KUSTO (France) – Strictly Vinyl Set!
“Hailing from Brittany, France, Kustò has been travelling the world in search of the perfect sound for the last 20 years. After holding residencies in various bars and clubs in London, Milan, Bangkok and Berlin, his record collection has landed in Singapore. Expect a killer selection of infectious grooves ranging from Nigerian boogie to heavy Colombian rhythms.”

Ramesh Krishnan (SG)
"Ramesh became aware of music from an exceptionally young age. It has remained an essential part of his existence, as fundamental as food. The birth of Solid Gold in the 80s opened Ramesh’s heart to soul, rhythm and blues. This paved the way for his lifelong love of jazz, funk and Latin. The strength of this love can be heard as the undercurrent of all his music today. Over the last 20 years Ramesh has played in clubs across four continents, including 6 residencies at some of Singapore’s most influential venues, including his present stint at Cé La Vi Singapore. Performing at music festivals including Womad, Mosaic Music Festival with Montreux Jazz and Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival, he has continued his innovative style, sampling a menu of world beats, tropical sounds, dub, reggae, drum n bass and of course jazz."
