"One Night in Bangkok" may not be the most representative song about Thailand's capital city, but when it comes to Thai music, VJ Utt doesn't mind spending more than one night compiling the best songs for you. "I tried out at a casting at Hard Rock Cafe in Bangkok," recalled Utt, when asked how he became a VJ. He now hosts "MTV Bangkok Jam," a show that every music fan should watch to get in tune with the latest musical trends from Thailand. In his spare time, Utt enjoys collecting books and comics, watching movies, and playing sports. He also indulges in his favorite Thai music and songs by his favorite rock bands, especially Blur and Garbage. As to which genres of music he likes best, he says it all depends on his mood. A pet-lover, Utt has two dogs -- a Bull Terrier and a Jack Russell Terrier. When asked which city he enjoys chilling out in the most, he singled out, not a city in U.S.A. nor Thailand, but Tokyo, Japan.
