As the main dude behind Loosely Based, Alfonso Tan finds typing in 3rd person about himself to be silly, yet oddly necessary. Although his presence from behind the decks (vs. the dance floor) is relatively new, he has quickly gained traction, playing for the likes of LOST, Nark Magazine, and his own collective, Loosely Based, at popular venues throughout the city, including Monkey Loft, Re-Bar, and Kremwerk. If you’ve attended anything that Alfonso has played at in the last year, you’ll know that he loves tunes that groove, bounce, and slap. His focus is on keeping his audience energized, and he loves providing a wave for his listeners to ride. His library will be stacked, so be prepared to go off.
