Description
Liquid Funk is back once again bringing Aotearoa’s finest creator of soulful, musical, liquid drum n bass, the legendary TOKYO PROSE. To make matters even better, this time he’s bringing his North Quarter label mate SATL all the way from Poland. Those of you that have witnessed one of Tokyo Prose’s trips to Wellington over the last eight years, including his sold-out events in 2018, 2020 and 2023, will know the vibes that are in store. Satl is an incredibly successful producer and DJ in his own right, releasing his debut album Gloom on Lensman’s North Quarter imprint in 2022, and making his home djing across Europe with the biggest names in Drum n Bass. As always, the Liquid Funk crew will be on support duties, bringing our trademark selection, big smiles and good vibes. TOKYO PROSE Sam Reed aka Tokyo Prose is NZ’s finest liquid drum n bass export to the world with releases on legendary labels Soul:r, Hospital Records, Footnotes and Lensman’s North Quarter imprint. His music is regularly supported by many of the scenes biggest names including Calibre, LSB, Lenzman, Hybrid Minds,LSB, DJ Marky, London Elektricity and many more. His most recent release, 2023’s Three Colour Portrait EP, showcased his trademark lush piano melodies, crisp drums and grooving baselines. For a career of over ten years’, Tokyo Prose has a succinct and carefully managed back-catalogue of music. He has a deliberate, restrained, and soulful production style with a firm focus on musicality and groove. In 2014 Tokyo Prose released his debut album ‘Presence’ on Samurai Music. ‘Presence’ marked the culmination of his musical exploration and evolution up until that point-encapsulating the soulful, emotive vibrancy of the Tokyo Prose sound, now fully formed and refined. The album included several features with DRS, Riya and Fox on vocals and Lenzman, Synkro and LSB on co-production. Soon after saw his first feature on Marcus Intalex's hugely respected label Soul:R with 'TellMe'.Tokyo Prose’s sophomore album on The North Quarter 'Wild Grace' delivered a masterclass in emotive musical storytelling. The project features some of his most sought-after works including the popular ‘Innate Motion’, ‘Trick of the Light’ and ‘Brilliant Corners’. ‘Innate Motion’ was also featured in Calibre’s BBC Essential Mix. SATL Hailing from Poland, Satl is one of the leading lights in a new generation of Drum & Bass producers. Still only in his early 20’s he first started producing over a decade ago, giving his music a refinement and depth beyond his years. Blending a host of influences Satl has managed to craft a signature sound best described as hazy cosmic soul with powerful rolling drums. Never satisfied and driven to excel at his craft, the young producer is absurdly prolific, often writing dozens of tracks in a month. It’s not surprising then that his music has been heavily supported by some of the most influential DJs in the scene and has him working closely with leading labels such as The North Quarter and Integral. His productivity also influences his DJ set which heavily feature his own work making them unique and sought after showcases. His blend of melancholic, yet energetic soulful music has already taken him across the world, from London to Hong Kong and Sydney and yet Satl’s journey is only just beginning
