Sembawang Hills, Singapore
A staple in Singapore’s nightlife, Sivanesh has been instrumental in shaping the sonic identity of the island-city. Citing seminal American producers ‘Mood II Swing’ as an early musical influence, his sound is held together by equal amounts of rhythm and soul, and it goes beyond current trends in genres.
Before nightlife in Asia came to a halt from the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, Sivanesh was a regular fixture at some of the city’s most popular venues - constant DJ bookings at the renowned Headquarters by The Council, along with his residency at CÉ LA VI at the iconic Marina Bay Sands Hotel saw him taking charge of the world-renowned main room every weekend with his brand of sultry off-kilter house and groovy heads-down techno, playing alongside esteemed DJs such as Chaos In The CBD (In Dust We Trust), d’Julz (Bass Culture Records), Jasper James (Optimo Trax), Okain (Talman), and Rampa (Keinemusik), amongst others.
