Emanuel found his calling in the underground rave scene dancing and playing vinyl at house parties throughout San Francisco. In 2000, he took a one-way ticket to Thailand, where his passion for music became a full-time career. He quickly became a key figure in Southeast Asia's electronic music scene, building a reputation through long-running residencies at Bangkok's iconic Tapas Room and Bed Supperclub, where he held residencies for nine years, followed by four years in Phuket. Over the years, Emanuel has played across 15 countries and filled two passports, taking his sound throughout Southeast Asia and beyond, including Thailand, Maldives, India, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Korea, India, Mexico, England and more. Known for deep, genre-blending sets and a strong connection to the dance floor, Emanuel brings an experienced, vinyl-rooted approach to every room he plays.
