Scientific Sound Asia is excited to welcome Blaze DJ back for his latest guest show, 'Ministry of Breaks' 23, on our radio station. As a key player in the Asian electronic music scene, Scientific Sound Asia is known as a leading DJ agency, promoter, and radio station, with a growing international audience.
Blaze DJ, a seasoned DJ and producer from Walthamstow in East London, has deep roots in the underground music culture that shaped his career.
While many believe that mastering a craft requires 10,000 hours of practice, for Blaze DJ, those hours were merely the foundation. His dedication has resulted in an almost instinctive ability to connect with both his equipment and his audience, creating an immersive musical experience.
Growing up in a musically diverse household, Blaze DJ was influenced by the various sounds his family listened to. From Jazz, Funk, and Disco, to New Romantics and 80s synth-pop, these early experiences helped shape his musical identity. However, it was the discovery of House Sounds of Chicago Volume 1 in 1987, while still at school, that solidified his love for house music and set the stage for a lifelong commitment to the genre.
Blaze DJ began DJing at the age of 15, and quickly made a name for himself. From local gigs in Edmonton to large-scale residencies in Birmingham and Faliraki, Blaze DJ played to audiences of up to 2,000 people. Having experienced the UK’s Acid House revolution firsthand, he feels fortunate to have been part of the movement that transformed the country’s electronic music scene.
Despite having been a key player in the scene for over three decades, Blaze DJ continues to bring the same passion and enthusiasm to his sets as he did when playing at legendary raves in the 1990s. For him, house music is at the heart of everything he does. His distinctive style, a mix of classic house, breaks, acid, and techno, reflects the many influences he has absorbed throughout his career.
Blaze DJ’s impact extends beyond the decks. His work in DJ shops during his early years led to a retail revolution, as he became the first to bring together DJ and production equipment under one roof. His contributions to the electronic music community didn’t end there, as he later became a consultant and audio-visual designer, working on sound systems for some of the world’s top clubs.
After taking a 15-year break from performing, Blaze DJ reignited his passion for DJing and returned to the scene with renewed energy. Since his return, he has secured three regular radio slots on Ibiza Club News, Underground Kollektiv, and Scientific Sound Asia.
Armed with a collection of unreleased tracks, Blaze DJ has been releasing music on labels such as Industrial Force and Zeta Records. As one of the most dedicated DJs in the global breaks scene, his hard work and passion continue to drive his success.
His brand, Ministry of Breaks, has been gaining momentum over the past two years, earning a reputation for its unique blend of breaks, bass, and bleeps. With new music on the horizon, Blaze DJ is set to continue making waves in the electronic music world.
2022 marked a milestone for Blaze DJ, with the release of London Bass on ONE7AUDIO and successful Ministry of Breaks parties, including an all-day event in June and the launch of Breaks n Bass. Looking ahead, 2023 is shaping up to be another exciting year, with Blaze DJ relaunching Breaks n Bass on 8th April in Dalston, London.
Listen to Blaze DJ live on Friday, 7th April 2023, from 6 PM to 8 PM Indochina Time (ICT), with a repeat airing on Tuesday from 6 AM to 8 AM (ICT). You can catch the show on the players below.
