Eskmo's MiniMix for Radio4 Graz
15/July/11 Filed in: Guest
DJ

A new, lovely, spacey, superchill mix from the uber-talented DJ Eskmo. He writes:
“The first European show of my EU tour this June was in Graz Austria (Pics below) for the Springfestival. I played alongside Dorian Concept, Martyn and Samiyam on Thursday and ended up staying an extra day on Friday. That extra night the good people over at FM4 asked me to come in and do a short interview and dj set. It seemed like most of the other djs coming into the studio were playing more danc-y type sets. So, given the gentle mist of rain outside, the proximity to rolling hills and a massive river, I figured I would go a more gentle route. (I admit this mix is more of something my alter ego “Welder” would put out, but the world is a weird place, you never know what can happen.) Here is the simple gentle set. Enjoy.”

Evolutionista's Nightlife Set 1

DJ

My friend Torsten, who originally convinced me to go to Burning Man in 2004, lives in San Francisco and always has the inside track on good DJ music. He recently turned me on to this 2-part live set from a Bay Area DJ named Evolutionista. Don’t know much about him but this brief bio, from his website:
“Evolutionista is the design and music moniker of independent Oakland artist Griffin Crafts. As Evolutionista, Crafts delves into downtempo blending ambient curiosities with beat-centric sensibilities. Fusing a command of technology with passionate devotion to art, Evolutionista hopes to invite and ensure healthy evolution for all beings.”
I love these spacey sounds and listen to this mix often when I’m looking for soothing, inspiring sounds. Enjoy.

biNGH: New Meat
19/May/11 Filed in: Guest
DJ

Interplanetary trajectories make for systematically erratic positions and opportunities. Scattered like bits of fluff in a space dust storm, the wonders of this modality are infinite and varied. Letting go of the normal needs for position and velocity awareness leads to an almost intoxicating stupor of flavors, textures and intergalactic interactions. Such yang embodying trips, heady, rising, unsettled, bursting, glowing hot and bright, are inspired and short lived by their very nature.
In time, the fire burns low, the wind dies down, and the life returns to the earth. Internal transmissions take over the condintuitive channels of the extroversionary energies and it is time for internal reflection and grounded embodiment. Returning from far flung oRbiTal paths, tightening the circuits and letting the exploratory energy continue, with internal probes and present tense specialization, shifting from cosmic to embodied, from yang to yin, from far flung to grounded, from summer to the darker times... Out of the dying fires of extroversion, a new body is constantly discovered, New Meat is born.
This mix is a celebration and an exploration into the transition that comes over all of us, the process that is practiced, one direction or another, with sinusoidal regularity and chaotic randomness with every shift in life, with every dawning day and setting sun, with every change in the season. This is a celebration of the infinitely vast, endlessly varied, readily accessible temple that we are.
The work of the following artists is entwined with the verbage of Richard Freeman. Listen and enjoy. Taste some New Meat...click here for more...
Bass Cadet (It's a Family Affair)
As the Burnal Equinox
passes us by, we slip and slide our way down the slope towards
another trip to Black Rock City. Burning Man 2011 begins to
infiltrate my daily thoughts as I consider what Rites of Passage
will rise up to meet me and my merry band of Get Foundlings. Here's
a heavy-duty blend of bass music -- dubstep, whomp, glitch-hop,
lazer -- to wake us out of our winter slumber and slap us silly in
to the spring. This is not your mama's bass -- get ready to be
aurally spanked! This is the time of year for cleansing and new
growth, and this mix is designed to knock the moss off of your bass
chakras as we stumble towards the playa, alone and together.
Deep end contributions from Vibesquad, Opiuo, Bassnectar, Datsik, Nanda, Rusko, Thriftworks, Mochipet, Caligula, HULK, ill gates, An-ten-ae, Samples and MartyParty. Those getting the remix treatment include Sly and the Family Stone, Jamiroquai, Jefferson Airplane (?!), Nas & Damian Marley, Big Boi, Ellie Goulding and Kid Cudi.

Chiron Transmission 1 : Golgotha
16/March/11 Filed in: DJ
Playaduster
Greetings from the
friendly Burners here at Destination Burning Man, and welcome to
the latest mix from DJ Playaduster: "Chiron Transmissions 1 :
Golgotha." Much of this podcast is shrouded in mystery and codes,
but it appears to be a missive sent from the outer fringes of our
solar system, a musical message that originates from the
proto-comet Chiron.
Discovered in 1977 in its eccentric orbit between Saturn and Uranus, Chiron is known in some circles as the "Rainbow Bridge" or "Wounded Healer," a humble, benevolent guide that can assist humans by keeping us moving forward on our proper spiritual paths. In early February 2011, Chiron entered the watery realm of Pisces, activating the pure power of potential, the manifestation of the unconscious and transformative healing through (re)union with the divine.
The frequencies found in this podcast are believed to have originated from Chiron, with DJ Playaduster serving as a musical midwife in order that they be perceived by the human ear and widely disseminated through our dBM channels.
Contributing artists include Bill Laswell, Rena Jones, Phaelah, Tipper, Heyoka, James Blake, Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, DJ/rupture, Kim Hiorthoy, Ezekiel Honig, Yo-Yo Ma, Shackleton, PantyRaid and Thriftworks, with vocal musings from Joni Mitchell, Timothy Leary, Hekter McElliott, Pema Chodron and the Tangerines.

David Starfire's Black Rock Beatz
22/February/11 Filed in: Guest
DJ

We recently found this mix from David Starfire, a very talented DJ from California that we’ve seen perform live at Burning Man / the Hookahdome several times over the past years. We’ll let him explain the scenario:
There has been some confusion if I’m going to Burning Man or not and I’ve decided to take this year off… But, since I’m not going to BM this year I though it would be fun to make a new mix and give it away to people to play at Burning Man! So feel free to give this mix to others, play it on art cars and even make CD’s and give to friends if you like! The mix features some of my favorite artists as well as some of my tracks and remixes, including a new unreleased dubstep track and a song I co-wrote and produced with iCatching.

Here's a video I put
together, from many sources, telling a little bit of the Camp Get
Found story at Burning Man 2010: Metropolis. This chapter begins
with an overview of the many twisty roads that lead to Black Rock
City before jumping in to camp build, playa explorations, nights of
heavy bass and daytime flirty frolickings. This piece
presents my
perspective
on how things went down and features images, video and music from
