DECEMBER 15: JungleBird Saturdays with Mutual Collective
Whilst living in Bali, Tristan submerged himself into the deep depths of underground music. Whether it would be House or Hip Hop, he always found himself halfway through the night wondering how he ended up in the grimiest spots in town. In turn, he fell in love with anything and everything that wasn’t playing on HitzFM. He became enlightened. Now Tristan is a house addict, he literally has an anxiety attack and needs to take 8 valiums whenever Bruno Mars gets played. He started actively DJing throughout 2016 to gain inspiration from a collective of genres and artists.
