Let's make this birthday one to remember.

64 years old (Born on October 02, 1960)

Happy Birthday to the incredible Django Bates—composer extraordinaire, jazz innovator, and musical magician! Ever since your groundbreaking debut album "Human Chain" in 1986, you've been dazzling us with creativity that defies categorization. Winning Best UK Jazz Composer by The Wire not once but twice (in '87 and again in '90) proves you're timelessly cool—or perhaps just stubbornly brilliant.

From playful improvisations to genre-bending compositions, you continue inspiring musicians worldwide while keeping audiences guessing what's next. May this birthday bring as much joy as your music has brought laughter-filled confusion ("Wait—is it jazz? Classical? Funky space opera?!"). Keep swinging unpredictably—we wouldn't have it any other way!
