The Scumfrog - Robot Heart Burning Man 2013

In anticipation of the Scumfrog's 'Collection 2021', released at the end of October, here is the recording of his return to DJing. Recorded in front of a packed dance floor in NYC on September 16th. 

After lockdowns, quarantines, isolations and live streams, The Scumfrog returned to the decks in front of a real crowd for an extended set at the venue where he started MBTS 6 years earlier. For once, he managed to press 'record' on his recorder before he started. Enjoy more than 3 hours of dancing to The Scumfrog's interpretation of post-pandemic boogie.

Extended set in NYC. September 16th 2021

Sometimes you're in a timeless mood, when you just want a great chuggy underground groove that doesn't end. This mix is for such a mood. No big drops, no songs, no epic synths...just the rhythm and some rhythmic sprinkles. Cannot wait to play a set like this soon for you in my own Brooklyn. You know... in a small dark room with a four point sound system.

Timeless groove for a small dark room with a four point sound system

It has been quite some time since the last time we gathered for a night of MBTS. I wanted to take some time after the pandemic to be quiet and see how the dance music scene would evolve, and what sounds would come out of the standstill that was Covid. Now that I have a good sense of where I want to be sonically, and what kind of energy I want to spread onto dance floors, I am ready to restart MBTS in 2023. Stay tuned for more info, and enjoy this preview of what's to come.

Much love, 
The Scumfrog

M.B.T.S. (Most Below The Surface) 2023

Sunrise is my favorite way to describe the magic of Burning Man.

There are 365 sunrises each year, and most of us consider it a privilege to sleep through them. But during one week at Burning Man the attendance of sunrise is a must. In the desert, as a collective, we make things that are otherwise ordinary occurrences into sacred spectacles. We make costumes for the sunrise, we compose music for it, and we go through death-defying stunts to take incredible pictures of it. And so it goes with many things at Burning Man; things that we take for granted in the real world are treated differently on the playa. It is not just the rising of the sun that we elevate to mythical proportions, but human traits like kindness, patience, uncertainty and flexibility are also celebrated, tested and recharged in Black Rock City.

Through audio and video captures, these extraordinary treatments of ordinary things stand a chance to be implemented in the outside world, not just for those who were there, but also to people who never traveled to Burning Man, and who - through these captures - are reminded that certain basic things in life can hold more value if we so choose. With every unusually nice thing that someone did or said to us at Burning Man, with every unprovoked smile we received from strangers in its dust storms, we will be charged and challenged to pay that spirit forward the other 51 weeks of the year.  And every morning, the sun will faithfully show its face to remind us of this opportunity.  

So, the next time we need to set our alarm clocks because real life responsibilities demand us to be awake before dawn, let’s choose to be grateful for witnessing the sun peek over the horizon or through our concrete jungles, while most other people are sleeping through it, and let’s remember that we are ambassadors of that magical place that celebrates the beauty in ordinary things. 

Today is a good day to be awake!

The Scumfrog - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2014

This was my first trip to the Joshua Tree Music Festival.  It definitely lived up to and exceeded any expectations I may have had.  The beautiful community of music enthusiasts it attracted was second to none.  They came with me wherever I went musically.  There's nothing like being physically present, but I'm trusting some of the magic from that beautiful evening under stars will translate via this recording into something that will leave your soul smiling. Enjoy!

My two hour live mix from atop Charlie the Unicorn, during Burning Man 2015.

From darkness to sunrise, I had the honor to play this set on top of "Charlie the Unicorn" (the legendary art car) surrounded by close and new friends @ Burning man 2015.

DEEP PLAYA Sunrise set on Charlie the UNICORN

Here's the set I did at the closing day of Afrikaburn 2017 on Sunday morning. The week was already perfect but I couldn't finish it in a better way than sharing this moment with all the ones in front of me. What an incredible experience... I hope it's gonna remind some of the people present this magical moment. And for the others that you can imagine the journey it was at the end of this dusty week drinking bubbles during the morning. Thanks for all the smiles and lovely souls I met before, during and after this set :D

The Scumfrog - Tutu Techno @ Fire Nightclub, London 11/16/19

Sunrise at Burning Man
It is high on the list of the things I could write a book about.

The relentless wrench that is 2020 forced us to consider and reconsider almost every aspect of our lives and routines, including Burning Man. In the quest of finding solutions for all this disruption, we all came up with some pretty cool stuff so far, and the creative forces that take the spectacle of Black Rock City to increasingly bigger heights each year went into overdrive to create and a virtual version of our beloved dust bowl. 

Comparing the virtual Burning Man to its IRL counterpart is as foolish as comparing ‘2019 Burning Man’ to the 1998 edition. Each year is different, and 2020 forced us to adapt to a new kind of different. Playing a sunrise set on the real playa is incomparable to doing one in VR, where only one out of the 24 global time-zones experiences the actual sunrise while the music unfolds; where there are no collective goosebumps, shivers and hugs, and where you can probably not feel the bass like when you’re standing in front of a battalion of dusty sub-woofers. 

However, there were elements of yesterday’s sunrise that made it uniquely special for me. The most important element was the inspiration to make a long three-hour Deep House journey again, which I had not done in months. Quarantine had made me explore different genres and moods, dismissing Deep House as something pointless that should only be played in the presence of collective energy. But even though a streaming event and a VR event are ‘cheating’ when it comes to collective energy, this one still had that feeling that the moment is being experienced by many people at once. 

I very much enjoyed the act of imagining the full extent of collective energy, even though my screen only revealed the implication of this energy. I am very proud of this musical journey and I published it for re-listening. I hope you enjoy it too, and you too can close your eyes when listening, and imagine the moment when we are all standing in front of those bass-bins again, and we can scream, shout, gaze, and hug. The power of music is an incredible force, and I am honored to be a link in its chain.
