As the bar developed, so has Gari and continues to DJ and promote some of best loved nights includingBeer Pong and Jailhouse Rock.
Henry Otim aka Phat Kontrolaz has always had an ear for music; sounds literally excite him! But it wasn’t until he really felt the atmosphere that he discovered the energy & expression within him; it wasn’t until he started experimenting with different genre of music as a disc jockey that he realised he wanted to entertain and share...
