About Dwson

After the SA house music boom between 2010 and 2012, many local producers took to their DAWs to begin creating their own flavour. With the prominence of DJs like Kent and Euphonik, the period became saturated in cheesy, predictable “commercial” house, which dominated clubs and charts across the country. But from the ashes of the once overplayed genre, rose a new generation of producers—honing their own sound against the waves of mediocrity Over the last two years, Ashwin Julies, better known as Dwson (pronounced Dawson) has been mastering his dubby deep-soulful house compositions, landing him his first release on Danish label Deepwit Recordings in 2015. He has since grown in leaps and bounds, releasing on local labels Just Move Records [JMR] and Cruel Section, and in the last year, has had his first taste of radio play from two of South Africa’s leading radio DJs. Dwson is now a sought-after DJ and producer, forming part of a new wave of unadulterated DJs pushing the “dubbier” side of house music in Cape town. We caught up with Dwson to find out more about his journey into the music industry.
