Elijah brings his music & lecture series to Hong Kong & Bangkok

London-based DJ, producer, and creative visionary Elijah is set to bring his dynamic presence to the heart of Bangkok's creative scene on September 15, hosted at Soho House Bangkok and via invitation of y2k and Mixmag Asia.

Fresh from his stop in Hong Kong the day before, Elijah will dive deep into critical thinking, sustainable artistic creation, and building community in today’s rapidly evolving digital world.

Set within the former Eugenia Hotel building and tucked amid vibrant tropical greenery in the lively Sukhumvit neighbourhood, Soho House Bangkok’s intimate setting offers a unique backdrop for these forward-thinking discussions.

Elijah has spent 15 years making his mark on the global electronic music scene. This time, he’ll bring his signature Yellow Squares to life in Bangkok, challenging artists and creatives to break free from traditional structures and embrace bold experimentation in today’s digital world.

Attendees can expect a dynamic and engaging session that challenges their thinking and ignites their creativity.

After the lecture, Elijah will take to the decks from 10pm to 12am, transforming Soho House’s vibrant spaces with his immersive soundscapes.

After successful events in Ho Chi Minh, Tokyo, Manila and across India, Elijah shares with us his excitement about returning to the region, saying: "I'm really happy to be back again to do Bangkok for the first time, and my first event in Hong Kong since 2016! The lectures are constantly evolving through my ideas on creating and sharing work, using social media as a canvas, alternative takes on DJ and club culture and an opportunity to bring together people who may not normally share space and conversations about their respective practices and scenes. I'm DJing too!"

He also enlightens us on how his past experiences in Asia have contributed to enriching his lecture material, stating: "Without knowing the local scenes intimately they force me to make me share my ideas that can be true anywhere, rather than just apply to London, where the infrastructure for what I do has been developed over decades."

"I've been lucky enough to do shows all over, and my time in each place has been brief in relative terms, but I've always tried to do interesting things while I'm on the ground like the Japanese grime set, or recording the lecture with Sai Versailles in Manila, so there is a bit more than just a one-off event," he adds.

With very limited slots available, secure your spot by sending an email to [email protected] with the subject "Elijah-Soho House Bangkok" (for the event in Bangkok) or "Elijah-Eaton HK" (for the event in Hong Kong).
