About Me

the taste of a real man can only be invented by a trader vic's barman. mr mai tai has been in the rare record-playing society of the pacific islands since childhood. in addition to creating voodoo-type atmoscapes and dance floors like cannibal ceremonies, he enjoys drums from the jungle and animal love-bites.rumours have it mr mai tai is actually one half of the famous exotica dj duo 'the tiki two' who worked wonders on ella fitzgerald and the duke's 'caravan' in 2004. but this has been denied by the artist himself. he has djed at the stage shows of indian magicians and on the boats of new york burlesque artists, played records also in snow white's forest in germany, at parisian jazz clubs and dutch theatres. he has a love of oriental bath houses, has smuggled hookah tobacco across many borders and managed the entertainment at london's leading tiki bar 'the south london pacific'. on the side mr mai tai is also a venerable collector of unusual taxidermy, leather-bound books on expeditions and quality shrunken heads.mr mai tai's aim in djing is to lovingly manipulate the emotions of his audience. if you have frequented an event at which mr mai tai is laying on records, you too have probably been victim of his subtle mood-toying, without ever realising it.mr mai tai is currently based in sydney where he is resident dj at australia's biggest burlesque bonanaza, sugartime.
