CHARLIE KWENTA
(SMILE, CROOKED SPINE RECORDS///CH)
Charlie Kwenta is from Lausanne Switzerland, he currently lives in Bangkok, Thailand. After he started mixing in 2000 he Quickly got his first gigs in the south of France where he was residing at the time.
He later came back to Switzerland where he teamed up with DJ/producer Bob Foxx and Crooked Spine Records, the brainchild of Foxx was born. CS records was soon putting on their own parties which has earned him a solid fan base in the local scene as well as a reputation for mixes that are long and creative . You will know when he is on the decks because of his unique style, and his interactions with the crowd.
Charlie started out playing straight techno, being influenced by artists such as Carl Cox, Sven Vath and Jeff Mills. He has since branched out to include Minimal techno, electro and deep house to his arsenal which he likes to blend into his mixes. “I love electronic music and it’s different variations; but I find that individual styles such as minimal/tech/electro can be boring on their own. This is why I like to use a bit of this and that in order to give a direction to my set.”
Since he began playing out in France Charlie kwenta is now a proud member of the Crooked Spine Records Dj crew and has been mixing in various countries and and venues…Colorado, New York , London, Ibiza, Tokyo,Hong Kong. He is now based out of Bangkok where you can find him throwing down sets in some of the best clubs in the city.

HEXER
(REBELLIOUS RECORDS///TR)
Growing-up on metal and Punk roots, Hexer was first exposed to electronic music in the mid 2000’s. Inspired by acid-infused 90's techno, he started his DJ career in Turkey’s vibrant basement club scene.
His first big DJ gig was back in 2008, in Istanbul’s infamous Temple club. Since then Hexer has performed more than 500 gigs in Istanbul, Prague, Bangkok, Penang, Hong Kong and many other cities & countries.
Hexer relocated to Bangkok in 2016 and swiftly became established in its rapidly growing underground scene, becoming a familiar face amongst its highly talented local & international artists. Currently a very active member of this scene, it has helped him a lot in improving both his DJing & Production knowledge through collaborating with other artists.
Becoming a DJ was just the beginning for Hexer. He has been an active producer for the last 2 years and his debut EP – The Rave Method - is due to be released on Rebellious Records in April 2018. As a former bass guitarist in local punk-hardcore band, Hexer defines his signature sounds are “Kicks that must slap your face while bass-lines are tripping in your body”.
Although he describes his style as “Eclectic like nature,” he feels the most comfortable expressing himself and his skills through Techno. He aims to have more releases in the near future, while at the same time practicing daily to improve his overall sound.
