“Supes Base [which stems from a culturally relevant trend of the mid-2010s when Americans were shortening words like “supes amaze”; thus, Supes Base is the super basic way of saying "super basic"], who's real name is Justina Nguyen, has been immersed in music all of her life.”

Supes Base [which stems from a culturally relevant trend of the mid-2010s when Americans were shortening words like “supes amaze”; thus, Supes Base is the super basic way of saying "super basic"], who's real name is Justina Nguyen, has been immersed in music all of her life. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she began studying classical piano at age 5 and competed in performance + repertoire, as well as theory + composition during her childhood through young adulthood. She also picked up the oboe along the way, as well as joined percussion + drumline in school. What started out as an extracurricular skill and activity that was imposed upon her by her parents morphed into a lifelong, innate passion. In 2017 in Chicago, with the encouraging words of friends, family, and strangers, Supes Base decided to reincarnate her musical chops through the curation of the music that engrosses her, driven by the orchestration of human connection throughout a space or environment--encouraging unspoken conversation between performer and audience. She quickly realized that the music she played resonated with people from all different backgrounds with both similar and divergent tastes in music. Music has always been her genuine form of internal expression. Forming that visceral bond with other people can be so powerful; even the slightest nod, cracked smile, or foot tap from a person amplifies those intrinsic micro-moments we all live for. Music comes in all sizes and shapes, and vibestigation is her strength. It’s even more material to work with folks/entities with specific intentions and values that align with her own, namely tied to cultural and social topics to educate, support, and empower communities. She’s played at Cannes Lions Festival, Lollapalooza, + Chicago Pride Fest and currently has residencies all over NYC and Chicago, including Virgin Hotels, Equinox, and Soho House.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, Mad Tropical, Love's Club · often with la Monz, Harp la Monz, @KungFlow, none of them here that night

the whole biography
lovetempo is the brainchild of Mattie Safer, known for his work as the singer and bassist of Poolside and The Rapture. Since its inception, Safer has fused saudade sentimentality and jazz-funk excursions with modern dancefloor sensibilities. Through body, soul, and basslines, lovetempo explores the triumphs and travails of the heart. “lovetempo is in many ways the perfect musical project for me,” says Safer. “It gives me an avenue to explore the soul, disco, and house music that makes up my list of desert island delights, and the mental space to work through the loneliness, longing, and sublime sweetness of modern romance with my lyrics.” lovetempo’s most recent EP is Live Or Die By Love, released in February 2025 on toucan sounds. The four-track release includes three original songs—the 90s house-influenced anthem "Live Or Die By Love", and two smooth disco cuts, "We Can Make It Happen" and "Part-Time Love Affair"—plus a remix of the title track by house music legend (and longtime Frankie Knuckles collaborator) Eric Kupper. The title track premiered on Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide FM radio program and was featured on Laurent Garnier’s [DEEP]search FIP radio show. Tracks from the EP have appeared on Spotify’s ‘Metropolis’ and ‘Jazz House’ playlists and were added to rotation at KCRW, KEXP, and Jazz FM, among others. “Maybe In Another Life”, released in November 2024, is lovetempo’s most impactful single to date—a slow-burning disco groove driven by soaring strings, heartache, and undeniable rhythm. The track received widespread airplay on BBC 6Music, KCRW, and Jazz FM, earned placements on Spotify’s ‘Pollen’ and ‘Fresh Finds’ playlists, and was championed by Gilles Peterson across both BBC and Worldwide FM. A remix by Bosq brought the tune deeper into global dancefloor territory. In April 2025, lovetempo released the But I Do (Extended) EP on Razor-N-Tape, expanding the original single (a collaboration with Dougie Stu of Brijean) with DJ-focused remixes from Crackazat, Daisybelle, and From House To Disco. The extended package further cemented Safer’s place in the international underground dance scene. In May, Safer collaborated with UK producer Sasha GiGi on the single “All My Life.” The track has been featured on Spotify’s ‘Pollen,’ ‘Metropolis,’ ‘All New Dance,’ and ‘UK House Music’ playlists, and received airplay on BBC Radio 1. lovetempo’s journey began with a self-titled 2023 debut EP on Razor-N-Tape, which garnered critical acclaim and extensive radio support from KCRW and Worldwide FM. That release led to a U.S. tour with 79.5 and headlining shows in New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, and Austin. Recent live highlights include a performance for WFUV and Co-Sign as part of New York Music Month. As a DJ, Safer has played recent sets in NYC, LA, San Francisco, Hawaii, and Mexico. He also contributed a DJ mix to Razor-N-Tape’s Apple Music DJ series. And recently released an extended version of “Same Ole Love” The Sunset Manifesto Vol. 2 compilation on Too Slow To Disco, as well as a remix for NY indie darlings GIFT.House on 4, Nu-Disco on 4, Deep House on 3 and Disco on 3. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Delusions Of Grandeur (1), Good Company Records (3) (1) and Lovetempo (1); their RA profile also lists Razor-N-Tape, Toucan Sounds, Northern Spy and Captured Tracks. labels on their catalogued releases and on their RA profileRecently at Danger Danger, The Sultan Room, Good Room · often with Xica Soul, Moriah Plaza, vikmatic, none of them here that night
