Coh-hul has published his playlist for his new 'Play It Loud' 15.

Coh-hul has published his playlist for Play It Loud episode 15. Scientific Sound Asia radio is the Asian electronic music station, promoter and DJ agency serving China, Vietnam, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and a growing global audience.

Coh-hul is an established DJ and producer based in Ho Chi Minh City and has been a core artist on our DJ agency roster for several years. His breakthrough moment came with a major New Year’s Eve party in Northern Thailand in 2015 and since then he has continued to impress crowds with both his musical selections and his energetic approach behind the decks.

His predominant genres are Tech House and Tech Funk, shaped by his long-standing admiration for labels such as Dirtybird, This Ain’t Bristol, Relief, Snatch! and Perfect Driver. His sets lean heavily on funky drum patterns, weighty basslines and futuristic Sci-Fi influenced melodies. One of his strengths is knowing exactly when to push the energy and when to hold back, giving the crowd space before lifting them again.

Based in Saigon for the last four and a half years, he has hosted his own Tech House nights and brought a string of wild parties to the city. Visitors to Ho Chi Minh City may have caught him at one of his many residencies, with the monthly AfterDark event co-hosted with Broma: Not A Bar standing out as a firm favourite.

He is also a DJ member of the DTOX party brand and has been involved with WHAT? Events and Scientific Sound Asia events. Across the city he has performed at The Lighthouse, Saigon Soul Pool Party, Piu Piu, Upper Saigon, Hideout, Last Call, Indika, Saigon Outcast and Rogue, among many others. Outside Saigon, he has appeared at The Mui Ne Music and Arts Festival and at The Rock Island Club on Phu Quoc Island for New Year’s Eve.

His admiration for Dirtybird Records led him to travel solo to the Dirtybird Campout in the United States in 2017. During that trip, he set up a renegade party at Venice Beach in Los Angeles and performed at Stacy’s at Melrose in Phoenix, Arizona. The following summer brought one of his biggest shows to date at Le Chapiteau in Marseille, where he played to a sold-out crowd and delivered what he still considers one of the best sets of his career.

In recent years, he has invested heavily in production equipment, built his own studio and shifted his focus towards releasing original music. His long-term aim is to secure releases on respected labels and continue building his reputation as both a producer and DJ.

His previous show spotlighted the House of Hustle label, delivering a powerful selection of its signature heavy-hitting tracks. This month, the show is dedicated to Be One Records.

Be One is run by Miguel Bastida and Ruiz DB, two highly respected artists in the underground Techno and Tech House scenes. Both are from Granada in Spain and are recognised as leading figures in their country’s electronic music community.

The label focuses on groove-led, energetic tracks with strong bass elements and has featured artists such as Ekoboy, Mr Jefferson, Roxy Delgado, Luke Nash, Arzenic, Waitz, Salero, Ukka, Victor Vera, The Freak Factory, Marc Throw, Adam Stacks and many more alongside the label owners themselves. This episode presents a carefully selected mix of Be One’s finest work, followed by a session of Coh-hul’s current favourites. Enjoy the show.

The session opens with the warm, deep house touch of All I Wanna Do before shifting into the classic Chicago flavour of So Happy and the jackin rhythms of Out Of Nowhere. The atmosphere tightens with the deeper tension of No Futuro, setting the stage for the punchier tech house lines of Sink The Pink and the rolling energy of Davaybezdavay. The flow locks into place with the dance floor weight of Wonderland and the bass-driven lift of Take Me As I Am, moving the mix into full club motion.

A heavier stride takes over as 100% Tapped, Lady Of The Night and N.E.T. push the set into darker and more hypnotic territory. The tech house groove strengthens through Electric Mama, Wiggle Jiggle and Dinky Whale, each adding grit and bounce. Momentum continues with the minimal accents of Droids and the house-infused power of Speak To Me, rounding off a confident first half.

The Be One Records label mix begins with La Prueba, Simplificando and One More, establishing a tight minimal and tech house foundation. The drive intensifies through Kicker Machine, So Wack and Front 2 Back, keeping the rhythms sharp and percussive. That energy carries into Square Beat, Tristese and Happy Dance, maintaining a strong peak time edge.

The closing stretch lands with the crisp definition of Get That, the swirling motion of Tornado and the warm groove of Brown Sugar. Final selections, including I Güana Get High, All The Same, Sunar, Moudness and El Himno, seal the episode with focused, club-ready tech house pressure that captures the essence of the Play It Loud series.
