Having spun at Nation.04 and the Nation.03 recovery party at Tunnel, David is no stranger to the Asian gay circuit. He is currently the prima DJ and music producer for HX Productions in Hong Kong and has played in Taiwan and Hong Kong extensively as well as Club G in Seoul and Paradise Ball 04 at AgeHa Club in Tokyo.

DJ SAWA, one of the top DJs in Tokyo club circuit and who started his residency in Tokyo's Paradise Ball@Ageha this year, made his Singapore debut at the "Make Love Not War" Opening Party on Aug 7. He had notably released Progress + Transcend, the first progressive house mix CD ever made in Japan in 2000. Following its success, he released Compiled and mixed by DJ SAWA under John Digweed's Bedrock which is arguably the world's most famous and respectable progressive house label.

The compilation is produced by Singaporean George Leong, a DJ in his own right after paying his dues in producing albums for Asian divas and superstars including Sandy Lam, and the late Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui. George was last heard at the "Make Love Not War" Opening Party.

CD1 is a classic David S stomping house set featuring dance #1's Milkshake and Strict Machine, and includes two of the summer's anthems - Money and Lola's Theme while CD2 features DJ Sawa's magical down tempo set that invokes classics by Moby and Pet Shop Boys, alongside the divine sounds of Lisa Shaw and Ryksopp.
