Bangkok/Hong Kong Icon DJ Antwone

[mckey]

Fleshbot.com has a blog entry today on DJ Antwone / DJ Anthony Sandstrom. DJ Antwone was accused by one admirer of being a bigger gay icon in Asia than Madonna.

Wouldn't it be great is some new club in NYC (like say Probe) brought in DJ Antwone for a guest DJ gig?

DJ Antwone aka: Anthony Sandstrom began his career in the mid 90's. "Grasped by the clutches" of the underground rave movement in Vancouver, Canada he began his appreciation for electronica music. After many late nights of these social interactions so began the infatuation with the turntables. Musically, DJ Antwone has always been heavily influenced by the old classics and the disco era. Adding the flavor of these musical genres into the latest 'cutting edge' House sound with his tactical prowess on the decks, DJ Antwone has emerged an international DJ with his own blend of West Coast funky house. Known to lay down either a sweet blend of smooth groovin' funky house or whip the dance floor into a 'frenzy' with a hard pumpin' funky tech tribal set. One thing, for certain, there will always be an element of funky in DJ Antwone's music. http://www.thedjlist.com/djs/ANTWONE/

æ: Any interesting anecdotes when people come up to you and say that they recognise you from the mag?

DJ antwone: Oh ya, ha ha, there had been some funny ones. One guy from Taiwan said I was a bigger gay icon then “Madonnaâ€â€¦ I don’t know what he was on, but either way it was a very nice compliment. He was very respectful and I appreciate that.
