Mina & Bryte bring their high-energy global club sound to Asia
After Singapore’s Behind the Green Door on March 7, the duo plays Bangkok’s Katsu on March 8 followed by a Mina solo gig at Shenzhen's Oil Club on March 14
UK producer Mina and Ghanaian rapper-vocalist Bryte are bringing their fusion of UK, Ghanaian, and global club sounds to two stops in Asia.
The first stop for the duo will be at Singapore's Behind the Green Door on March 7 for an event hosted in collaboration with the local Tropika crew. Joining them on the line-up to get the night started will be Ramesh and Suren.
After their gig in the Lion City, they'll head over to Bangkok for a one-night-only performance at Katsu (previously BEAM Lounge) on March 8. Warming up for the duo will be local stalwarts Sriracha Czaddy and Daddy Ronron.
Mina will then have a solo show at Shenzhen's Oil Club on March 14.
First crossing paths in Accra back in 2017, Mina and Bryte instantly bonded over their love for club music. Their collaborations have since become a staple in underground and global dance scenes, culminating in the 2021 joint EP ‘Abeka Bugatti’.
Together, they’ve lit up stages at Glastonbury, Primavera, Nyege Nyege, and headlined London’s Village Underground and Jazz Cafe.
Their music has earned nods from tastemakers like Ben UFO, Branko, and Tom Ravenscroft, securing radio play on BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, and Beats 1.

Mina’s production is a bold, syncopated fusion of Afrobeats, dancehall, and UK funky, shaped by collaborations spanning Peru, Sierra Leone, and beyond.
Her debut album ‘Flight Paths’ connected global rhythms from Ghana, Jamaica, Brazil, Spain, Peru, and America with London’s underground energy, while her ‘Now That’s What I Call Mina’ remix series reimagined 90s and 00s classics through her unique sonic lens.

Bryte, meanwhile, has carved out a singular space in the afro-electronic landscape, blending afrobeats, rap, and experimental club sounds.
His upcoming album ‘Stay Connect’, dropping this April, is a genre-hopping, multilingual journey across tempos and styles, featuring production from Mina, Karma Kid, Lamsi, and more. The album captures Bryte’s evolution from Accra’s battle rap circuit to a globe-trotting innovator in electronic music.
