The 15-Min Flash Mix isn’t just a platform for emerging artists, but also to showcase unsheathed edges of established acts who’ve hustled to forge our scene. And when it comes to longstanding tastemakers, RAAJ is an indomitable don.

RAAJ is of course the fresh alias of Joshua P, a beloved nightlife figure whose pioneering contributions include A Phat Cat Collective with NINETEEN80 and Rails, Mandala Club, and recently Behind The Green Door. Across the decades he’s imparted a Midas touch of mastery as a promoter, venue owner and marketing ace, and naturally, that translates to his platinum skills on the decks which he flourishes as the reinvented RAAJ.

From veteran to visionary, RAAJ sees Joshua embracing his cultural roots and you’ll grasp this in his 15-Min Flash Mix. He fuses electronic tropes with Indian influences ranging from Tamil to Punjabi. It bobs and throbs with a slow-paced swagger, smouldering with a downtempo yet dance-conscious temperament. It plays around with contemporary urban flavours like trap and jungle, illustrating the hybrid ingenuity of RAAJ as an apex mixmaster. Bow down to the one and only RAAJ.
