A bittersweet moment as we reflect on our time with Sanjiv, as he finishes up his 5-and-a-half-year journey as our Marketing & Bookings Manager here at Glamorama.
Beginning as an eager Marketing Manager, Sanjiv entered Glamorama with fresh ideas, unwavering passion, and the ultimate ‘can do’ attitude - keen to learn anything and everything he could. From tech and design to how to run the bar - you name it, Sanjiv wanted to know it. His curiosity and dedication came from a hunger to make every aspect of the music scene his wheelhouse, and we can confidently say he achieved exactly that.
Beyond Glamorama’s walls, Sanjiv made it his business to stay switched on to the scene, becoming the go-to guy who seemed to know every event happening on any given weekend. That deep knowledge of the industry is exactly what he brought with him when he took over bookings - since then, he’s transformed Glamorama with a considered approach to every detail, always led by an instinct for what the scene needed next. Sanjiv has poured his soul into creating unforgettable nights, always with the music at the forefront.
From 30 Years of Wiggle Records, to the X-Coast DJ Competition, and the madness of the Intercell x Partiboi69 Afterparty - Sanjiv was working hard behind the scenes to make it all happen. His ability to connect with others, recognise talent, and foresee where the industry was heading - somehow doing it all in an organised chaos we will never quite understand.
You may also recognise Sanjiv from behind the decks through his alias “Slumdog,” one of Glamorama’s best resident DJs.
This isn’t goodbye - it’s see you soon. On the dance floor, behind the booth, or by the bar - we know we’ll see you, with a round of Agwa Bombs on the way and a Peroni Red in hand. And if not, we’ll hear those squeaky shoes coming from a mile away, as they make their weekly pilgrimage to Viet Rose Bakery.
We are forever thankful for Sanjiv’s passion, guidance and devotion. An irreplaceable part of Glamorama’s story and Melbourne’s nightlife.
Wishing you all the best for what’s next, Jizzy.
Love, Glam.
