"HEARTBEATS" mixed by DJ BROWN SUGAR

Check out this sweet mix by our soul brother no. 1 DJ BROWN SUGAR, as we get ready for a special wedding edition of THEGETUP!

We at THEGETUP! wishes to give our praises and our congratulations to BS & Yvonne! And hope to see everyone down at INSENSES on 25 Aug (Sat)!

Here's what Brown Sugar got to say:

--------------------

I was contemplating if I should be posting this mix up in a public domain. It is really rough around the edges but it's my 1st official mix (live recording), at other times I am just the warm up dude for my crew.

The inspiration behind this mix is my lovely wifey-to-be as these are the tracks I would be grooving to with her during our wedding party.

Spread the love!

-Brown Sugar

DJ RAHAAN

The name Rahaan may be unfamiliar to most in Hong Kong, but there is no doubt the man from the Windy City, Chicago is now one of the world’s most in demand and well respected DJ for the true authentic sound of funk, disco and soul music.

Channelling the spirit of Chicago DJ pioneers like Ron Hardy, Farley Jackmaster Funk and the Hot Mix 5, Rahaan has been laying down sets spanning everything from jacking house, deep disco, boogie and funk since the 80`s. From underground basement parties on the southside of Chicago, to playing at big nights in the UK, Europe and Japan, his skill and energy behind the decks has brought him out from the Chicago underground and onto the world stage, gaining him a cult following.

In addition to his own productions, Rahaan is also known for his own edits of dance floor classics which have been released on labels including StilLove4Music, KAT and Jisco Music. A compilation of his best edits to date is due out soon on Spacemachine records.
