Unearthing the Memories of Our Formative Years in ‘Virgin Labfest XX’s Set A: Bubot’
The first set of every festival teases us with what to expect moving forward, but it’s never a concrete indicator of what will happen next. Much like in real life, our childhood experiences may shape our future but do not necessarily define them.

Bubot—a term closely tied to immaturity and underdevelopment—captures a moment that once existed, before and during our early teens. This set forces us to revisit a time repressed by college and work, resurfacing memories indiscriminately: the good, the bad, and the so-so.
