There def was something in the air last weekend at our DTW15 celebrations. Everyone was locked in from start to finish in both Floor and Hall, and we kept it deep and soulful ANL. Huge love out to the folks who stayed with us, and special ones out to @_natashahassan and @s_____ffyan for blessing us with their tight selections. Keep a lookout for two more editions coming up in the next few months at @rasaspace , with some of our regional friends joining us. Stay in the groove ✨ —— 📷 : @iamlw14 Visuals : @layersoftime.studio

WHAT’S ON AT RASA THIS WEEKEND 🧠 Friday 24 April begins with a return to stillness. From 18:00 to 22:00, Ryan the Weatherman (@ryan.theweatherman ) presents ‘Channel: A Gentle Transition’- an invitation to shed the busyness of the city and gather barefoot for a deep listening session. 归于平静 (returning to stillness). Accompanied by slow-brewed tea, dreamy soundscapes will be guided by Murrr (@murrr.sic ), The Weatherman, and Thunder Tillman (@thundertillman ), allowing the room to collectively arrive home once more. As the clock strikes 22:30, the energy shifts from meditation to catharsis with Mando Hearts (@mandohearts.sg ), trading quiet reflection for a high-octane night of emotional singalongs and upbeat anthems. On Saturday 25 April, we celebrate a landmark: 15 Years in Motion with Darker Than Wax (@darkerthanwax ). What began as a local imprint has grown into a regional anchor, and we’re marking the milestone with a full-house takeover. The Floor belongs to co-founder Dean Chew (@funk_bstrd ) and Daryl Knows (@darylknows ) for an all-night session rooted in cosmic jazz and deep, off-centre house. Meanwhile, the Hall explores murkier, textured territory with Tashasan (@_natashahassan ) and Suffyan (@s_____ffyan ) navigating through bass, breaks, and deep electronics. Tickets via link in bio: come through and settle in. See you this weekend 🫆

If you know the Pals (@secret.pals ), you know it’s always about the music and the people they bring along with them. On Saturday 2 May, the crew returns to RASA for their biggest takeover yet—curating both the Hall and the Floor for the first time. They’re bringing in Inner Quiet (Roberto Seña, @rsenagram ), the Manila staple now based in Barcelona. Years ago, before the collective even started, it was a set by Seña at Moonstone that acted as one of the early sparks for the crew. It was one of those nights that made the path ahead feel possible, so having him back to headline a full-venue program is a massive full-circle moment. Inner Quiet is known for a playful kind of precision. Having anchored Manila’s nightlife for years before moving to Europe, he moves through dub techno, minimal, and progressive house with a fluid, global perspective. He’s recently been carving out his space in Barcelona with Subwax and Mund Radio, and we’re excited to have that energy back on our floor. We’re splitting the building into two worlds for the night: 🪩 The Floor: House in all its forms. Pat (@patreekgerard ) opens up the floor, followed by a B2B session from Bongomann (@bongomann_ ) and Daryl Knows (@darylknows ), leading into Inner Quiet. 🔊 The Hall: Bass-heavy global movements. Expect high energy from the funky trio AAAZR (@azr.adr ), 54B (@54bbyyy ), and SyedSavage69 (@adelalsagoff ), alongside the Last Saturdays pals HBN (@_ellahadid ) and HZQ (@_hzqq_ ) Grab your pals and come through 🌟 Tickets are available via the link in bio.

Darker Than Wax: 15 Years in Motion 🎂 This year, Singapore’s Darker Than Wax (@darkerthanwax ) marks 15 years — a milestone shaped by years of releases, parties and a growing network that stretches well beyond the city. What started as a small imprint has become a steady presence across the region, moving through jazz, house, broken beat and leftfield electronics. Fresh off a first edition in Bangkok, the celebration lands at RASA on 25 April, taking over both the Hall and the Floor. On the Floor, co-founder Dean Chew (@funk_bstrd ) links up with Daryl Knows (@darylknows ) for an all-night session. Dean’s sets carry years of digging and a deep knowledge of music that moves across cosmic jazz, house and off-centre rhythms, while Daryl shifts between soul, disco, house and beyond with a natural sense of flow. In the Hall, Tashasan (@_natashahassan ) and Suffyan (@s_____ffyan ) step in. Tashasan moves through the murkier edges of bass music - breaks, dubstep, percussive club sounds while Suffyan works across downtempo, house and deeper electronics, shaped by his time across the city’s listening spaces and dancefloors. Come celebrate with us - ticket link in the bio 🍰

Daryl Knows, a selector filled with fluidity and intent. from amorous soul cuts and jittery electro to the ever so frisky disco rarities and uplifting house, @darylknows ’ range is wide enough but never not in-depth. it’s this kinda versatility that’s landed him esteemed appearances across the country & region. deeply rooted in the singaporean scene, Daryl has been a key member of @darkerthanwax since 2016, with multiple residences at @offtrack.sg , @headquarters.sg & @rasaspace under his belt. he’s also been in and about some of the scene’s most loved gatherings from brew to ics’ haw par thrilla, and not forgetting the iconic last mile at golden mile complex. grounded in experience but still pushing the boundaries, he approaches every set as a conversation; measured, responsive and always in tune with whoever’s on the other side of it. Daryl’s mix is now live on our youtube, link is in the bio 📍 tracklist 💮 1. rhythm of paradise - signal (adriatic garden’s mix) 2. schatzi - rattlesnake 3. @mayurashka - parents and god 4. @jerome_sydenham_official - this door 5. borrowed cs - balance 6. nebraska - big plate chicken 7. loxodrome - drop out 8. @deetronofficial - broadway 727 (original mix) 9. @steve_rachmad_sterac - activa (d’julz edit) 10. gerd - hypno-disco 11. @steffi_dolly_klakson & @virginia_live - under this world (instrumental) 12. mike grant & trackmaster lou - remember 13. benjamin fröhlich - amos 14. ralph session- get down tonight (instrumental) 15. allen saei - pleased to meet you 16. wallace - air

On Friday, 20 March, RASA hosts a meeting point between Southeast Asia’s underground and the wider global circuit with DOTT (@dott_th ) and Julie Marghilano (@juliemarghilano ). For over a decade, DOTT (@dott_th ) has been central to Thailand’s underground — as founder of More Rice, operator of the country’s first electronic-focused record store, and a producer known for bass-driven, hypnotic house and techno. Extended sets often draw exclusively from his own catalogue, reflecting a practice rooted in discipline and authorship. Joining him, Julie Marghilano (@juliemarghilano ) brings deep musical lineage and vinyl fluency to the booth. Founder of Sol Asylum Records and a fixture at festivals like Freerotation and Honcho, her selections move across house, techno, and leftfield dance music with care, context, and intention. Opening the night, Daryl Knows (@darylknows ) from Darker Than Wax sets the foundation with fluid, versatile, and always in conversation with the room. In the Hall, it’s an all-night long takeover with Vinceshi (@vinceshi_ ) & Zai. Known for their unconventional and leftfield selections of blending Hip Hop, R&B, Neo-Soul, Funk, Soul, Jazz, into dynamic and soulful groove-driven sets. Doors open 17:00 for dinner, free entry with 1st drink purchase. Register at #linkinbio
