the same spirit, where hybridism is being a key philosophy in his work. His choice cuts have found their home on the Rush Hour label, the imprint he’s closely connected with. With the recent ‘New Dance’ EP and a remix for New York’s Tom Noble, winning the hearts of many dance aficionados around the globe, a prospect is emerging as brightly as his party’s name. Together with Kamma, he runs the dance party series Brighter Days, a colourful get-together celebrating dance music culture to the fullest. Brighter Days pushes the spirit of friendship and togetherness on the dancefloor, welcoming local talent along tastemakers such as Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy, Hunee, Kuniyuki, DJ Spinna and many more. Recently Masalo contributed in the creation of Doka Studio together with a dedicated team of local creatives. Located in the Volkshotel building in the east-side of Amsterdam, Doka Studio is a sound bar and dance club focussing on immersive sound experiences. An intimate space with high-end audio equipement where subcultures unite and young talents and established protagonists resonate their soundwaves into the night. Masalo lives and breathes music with a raw and unadulterated approach to good vibes over from Amsterdam to the world.
