This month, we’re joined by Manila Spice — a UK-raised, half-Filipino DJ based in Amsterdam. A residency with Defusedmood—one of Southeast Asia’s key D&B collectives—shaped his tactile mixing style, rooted in sharp percussion and experimental bass. He is a co-founder of Loma Sound, a platform that hosts non-profit events and channels surplus funds to grassroots organizations, charities, and initiatives supporting music, arts, and culture. Projects supported include Boardersnotborders, Wayoutarts, Embracenederland, Musikarama, and Stichtingdevrolijkheid.
