Joseph Lee - DISTRIKT Music - Episode 150

"This one time at Burning Man..." ...you can let your imagination run wild with finishing that sentence. ;) After 12 years of going to Deep End and DISTRIKT religiously for a 'Dusty Good Time', this year I was honored to be asked to play DISTRIKT, which was my 20th Burn *)^(*. After waking up a little later (than anticipated) from a long night at Mayan Warrior/Robot Heart Hookup out in Deep Playa, I raced over to DISTRIKT, where D.J. Boris Levit was holding things down nicely. Before I even had a chance to take off my camel-back, Boris said, 'this is my last track'. I reached around my neck for my FlashDrive containing my selections for my set at DISTRIKT, with my newest arsenal of secret weapons, and a handful classic gem's... but my Flash-Drive was GONE! It had been around my neck all week. Apparently I left it in the CDJ's at Robot Heart the day before on the Art-Tour with Skrillex. Luckily, I had a backup plan in place, and I remembered that I zip-tied one backup Flash-Drive to my headphones, and another one to my bike seat, just for this sort of scenario. Because “Sometimes… Burning Man Happens" The Dance-Floor was just getting filled around 1pm, (well the bar was at least anyways ;) And I played appropriately for my time slot. Direct from my soul to the dance-floor. Not too hard, not too soft, just warm, groovy rhythms, designed to attract people to the dance-floor. And it totally worked! The floor started filling up with happy smiling faces, the DJ Booth started to fill up with friends. "Playa Magic" was in full effect! Playing music on That Sound-System for DISTRIKT, was absolutely exhilarating .... and having the opportunity to warm things up for DJ Dan, The Scumfrog, Syd Gris and Peter Blick was truly an honor. #Gratitude Thank You DISTRIKT family! Looking forward to more dance-y, dusty good times.... See you on the Dust-Floor! https://soundcloud.com/mistaremix
