HOOKSTYLE (SG)

Dave, also known as Hookstyle has been rocking the Singapore music circuit since the mid 90’s, helming one of the country’s most acclaimed rock bands Electrico.

In the midst of a hiatus in 1998 - A pair of turntables, and a fetish for records, allowed him to continue moving audiences... honing his craft at residencies across the underground circuit - His eclectic mix of House, Disco, Jazz and Funk endeared himself to the erupting Singapore club scene.

He quickly became a stalwart of the local dance music scene and a regular feature at exclusive parties for Dior, Mercedes Benz, Porsche and the like - spreading his flavour across the region. In 2010 he became the Head Resident DJ at KU DE TA Singapore, and more than 20 years after it all started, his ability to blend genres and rock the vibe has not skipped a beat.

Dave is also a founding member of the infamous party-rocking STASSH collective, with DJ KFC and Dodgy Yamamoto - Which has also taken its block party vibes across the region including the Gilles Peterson Worldwide festivals sharing the decks with Todd Terje, Christian Prommer, Toshio Matsura, Gilles Peterson, Karizma, Cut Chemist and Kruder & Dorfmeister.
