Sunday Sessions

This set was recorded on a stormy afternoon in Bambu and feels like a return to the original Phangan vibe, reminiscent of those beach parties in years gone by when speakers blew up because of heavy tropical rain, but the music was so good that everyone just kept on dancing anyway through the downpour. Enjoy two soulful hours of beautiful warm electronic grooves to uplift your spirit and energise your earthly self on the wettest monsoon afternoon, kick off your shoes and dance through the storm!

Bambu - Sound of the Jungle Lounge (Vol 1)

This second part of the set delves into some deeper sounds, everything from funky Afro House to pumping Progressive and a gentle curve down into expansive late night gems..

The Sunday Session Vol 1 'The Portal Opens' (Pt 2) @ Bambu Huts

No doubt, the most epic birthday ever and what better way to celebrate it than throw down a 5 hour set! As Bambu Huts proudly reached it's one year milestone this auspicious date just happened to fall on my own birthday so clearly it was divinely necessary to bring everyone together in a a joyful celebration of life, connection, music, dance and creativity..

I won't ever forget the moment when I stopped the music halfway through my set and requested that everyone sing one song together, not something you'll see everyday in a DJ set! I really wasn't sure it would work, perhaps I would be singing all on my own, but in that moment something beautiful happened and there were suddenly hundreds of us singing 'What A Wonderful World' in harmony :)

No coincidence that I chose this song, which I ended the very first ever Sunday Session with, on New Years Day 2023 and has always been one of my all time favourites. This whole set is an uplifting journey featuring lots of Bambu favourites from the last 6 months, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we all did on the day, a truly epic party that will live long in the memory and here is captured for all of you, forever...

Thank you all for the support, it is incredible what we've achieved in one year and we have so much more to come! Stay tuned to the Jungle Lounge for the evolution of our journey and as always, expect the unexpected !!!

The Sunday Session Vol 2 'The Birthday Session'

Recorded live at Bambu Huts on Feb 4th 2024, this is my afternoon set as I opened the portal for our incredible guest DJs Chus and La Santa, who absolutely rocked the house in the night time! This daytime mix starts off from a place of total stillness as I wanted to set a peaceful tone after the insane high season of the last weeks, before building through some emotive and beautiful organic and afro house, featuring a lot of tracks from the excellent Redolent label run by our special guest Chus. An unforgettable night ended with the three of us jamming together on the flightdeck of the Bambu spaceship and an unbelievable vibe on the dancefloor, this was one for the history books!

The Sunday Session Vol 3 'Peace Portal'

Slinky, sultry sunset vibes are what's on offer here, kicking off with some deep grooves that build from organic and afro explorations into pumping progressive and uplifting house, before culminating in a furious melodic techno peak, as the dancefloor was on FIRE that evening! Finally returning as we always do to the soulful uplifting gospel of real house music...

The Sunday Session Vol 4 'Pyjama Party'

New Years Day 2024 was a very special occasion as it marked exactly one year since the first ever Bambu Huts party, it's hard to believe it's only been 52 sundays since we opened.. so much has happened, so many great memories already that it seems like a lifetime! 

To commemorate this milestone I played a timeless set of my very best musical gems, personal favourites, island classics and deep, sexy house music all the way.. This was an unforgettable night in the Playgirl Mansion and the perfect way to welcome in the new year and celebrate all we've achieved in our first cycle around the sun!

The Sunday Session Vol 5 'A Night at the Playgirl Mansion'

On a gorgeous April evening I stepped onto the flightdeck at sunset and an unbelievable energy was on the dancefloor at Bambu, so I knew I had to bring my best.. This high energy mix features some of my favourite tracks of 2024 so far, from the likes of Space Motion, Artbat, Silver Panda, Moojo, Temper Trap, Andhim and many more. The entire crowd had hands and fans in the air by the end, an unforgettable moment, one of the best parties we ever had full of love, vibes & togetherness!
