Destination Burning Man

16/06/2024

I'm honored (and slightly intimidated TBH) to be a small part of the next manifestation of Cascadia Festival at the hallowed Meltdown venue in the epic foothills of the North Cascades next weekend. I'll be DJ'ing a global-vibes set to activate the AMP STAGE Saturday morning and will pop up again Sat night with deeper, weirder grooves in the teahouse. Can't wait to reunite with summer NW festy tribe in the forest and to get down to sets by far-flung friends Lotus Drops Michael Manahan Alex Da Goopsteppa Rob Noble Jamie Schwabl Manoj Mathew Phidelity Willdabeast & others 💚🤍💙 Info & tickets at https://www.cascadianw.org/

This 2015 mix was a major milestone in our musical mixing philosophy, skillz & intentions - it initiated what was to become a series of 10 BASS MEDICINE dBMcast offerings, much-beloved around the planet, our offering of sonic tools for healing, connection and movement. After 68,000 streams, this mix was taken down by Soundcloud because of copyright complaints (Glass Animals, ahem) - but randomly popped back online and ready for your listening-rituals this week - get it while it's still legal lol:

2019!!

Burning Man is routinely described as transformative. At the personal level, a transformative experience. At the group level, a transformative event or culture. What does that really mean?

Our last dBMcast from DJ Playaduster was posted on Summer Soulstice, so it's cosmic symmetry that he's got a new musical mix for us here at the Fall Equinox -- "MYSTIC HAPPINESS : Equinoctial Vibrations" is fun, spunky, funky, offbeat and playful, full of good vibrations to help us navigate the transition between seasons. Featuring a fresh harvest of tracks from CloZee Random Rab The Polish Ambassador DJ Koze ATYYA Emancipator The Scumfrog Lapa Drumspyder El Búho -- & funky remixes of Aretha Franklin, Notorious BIG + Bill Withers -- it's the bass tonic you need for riding this wave of change. Enjoy the trip through sonic soundscapes and let us know how it lands with you!

The Man's last sunset....it's almost time. Where are YOU watching the playa stream from?

I was transfixed watching the live stream of these glowing, floating, dancing orbs that moved like a flock of birds and changed colors -- what is it?! Next level, so beautiful!

For as long as Burning Man's existed, it's been ruined. The ravers ruined it for the welders. The collective-minded hippies ruined it for the anarchist ravers. Tech bros displaced the bohemians.
