Are you ready to DANCE?
Here is the first batch of DJ’s joining Anime Expo 2022 for AX Dance:
FUTURE FUNK MONTHLY (FFM)
Future Funk Monthly (FFM) has been the project of Andrew Turner, an avid fan of the genre and alike since 2014. For 5 years straight, February 2016 – February 2021, FFM personally curated and recorded a mix of songs, released only during that month, from artists all around the world creating and releasing ‘Future Funk’ music. Providing a fresh take and way to stay up to date on who’s releasing what, both veterans and up and coming artists. Along with mixing, FFM has participated in multiple live stream events and festivals within the community and even live concert events before the pandemic. While the monthly mixes have taken a hiatus for the time being, FFM hopes to bring the funky vibes to you in person and keep your feet moving.

Building on a backbone of pumping EDM, including big room house, hardstyle and hardcore, AdvanceRatio aims to deliver pure fun with well-known anthems, unexpected vocal mashups, and above all else, energy.

HYPERLOCK
Jale, better known as HYPERLOCK, is a DJ and producer based in Los Angeles, California. He owes a lot of his roots to a plethora of electronic music found in the Japanese doujin music scene, especially in genres such as UK Hardcore and Progressive House. This is best reflected in his works such as his debut EP “Halo Skies”, which pays homage to a lot of those said influences. With years of experience DJing in real life as well as in the virtual space, he aims to create a live experience that is both energetic and emotional, combining a flow of styles and genres into a seamless mix.
