Worldwide – Singapore superstar DJ JT, better known as “The Remix Master” once again made history by joining the line up of American Internet radio station SwurvRadio.com. Recently celebrated by Top40Charts.com as the first ever Top 40 remixer with three #1 songs on the Top40 Charts, JT is the first Singaporean to have a weekly radio show on an American station recorded live in Singapore and streamed to global listeners via the Internet powerhouse station SwurvRadio.com. JT will anchor the station’s Sunday Electronic Music showcase.

Born in Singapore with a passion for all genres of music, The Remix Master especially gravitates toward electronic music. “My appetite for music is endless. I love it all – trance, electro, dubstep, techno. Anything with a nasty bass line, and I’m there” says JT. His musical journey led him to composing his own beats, dance and trance tracks. DJ JT’s passion for music has taken him across the globe, and he has performed in clubs all over the planet, from The Guvernment to Tunnel, from Webster Hall to Lush. Featured on radio stations across the globe.

Recently JT grabbed headlines once again as he “created another historical landmark in his career by landing three songs in just two weeks at the number one spot for the best remix of that particular song title. All of which remained at number one for 2 weeks in a row, an outstanding feat for any remix DJ of this generation.” (Top40charts.com)

“It sure seems that [dance/electronica music] has been deemed fashionable these days to warrant its own long overdue primetime slot to the masses,” Deadmau5 said in a post on his blog. “This concept, if anything, is going to catapult the awareness of [the genre] through the roof.” (Grammy.com)

“Throughout my career, I have appreciated and am very thankful for the support from Sirius XM BPM, Native Instrumentals, 102.7 KIIS-FM, HOT 97 FM and Trance FM. I also know that my success would not have been possible without the love and loyal support from my fans, which continue to be the heart and soul of my passion For that I am humbled and eternally grateful.” says DJ JT.

Globally recognized DJs such as JT are now in a position to break out of the mainstream shadows and claim their place at the roundtable that sets the pace and taste for the music world at-large. Exciting and engrossing remixes, unique blends of sounds and vocal pieces have created an undeniably potent music culture once reserved for the shadows…not anymore and DJ JT is the anchor of the EDM movement coming from Asia, for example his more than 300,000 Twitter followers and the fact that his recent The Band Perry “If I Die Young”, remix garnered nearly 14,000 plays in just two days speak volumes to the overwhelming popularity of this DJ.
