As a DJ, Wes has an affinity for sounds from across the globe, both past and present. With a passionate interest in history, he’s always keen to track down the stories behind the music he plays, traversing genres from Brazilian boogie to Cape Verdean funaná and soulful Chicago house.
Day or night, Wes is always down to share his favourite tunes and dancefloor digs. He knows how to work a dancefloor at night but also delights in serenading living rooms in the morning. Tune in once a month to Rotterdam's Operator Radio and you’ll find Wes behind the controls hosting his breakfast show 'Joy in the Morning', a show in which he shares new finds and personal favourites and ventures beyond the rhythms he plays in clubs.
But Wes' influence extends beyond the DJ booth too. Not only is he an integral part of Utrecht’s Stranded FM crew, he’s also one of the driving forces behind U-Town’s club night Weerd, putting his stamp on the city's nightlife scene.
