THAILAND: Sawatdee khrap People!



Back on Aotearoa soil now after a crazy nine days in Bangkok and its surrounding provinces from its city centre to Hua Hin to Ratchaburi to Kachanaburi - this journey has been by far the most exciting and interesting time I have had away from home.

We were there to play at the Honda Festival in Hua Hin where they were expecting around 100,000 people but instead there was 300,000 people. The venue is 1km long within a 10km beach with a variety of stages and music along the perimeter of the dance floor which happens to be the ocean.

Met some of the most beautiful people I have had the opportunity to meet on my travels. Big ups to Cha-Cha and Gaz from Shanghai (we will be seeing you soon!), Dan 'the mad Irish' Monaghan (simply picturesque bruv)

Words cannot express the gratitude and thanks to the Thailand Massive especially the Kinetic Spectrum Crew DJ Orawan and DJ Dusty Grooves, Dragon (monsta tracks bruv), Thaitanium (wassup Khan, Day, J, Gow, keep on grindin'), AWhatUp Radio, Paulo (you Philipino crazy ya'll!), Petchy and Sander (who would've thought from Welly to Bangkok?!?) Nut and Blah (thank you for everything), Brother DJ Seed (thank you for the opportunity and hip-hop love), Dom (thank you once again for the hospitality), to anyone I may have missed because of the lack of sleep and mad work ethic me and my crew had to have to pull this all off - did I mention that I shot a music video while we were there too??? Yep - to hit your screens soon.

Here are a few pictures from the Sor Vorapin Gym off Jakkrapong Road in Bangkok where we shot the video Superhuman Emcees featuring The Mint Chicks....Big Ups to Chalermphol, Black Tiger, Black Diamond, The Prince and Jakee.

Also shout-outs to 808 (the illest sound system I have ever heard in a club! Dubstep ill) and Cosmic at RCA (thank you for the opportunity to play, enjoyed the band before us too!)

Khorb koon khrap - Thailand Massive, we will definitely be back soon!
