Kristen Azan, known professionally as Bambii, is a Canadian DJ and producer,[1] based in Toronto. She rose to popularity through the Toronto nightclub scene.[2] In June 2023 she performed at Melbourne's Rising arts festival.[3] Around that time, Pitchfork characterized her as "a queer club innovator whose exhilarating, rave-ready songs exist at the crossroads of jungle, dancehall, drum’n’bass, and UK garage."[4]

Infinity Club was released on August 4, 2023. The release was rated four out of five stars by NME,[5] and was a shortlisted nominee for the 2024 Polaris Music Prize.[6] The EP also won the Juno Award for Electronic Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2024.[7]
