Stellar Music 27 : BREAKINASIA presents REIKI (Singapore)
Born and raised in Singapore, DJ Reiki is a local breaks stalwart & one of the most well known Djs in the circuit. It was in 1999 when she stumbled upon the hard hops of Omar Santana and the nu-skool breaks of Adam Freeland. Since then, her style of breaks gradually developed to sets of high impact tunes, frantic beats, swirling analogues and monster hooks.
Since Reiki’s first well-received club appearance in Phuture (by Zouk) and her debut promotional mixed CD entitled Equlibrium 001: Dawn of Breaks, she has moved on to spin for leading local breakbeat events such as Sirens, Phuture Breaks, Guerilla, Assault and guest spot in other parts of Asia, headlining Breaks Centro & Flava Breaks in Kuala Lumpur, Salem Innovation Sessions in Hong Kong and recently Breakzelecta in Bangkok.
Known for dropping wicked tunes that heat up the dancefloors, she has even supported drum n bass heavyweight DJs Aphrodite, Mickey Finn & John B as well as Asia’s breaks ambassador, Tony Tay (Zouk) and UK breaks heavyweight, General Midi.
Scenewise, Reiki has been a pillar in gathering breaks enthusiasts to promote domestic breaks culture as well as writing articles / reviews, but more importantly, documenting the music’s growing movement in regional portal - http://breakinasia.blogspot.com
