~*~ About Me ~*~
I fell in love with pop music in the 80s and never looked back. 
I grew up inΒ Manila in the decade of Trapper Keepers, Lisa Frank, and cassettes and CDs. Every song on the radio was a shared experience with millions of people you’ll never meet, and everyone knew the words to the chorus when it hit!
Things were different back then in a lot of ways, and I’m glad we can access those memories vividly thanks to the internet.
Just think: We have all the music from those decades at our fingertips along with glimpses of all the cool tech we grew up with (especially the ones we only ever saw on TV or the back of comics and magazine ads!).
There was just something about that time you and I grew up in. We were still in touch with those memories in our 20s. Then things start to fade in our 30s, and sometimes you have to consciously remind yourself you were young once.
But I believe we carry all parts of ourselves throughout our lives, in every season of life we encounter. We just forget that we do.
I’ve spent the last 30+ years of my life figuring out how to remind myself and my generation that our best days are always with us, and that there are still best days to come.
I learned that I’m able to do this through music. This is when I learned that this was my life’s work.
I just want to share something that people can feel, on and off the dancefloor!
~*~ The Timeline ~*~
Where my professional DJ career started! It’s a legendary bar in Manila where I made my name playing 90’s throwbacks full of “guilty” pleasures and radio hits. The crowd came for the nostalgia and stayed for the community, some who I’ve had the pleasure to call my friends today.
Regular at one of Manila’s most iconic queer safe spaces. TxF was a real community and a family. It was a statement that alternative venues are a requirement for culturally diverse megacities. The values I carry today – inclusivity, joy, authenticity – were strengthened here. I believe in the power of community and safe spaces because TxF showed me what was possible.
At the height of the EDM craze, I played festivals across the Philippines. Big stages, bigger crowds, maximum energy. I learned how to move a room of thousands β and how the right song at the right moment can make an entire field feel like home.Β 
Party regulars from those Ponti nights started getting married, and they wanted the same magic so they reached out to me! Weddings are the ultimate Time Warp: two people’s entire shared history, told through music, era by era. 
Now based in Singapore after getting married to the love of my life! 
Building the throwback universe into something more immersive. The drops keep coming and the tech keeps humming along. The Time Warp opens wherever the music plays: Manila, Singapore, and everywhere in between! π¦ππ
~*~ What I Believe ~*~
|
π Authentic, Never Performative
Everything stems from a genuine love of the music and millennial pop culture we grew up in. |
β¨ Joy Is The Goal
Whether it’s a club performance or a 4-hour wedding DJ set, the aim is a shared experience of unapologetic joy on the dancefloor. |
|
π Connective Nostalgia
This millennial throwback universe is about a shared memory that brings people closer. |
πΉTangible Memories
There’s power in objects you can hold. Glass screens don’t provide the same stimulation as tactile buttons, knobs, shutters… the list goes on. These tiny stimulations engage sensations long forgotten. |
|
π Inclusivity Is Non-Negotiable
Rooted in the Today x Future ethos. The Time Warp is a safe space for everyone. ALWAYS.Β |
ποΈ Craft Matters
The remixes, the DJ sets and playlists, the vintage tech… intent is at the heart of every choice. |
