After Hours 482 on Scientific Sound Asia sees Hypnotised at the helm, welcoming guest DJ Psycho-UK to the show. Scientific Sound Asia is an underground electronic music radio station, DJ agency and promoter for the Asian region, publishing music news and connecting audiences regionally and internationally.


Hypnotised is a DJ and producer from Ghent, Belgium who cut his teeth in progressive house and tech house through appearances at events including I Love Techno and 10 Days of Techno. That early grounding has since taken him to stages across Europe, Africa and beyond.


After Hours, which he co-hosts with PatriZe, airs on TM Radio in the USA, Cosmos Radio in Germany and Scientific Sound Asia in Vietnam. Alongside the show, the pair present AH Digital Essentials on Proton Radio, focused on progressive house.


His monthly show Energetic runs on Progressive Beats Radio in Germany, and guest appearances have spanned Ibiza Global Radio, Frisky Radio, DI FM, Insomnia FM, Fnoob Techno Radio and Urgent FM among others. Club and festival credits include the Amsterdam Dance Event, Deep on Deck Festival in South Africa, Club NL in Amsterdam, Decadance in Ghent and Zanzibar in South Africa, with shared bills alongside Marco Bailey, Tom Hades, Purple Disco Machine, Jesse Rose and Nick Bril.


He founded AH Digital in 2015 as a platform for progressive house, issuing his own material alongside a wider artist roster. The debut EP People from the Otherworld reached fourth place on the Beatport charts with a Rui Da Silva remix, while Infinity peaked at number two in progressive house and trance and number three in techno. A second alias, Man on the Moon, arrived in 2016 with Sense on Bonzai, picking up a Metapop remix contest win and airplay on Studio Brussel.


Label ties have since grown to include Bonzai Progressive, Green Martian, SLC-6 Music, Pro-B-Tech Music and Stellar Fountain among others. Recent output covers Classico with Selected Grooves on OLD SQL Recordings, a remix of Gabbe's Blissing for SINCITY from late 2025, and the ongoing rollout of the collaborative Weird Things rework with PatriZe on AH Digital into 2026.

Guest DJ Psycho-UK (second hour).


DJ Psycho-UK is an East London DJ whose introduction to music came at fourteen when he got his first pair of decks. Growing up during the golden age of hip hop, acid house, hardcore and techno, his influences range from Public Enemy, KRS-1 and Run DMC through to Carl Cox, Mickey Finn, DJ Hype, A Guy Called Gerald, Leftfield, Portishead and Massive Attack.


He came up through the underground squat parties of 1990s London, linking up with the Production House Records crew alongside DMS, The House Crew and X-Static. That environment shaped a sound built around heavy bass, up-tempo beats and funky grooves, drawing on the raw sub-cultures of London's underground at the time.


Regular slots on pirate radio stations including AXE FM and Fantasy FM followed, alongside appearances at venues including Scala, Bagley's Film Studios and 333. His sets have since taken him to the West Indies, Singapore, Australia and Vietnam, where he has played at Piu Piu, Basement, Indika, Cargo Remote, Pogo Beach Club, Dragon Beach and The Lab among others.


Now based in Ho Chi Minh City, he founded Scientific Sound Asia in 2013 as a DJ agency, promotions and event management company bringing international acts to South East Asia. The operation also runs an underground radio station and events programme across the region. His show today features a selection of recent promos and releases across progressive house, melodic techno and Afro house; his other mixes are available on Mixcloud.


After Hours 482 opens with Hypnotised selecting from a range of Progressive House labels. Lightning Effect's Star of the Sky in the Matias Ocaño Remix on Estribo Records sets a warm atmospheric tone before Diego Alvarado's Together on Droid9 develops the mood.


Fermanz and The Crystal Drop's Delusion in the Contribute Translation and XIASOU Remix on Mirror Walk and Gorkiz's Alquimia on Nature Rec carry the hour forward with a consistent melodic quality. Yashar's Running Down the Lake in the Shayan Pasha Remix on Balkan Connection and UNKLE's Reign in the Mariano Mellino and John Cosani Edit sustain the progressive direction.


Rod Notario's Let It Go, Let It Happen and EMPHI's Advance, both on Balkan Connection, continue the label's strong presence in Hypnotised's hour. Albuquerque and Foletto's Splendid Sunrise in the Greenage Remix on 3rd Avenue brings the first hour to a close with a warm and melodic resolution.


Guest DJ Psycho-UK opens the second hour with Redspace and Eleene's Fantomas Rooftop on Area Verde before Gaston Sosa's Creta and Cris Rosales's Akasia, both on SLC-6 Music, develop the progressive direction. Ector Nina's Worldchild on Major Underground then introduces an Afro House quality, its rhythmic energy providing a brief but effective contrast to the progressive selections either side of it.


Redspace and Eleene's Asterism on Monkey League and IndianSoul's Be Alright on Joyride Music follow, the latter's Melodic House and Techno character shifting the register before Steve Arnold's Magma on 64K Recordings returns to progressive territory. Skyhunter's Smile After Sadness and Ruben Hadland's Daydreaming, both on Summer Melody, sustain the melodic direction through the hour's later stages.


Nomas's Cosmo in the Orbit Mix on SLC-6 Music reinforces the Melodic House and Techno strand before Augustine Wrong and Executive Producer's Visceral in the Kassey Voorn Remix on Visceral closes the episode. After Hours 482 is a cohesive two hours, Hypnotised's Balkan Connection-anchored opening giving way to DJ Psycho-UK's more genre-varied and label-diverse guest selection.
