But no it’s just that exact diversity what defines Sheng Who as a DJ. It’s his crazy form of expression

Already as a little kid playing with the 12 band parametric eq on the pickup and sonically exploring everyone record collection Sheng bought his first record aged 8. George Michaels album. Constantly looking out for new tunes on the airwaves he was killing the dub tape game at school. After sne

aking into clubs by 14 and mysteriously ending up in the hottest underground parties Sheng was always intrigued by how Amsterdams and the world`s best Djs would subtlety build tension and manage to make every mix a surprising transition. Every track had its purpose and this is where his quest for the perfect mix began. His soulful roots go back almost two decades since catching the virus in Amsterdam’s underground aged 15. Sheng was truly inspired and schooled by the best and has been a true warrior of the underground ever since. His selections consist out of various very particular but captivating stand out tracks in various sub genres related to what used to simply be underground house music. In essence be tríes to bridge the gap between his beloved deep soulful house with an eclectic touch with his passion for more futuristic hypnotic deep tech , melodico techno and hints of progressive due to early inspirations by guys like Halo Varga, Fred Everything, Kevin Yost, Dixon, Sebastian leger. Sasha and Dutch legend the Funky Bastard Aka Ken Abel to point out a few. But his roots lie more in the US and UK hOuse and garage scene. Seeing Louie Vega and Kenny dope with Elements of life live for 50 bucks on a Sunday in a crammed Paradiso touched his soul, Masters like Joe claussell, Blaze and Franki feliciano were household names in his earlier selections. Once being ridiculed by some industry insiders for mixing deep techy cuts into soulful deep house sets and mashing them up with minimal techno at the peak of Defecteds popularity now it’s at the new sound everyone is producing and at the frontier of a musical evolution of jazz and techno in which all sub genres have their own moment and place. Minimal deep to make space for rich harmonies later , or a transition to a punchier beat maybe something funky, cinematic or a forgotten melodic gem that put the smile on the face of many. Sheng is a guarantee for a Dj that will bend the will of the crowd and fill them with good vibes no matter what. Records are just tools to tell a story, have a theme. It’s a joy To flow from light to dark happy to sad and lush piano riffs to disturbingly banging underground techno. His in-depth knowledge of underground electronic music culture and also genres like Obscure Hiphop Jazz and Blues have given him a rich foundation to draw inspiration from and to re-interpret. Make no mistake underestimating Sheng Who already headlined legendary Bulgarian club Chervilo several times back in 2009 and has graced the decks at exotic locations like Milan, Playa del Carmen,Las Vegas, Dubai and Abu Dhabi a decade ago. After years of harmonic layering of beautiful melodies and vocals he got a bit bored with the same song structure so over time he developed a preference for darker and punchier Techno based deep and techhouse and deep dubs over vocals for creative reasons. A blunt move for a known DJ but he decided to start fresh under his own real name at the other side of the world. With little support, and even less resources he battled and charmed his way into all the Dj booths in Northern México and has been burning dancefloors all over México and the USA ever since. Techno Taco Tuesday , Apparitions festival, The Great Northern SF, The End Up and headlining 120+ shows in just 2 years in Mexico and the USA has given him a rocksolid reputation on both sides of the border. He also has gained notoriety amongst DJs that have played for him at his Best Kept Secret showcases at Deck 22 where he`s a resident and booking manager. Ask guys like Technasia Seb Zito, Leon, Dance Spirit or underground hero Alci if you really looking for a connoisseurs judgement on Sheng Who`s skills. It’s real and it’s gaining mass. The love from the crowd and the ability to express himself fully has given him the confidence, strength and routine to evolve into a freeform underground DJ that can handle any crowd and take them on a musical journey day or night. His deep passion for electronic music and relentless dedication to creating and sustaining a positive vibe is something that can be seen and felt. Going into his 20th year as an aspiring artist its evident that Shengs best times are yet to come. Quietly working on his production skills its soon time for the Best Kept Secret to reveal himself.
