Bangkok Podcast 52: DJ Octo

If you've found yourself out at a club at any time during the
last 5 or 6 years in Bangkok, chances are you're familiar with DJ
Octo. As one of the best known and most popular DJ's in town, he
spins at hot venues like Q Bar and Bed Supperclub, and
collaborates with a wide network of musicians, videographers,
performers and artists to keep Bangkok's party crowds going late
into the night.


But just like many others who move to Bangkok, Octo came to
Bangkok with a much different plan ten years ago. From retreating
to forest monasteries, to scuba diving on Ko Tao, to sweating
away in the 9-5 grind, he tells us what it's like entertaining
crowds of thousands, how technology has completely revolutionized
the industry, and what song you should ask him to play if you
want to get punched in the face.


Greg and Tony also talk about the many holidays in the month of
May, and Greg ponders if he inadvertently contributed to the
brutal death of a poor pigeon in Lumpini Park.
