Musik Gewinnt Freunde Promo Mix - Flux FM Club Sandwich

Being invited to play on the bus after hearing everyone rave about it was certainly one of the most exciting news of the year.

Stepping up behind the decks following the Martinez Brothers was not such an obvious and easy task considering the differences in our respective “styles”. Nonetheless, all your smiles and dance moves whilst I was performing proved the RH crew had made that call for a particular reason.

Following such a positive experience playing on the bus, in the city, I can only imagine what it would be like in the middle of the desert.

Thanks to all of you for bringing such joy to my heart, it sure was a night I will not forget!

Until next time . . . Love and light xx

YokoO - Robot Heart - Halloween NYC 2014

Minirig portable speakers the only soundsystem you will ever need!!
www.minirigs.co.uk  

A big thank you to YokoO for his Minirig podcast!

YokoO is no stranger to house music in all its deepest forms. A studio head in the true sense of the word, he spends much of his time pondering basslines and warm synth riffs that heat up dancefloors the world over. With releases on highly regarded labels such as Musik Gewinnt Freunde, Moodmusic, Plastic City and Kina Music, YokoO has marked out a spot for himself in the global house music scene with talent being sought after from every corner of the world.
His musical intuition drives his production and his full groove based approach to seductive house music turns heads of many a label boss from Kollektiv Turmstrasse, Matthew Dekay and Lee Burridge no less. As well racking up plays from industry reference artists, YokoO’s music has proven time and time again it can reach the record bags of the DJing elite in every continent.

As a DJ, YokoO embraces the dancefloor with a dynamic and honest approach sparking it up with forward thinking music every time. When you see him play, you can see a genuine love for what he is doing and that naturally feeds back to his audience, fuelling energy and the fever of the dancefloor. The warm melodies work with the heavy basslines to create a unique sound that is deep but still pumping enough to get a party started . . . and going way passed sunrise.

With a prolific and impressive discography, YokoO has made his mark on noteworthy labels to date with both original releases and a back catalogue of strong remixes. His latest batch of unreleased productions is an intense gathering of melodies, working with a defined sense of groove and depth designed for the dancefloor and beyond.

Get Physical Radio #198 mixed by YokoO [Live @ S.A.S.H. - Sydney, AUS - 2014-02]

Some words from XLR8R:
"[...] And then there's this podcast. It's one of the most scrumptious, gorgeous sets that XLR8R has run in recent months—which, consider we've hosted mixes from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Audiofly, Dance Spirit, Fort Romeau and Virginia lately, is saying quite a bit. As YokoO explains in the video, the session's emotions run the gamut from joy to sadness, love and loneliness and back again, its soothing passages punctuated with moments of pure drama. In short, it's a musically rich hour of listening pleasure. Our suggestion: Grab a glass of wine (or whatever) and settle in for a while."

01 Kadebostan "Sofia On Stage"

"Starting a set on the Robot Heart bus, in motion, in the middle of the desert, was certainly the least expected and most unparalleled moment I have experienced as a DJ. Watching the burners follow us on their lit up bikes, dust swirling all around, with the majestic Black Rock City as a backdrop completely blew me away.

I still get goosebumps all over, when thinking about it.

There truly is no place like Burning Man, a HOME for people who breathe LOVE.

I hope the mix will somehow convey the feel of my magical  & ever inspiring experience out there.

Thank you Robot Heart. Thank You, ALL. I shall be back next year, the universe willing; may you be there too! <3"

All Day I Dream Podcast 004: YokoO

A year later, the saga continues with another podcast bleeding emotions, for You and your listening pleasure. 
Despite being a relatively short mix, the track selection required a lot of thinking, just like the previous piece I delivered to XLR8R. This one is yet again inspired by the roller coaster of emotions I went through last year, as well as my worldwide travels, and the sadness I feel whilst facing the countless political issues and terrorist attacks that take place all around the globe. 

Enough said . . . May the music speak for itself and relate my feelings just like the last episode did.
All Day I Dream Of Peace.

Only Love.

YokoO - Mayan Warrior - Wednesday Sunrise - Burning Man 2016

Dear community, 

What is going wrong with humanity in this world? We are shocked about the happenings in Aleppo, so broken-hearted for people in Syria and we can’t stand this awful situation of helplessness. 

Together with YokoO, who joins us for this Christmas podcast, we therefore decided to raise money for urgently required medical aid supplies for people in and around Aleppo.

