Description

DJ Fasmwa is a Caribbean musical specialist, based in Sydney, Australia whose focus is on the musical genres of Soca, Dancehall & Reggae. DJ FASMWA has a unique bond to these genres due to his Caribbean ancestry. He understands the nuances of the genre, and allows the listeners to experience the very best in the music, whilst taking them on a musical journey. #caribbeanmusicinnotahobbyitisapassion He started hearing Caribbean DJs and music played as a young boy, growing up closely with his Caribbean uncles and aunts. This is where his journey with music started, soon learning to play the piano, steel drum and guitar. In 1996, he did a work experience placement at 88.9fm radio Skidrow, on the ‘African Vibrations’ show, which was the introduction into the DJing world. He immediately fell in love with the electric responses he would have when selecting songs and playing them. DJ Fasmwa has since played alongside many artists that have toured in Australia including Elephant Man, Brick N Lace, Demarco, Lukie D, Cecile and Anthony B. After a successful working relationship and being part of the SpinDMusic brand, from 2006 – 2010 in Sydney, he took a year off and travelled throughout the Caribbean. Whilst travelling, DJ Fasmwa played in Costa Rica, Suriname, Trinidad, Jamaica, and also in The Netherlands and Greece. DJ Fasmwa started the ‘Prescription Nightclub’ brand (2013), which is known for its unadulterated, unfiltered, Caribbean musical experience in Sydney, Australia. He is the host of the weekly radio show ‘Prescription Radio’ which has been running since 2013. DJ Fasmwa is also musical consultant for Caribbean Sydney. In 2018, he embarked on a history making concert, bringing modern day Soca artist, Nailah Blackman to Australia, which was a first of it’s kind for Australia. DJ FASMWA helped promote the campaign and was also the DJ for the artist during her first concert. It is safe to say that DJ Fasmwa is one of the most dedicated and passionate Djs when it comes to Caribbean styles; whether it is a Carnival session, dancehall set or a big people jam, he has got you covered.
