Studio Lam
Tucked off Sukhumvit Soi 51, Studio Lam feels like an audio sanctuary for Bangkok’s adventurous souls. Born in August 2014 out of DJ Maft Sai’s ZudRangMa radio project and record label, it evolved into a sonic bar that defies mainstream trends. The setting is deliberately understated: repurposed from an old Japanese restaurant, it offers dim lighting, minimalist décor, and a makeshift dance area. The real centerpiece, though, is a custom tube sound system designed for purity—aural fidelity that elevates every beat, from molam and luk thung (Thai folk and rap-like rural genres) to African, Latin swing, jazz, funk, and soul. At Studio Lam, the music doesn’t compete—it inspires. Expect rotating live performances and DJ sets that draw from every corner of the global music spectrum. Whether you're vibing to Isan’s thrumming rhythms or discovering Afro-funk remixes, the soundscape is curated with bold flair. Drinks lean local and expressive. Ya Dong—an herbal Thai spirit amalgamated with various fruits and herbs—gets playful. Here you’ll find Ya Dong cocktails reimagined, alongside a modest selection of beers and soft drinks. Open Tuesday through Sunday from evening into late night, Studio Lam’s hours and music schedule encourage exploration after dark. Regulars and first-timers congregate for the immersive vibes and the sense of musical discovery that pulses in every corner. This isn’t just a bar; it’s a community hub where wild playlists sound like home, the locals are curious and creative, and every visit promises fresh rhythms and handcrafted sip experiences.
