September 21, 2023 Wayward at F8... My club debut!

What an experience... Kicking off the lineup, surrounded by the smiling faces of close friends, watching the room fill up with dancing bodies, nervously playing a mix I'd been working on for a couple months... And of course, weathering the inevitable mistakes and technical mishaps!

That recording didn't turn out the way I wanted, so this is a bar-for-bar re-recording of that mix, without the technical mishaps, on new pristine gear that hasn't had ~50 sticky cocktails spilled directly on it since 2016. 😁

Track list:
Wongo & She Koro - Caught Up (Needs No Sleep Extended Remix)
Jaxel - Steps (Far&High Remix)
Vakabular - Over My Life
Multi Tul - Whodafuq
Way Out West - Intensify Part 01

Live at Salty Jacks Baewatch Party, Burning Man 2025

On Tuesday, having persevered through the massive dust storm 2 following days of mild showers, and having rebuilt our bar twice already, Salty Jacks had the temerity to open for service!
I got on the decks around 4 and spun for a while, and just as I decided everyone had had enough... ⛈️⛈️⛈️
SIGH.
Here's the mix that brought the wet, with some dirty, sassy house and plenty of throwbacks to bring those dive bar vibes. Enjoy!
