What an amazing party Off the Grid Campout 2025 was! I think my Sunday evening set there was my best flow of the year <3 My set started a bit weird as I lost a lot of the crowd right away, without a style change or much reason. Sometimes people see a DJ changeover as a good break time so I did…

This is my personal favorite set I played at Burning Man 2024 due to it's uniqueness and the vibes of the camp. It wasn't a huge crowd but it was contained nicely and people were down for the musical journey with me :). Musically it's varied and pretty hard to put into a genre but leans techno…

This set from 04-14-24 really exemplifies my deep house curation and mixing style.

Like many friends, I'm missing Matthew Parkey from the physical world today. The soul of the desert, Matthew was always friendly and inclusive. Always. At a time when I felt I was told to be playing this way or that in the desert, he allowed me to be free. At a time when I was not feeling…
