MRCHINA

A series of live shows where the best Italian and international DJs/artists recall the cultural and musical journey from the past to the future of Touch The Wood.

This is the first of four special episodes in collaboration with Engine Gin, broadcast live from Prato Chiosco in Rome.

Samuel Chinapah, aka MRCHINA, is a DJ and producer straight outta Rome with Mauritian roots and a deep love for groove. Growing up in the suburbs between his dad’s jazz and soul CDs and his brother’s hip hop MP3s, he was destined to dig deep into sound.
After experimenting with instruments during his teenage years, he found his true path behind the decks in 2018 through Touch The Wood — and hasn't stopped since.

His style is a vibrant fusion of hip hop, baile funk, afrobeat, with smooth jazz and soulful vibes running through it all.
