Samurai Del is the alias of Seattle-based artist Alex Lawrence. Producing music since 2011 and DJ'ing since 2017, Samurai Del's music blends R&B, boogie, funk, house, hip-hop, alternative, and pop to create a fresh, funky, and fluid sound.

For his exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Samurai Del pieces together a super smooth and sleek set of house, funk, boogie, R&B, and pop-forward club vibes, sharing the 3 words "groovy," "ethereal," and "sunset" to describe his mix. On this ideal nighttime cruising soundtrack, he shares music that has been a major part of his life as well as a few of his own unreleased tracks.
