Lastly and without question by no means least Soundscape is once again privileged to have X’ho back amongst us. Musician, producer, poet and host of Lush FM’s Clubscape this man is without doubt a custodian of Singapore’s electronic scene. Essentially starting off chilled, sophisticated and relaxed before pushing the tempo and ending up in a hot, trashy, fever-pitched mess. JOIN US!

12th April – 17th April

One hopes that the weekend provided sufficient fun and rest and while the rest of us drones head on back to the 4 walls where our income is generated, our friends are certainly planning a swish, a swoosh and a bang for us this week @ cafe. While we do not have any programs planned for the public today and tomorrow, you’re more than welcome to drop by for an unwinding session with our mojito or a chat with our colleagues working the tables. And then, there is the rest of the week:

WEDNESDAY
It’s a full house this mid-week where you can choose to hang with Grooveworks @ Cafe from 9pm onwards for some seriously fun jazz OR head on up to Lounge with Matrix Jam if you’re a musician. Jam session is opened to all jazz loving players (or vocalist) but of course, be polite, give a shout out to George – our organiser for the night. 8:30pm onwards. But if you’re feeling chilled without them rhythm and blues vibe, go right up to SPACE to greet DJ Divine and his lovely REGGAE sets. 9pm onwards.

THURSDAY
It’s another SWING FLING @ Cafe with the crrrraaazzzyyyy Lindy Hop dancers from Jitterbugs. No, tis not a performance but a chance for you to join in this delightful fray.

FRIDAY
Step into cafe this Friday with Greg Lyons’ Quartet on stage with some cool sounds. One of our resident jazz band and they be one of them best. You’d be wanting one of them martinis too…. any which way you like them. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe

WOOT! Ayaschool is back – rested, rejuvenated and I’m sure some wild mixes up their sleeves. This time, DON’T sit down, but dance off instead from the good vibes coming through. The adjective – great – right before music is understood. Completely. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe

For those who are craving for some exciting electronic sounds, COUP delivers with a wide array of EDM leaning towards the deep and edgy side of things. It’s a bit of everything with elements of deep house, minimal, progressive, trance, tech house, techno, drum and bass and dubstep. 9:30pm onwards @ Lounge.

Peace out, ya’all

5th April – 10th April

Acks! Egads! We (ok, I) have been having so much fun just grooving and chilling in the lovely al fresco area that we (ok, I) forgot all about them words….

So if you have missed MON - WED - be sure to catch us next MONDAY with the ORIGINS - yes it’s a JAZZ band.. SURPRISE!!!! and on Wednesday, we have another… JAZZ Band! More surprises! We guarantee though, they aim to please and your ears will thank them. Grooveworks takes the stage with Jazz standards and of course our lovely REGGAE beat music maker: DJ Divine on the 2nd Flr on Wednesdays (most)

Now, no excuses, kiddies! Jitterbugs present the most enthusiastic dancers to the floor and they’re warm and friendly – they don’t bite. However, they’ll prance, swizzle, skip, hop, jump and oh yes, dance to some awesome Swing music – with Sing on decks – the selection will be kickin’! 8:30pm onwards @ Cafe

FRIDAY
It’s Mohd Noor and friends for set and they’ll be on form and hanging loose – letting the lurrrrve flow out – love for music. You’ll get jazz for sure, some funk, some soul and hopefully some wicked rhythms from the brother himself. 9;30pm onwards @ Cafe

And if you are not feeling that tame, climb on up where Pushin’ On holds their last do every last Friday of the month with groovy tunes – the kind that takes 70s inspiration but mixed in with breaks, beats and scratching of the modern day ghetto music interpretation. 9:30pm onwards @ Lounge

SATURDAY
Show them some of those smiles, those shaking booties or at least the clapping of them hands…. for AYASCHOOL! It’s hard to consistently come up such incredible music but week after week, they do! 9:30pm @ Cafe (there is NO reason not to be here!)

And if you’re feeling deep, you’re feeling dark… head on up with LOCUS for some drum and bass and all the other good stuff while the DJs come from various genres to mix in their favorite tracks. 9:30pm onwards

Peace out!
