After shutting its doors for more than a year, North Beach's infamous tiki bar, The Bamboo Hut, is once again open for business!

Come peep it out, sip on a volcano bowl, and get ready for some of the best people-watching on the planet!

Alright, alright, I'll admit it...this one wasn't my idea! I heard a dope blend of Bonde R300's song, "Oh Nanana", on the Coolie Dance riddim but I couldn't find it anywhere! A wise producer/DJ buddy of mine once told me, "If you can't find it, just make it yourself!" So I took some of the same inputs, chopped them up in my own style, added some claps and pads, and the result is something fresh that bangs in the club!

As we head into the New Year I'll be working to expand my presence in the East Bay and I'm proud to announce that you can catch me at one of my favorite Oakland venues on Saturday, January 5: Luka's Taproom. Located at the corner of Broadway and West Grand, this bar and grill by day becomes a busy nightclub after 10pm. A sizable dance floor and killer sound system complement a stellar drink menu and make this 80+ year-old building one of the best venues around. Early arrival is strongly suggested so assemble your crew and meet me at Luka's!
