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 !!!