Berlin based DJ and producer YokoO is an incredible person and artist and we are honoured to have him on board for such an important campaign! HIs releases and collaborations on noteworthy labels such as All Day I Dream, Musik Gewinnt Freunde or Kindisch definitely put him in the first league of the global house scene.

Use the following link to make a donation to Volunteers for Humanity, a Swiss charity organization, which organizes the purchase and transport of the supplies to Syria. Their commitment for people in need is unparalleled. Based on voluntary service they support refugees locally and no cent is lost in administration.

It’s time to act, dear community! People in Syria have no choice – we do! Please share this campaign and donate! Every single donations counts.
In the name of all participants of this campaign we would like to thank you for help

Yours hopefully, 
The bartenders

YokoO - DHA Mix #267

Where to start . . . ?! This second Burning Man experience was indescribable. 
Filled with serendipitous moments, my week was as magical as it could have been.

Robot Heart was the last of the seven shows I played and certainly one I was looking forward to the most. Why? Because I was given the opportunity to play an extended set. Pretty damn special isn't it?!

It's 7.30AM, Saturday after man burn, I wake up all dusty in my yurt after playing through a mad storm at White Ocean from 3 to 5AM hoping for the weather to have settled a little. I walk outside and guess what . . . 
it is a complete white out!!! 

Putting all the good will I have out there, I decide to jump on my bicycle and ride out to the deep playa to find the bus. The wind is very strong and the visibility so low that I literally get thrown off it. I desperately start walking, like a blind man, following whatever sound I can hear. Slowly losing hope, I eventually run into a bunch of white walkers on the same mission. I realise time is running low as I have lost all sense of direction. My skepticism increases, yet my ears magically take me to the Heart just before the start of my agreed set time - 8.30AM. Monolink is performing live in front of a bunch of troopers. I get informed that performances have slightly been delayed due to weather conditions. The sky gets darker by the minute. The crew warns me that rain had been forecasted and that music would have to be turned off for safety reasons in case of another storm. I then realise that my set could just get canceled. Sad face. I pray the weather gods for mercy.
As I get on, the sky magically clears. No more wind, barely any clouds, no more dust. My nightmare turns into a dream and my journey on the decks begins.

I hope you’ll appreciate and enjoy the spontaneity of this set.

Love, and Love only.

Art Project:
Ursa Major
Reaching to grab what is within her grasp is Ursa Major, a 14 foot tall, grizzly bear sow. She may simply be reaching for berries but perceivably she is reaching higher: to the northern sky and the constellation that is her name, Ursa Major. In navigation, the constellation is useful in pointing the way to the North Star.  Ursa Major’s pose is inspiring, she brings the gaze and hopes of the participant skyward. She also demonstrates respect for the bears and nature, her pose is not like a taxidermy bear. She is in her natural state and unthreatening.  With a durable, unique material that was used on their previous Burning Man project (Penny the Goose), Ursa Major’s fur will be made of US and Canadian pennies. The pattern and feel will be like fur.

LOST DIMENSION Vol 1

This mix series is going to touch on the sounds that I feel heighten the emotion of getting lost, exploring other spaces mentally and conquering the dark and challenging places of our own minds. 

Exploring emotionally heavy sounds has always been my most fascinating and rewarding time with music. From the influence Pink Floyd had on me, to the scores in my favorite movies, to the always expanding techno and ethereal sounds I have come to love. Sets feeling like a journey is the single most important aspect when I look at my own work. Musical journeys can allow someone to let go, to reassess, to expand and to ultimately grow as an individual. By no means is this the sole focus of music, because the amount of happiness and love that arises from purely dancing will always unite us.  With that being said, the experience of a truly moving, heavy musical journey has happened for me on several occasions, and if I can create a space for this to happen to others I will always feel a sense of love in whatever I am working on. 
When we can exist in our own headspace during one of these experiences, without conversation or judgment, even if only for a few moments, amazing things can happen. So my intention with this project is to create mixes that open doors to emotion, thought, self discovery and rising from the darkest areas within ourselves. There is much to be learned in the darkness; facing it head on and coming out on the other side full of light is true fulfillment. I arranged these with intention to travel from mystical curiosity, into shadowed uncertainty, emotional struggle, breaking through, self discovery and ultimately a feeling of triumph and awareness.  Thjs process is how I view our challenges in life, and I hope my musical interpretation has a similar influence.  Enjoy the exploration...
