Hello fellow raving community. In the wake of the Covid pandemic I started this thing called “Live From The Utopian Void” which is basically a live DJ set that also works as a showcase of the sound I’d like to play at the moment. I dropped one mix in early 2022, one in 2023 and well… needless to say I’m a sucker for good trilogies, so here’s a third one, just in time for the start of spring.

I usually have a starting track and see where it takes me from there on. In this case it’s the funky Foals rework of a Paramore track which is followed by a short trip to the 80s, some darker tunes by Chinaski and Kalipo before heading into sweet house music territory with much loved producers like Octo Octa, Running Hot and Confidence Man. Well, and towards the end I can’t shake off some fast trance moments by I.JORDAN and Swart before things will calm down again a bit more once we hit that 2h mark.

Having said that … of course I would love to play more. I don’t have a booking agency (yet) and please don’t judge me by my transitions or the genre-hopping. It’s part of who I am, I guess. I love to challenge myself and the audience. Whether it’s acid house, Balearic disco or funky soul - Burnout Sumner is right there for your dancefloor desires. Just drop me a message. Enjoy the mix. You know where to find the mix.

Live From The Utopian Void III (Spring Mix 2024)

This (2.15h from 3h) set was recorded at Saturday 7:00 AM in the amazing vibing cozy Wintergarten, filled with good vibes and a lot of energy. It features a mix of favorite tracks from some of my favorite artists, alongside a few local talents that I’ve been vibing to lately. Hope it takes you on a journey, whether you're starting your day or winding down.

Until very soon, my dear Sissy ❤️

Ich weiß gar nicht, ob ihrs schon wusstet, aber Techno am Mittag ist quasi das neue Brunch. Nur ohne Croissants - dafür mit ordentlich Bums.
Daher: Willkommen zur Mittagsmesse: 120 Minuten feierliches „Amen“ im 4/4-Takt.
Für alle, die ihren Kater wegbouncen wollen oder einfach glauben, dass Bier schon Frühstück sein kann.
