Mayan Warrior is the result of a collaborative project that has united artists, craftsmen, photographers, designers, technologists, architects and musicians from Mexico City and Northern California. 

The project’s original intent was to present to the world the incredible ascent of contemporary Mexican electronic music while paying respect to the deep and ancient sources from which that visual and auditory culture had grown.


Both light and sound are curated by some of the world’s most prominent artists to transport participants to the very origins of the culture – and to a new understanding of contemporary electronic expression.

AND YES: Mayan Warrior is driven from Mexico City to the playa – and back – each year. It's a labor of love and we're glad so many people enjoy it.

BIO:
The Icelandic band Gus Gus originally spawned from a shortcut made by Siggi Kjartansson and Stefán Árni (a.k.a. Arni & Kinski) called “Pleasure”. Initially the band was acclaimed as an avant-garde collective of musicians, producers, filmmakers and performers. They mixed together different mediums to create a unique mixture of sound and vision. Their trademark style is combined with funky bass, streamlined synths and the intelligent use of technology and art. Árni & Kinski did the visual part and the musical side was driven by Birgir Þórarinsson (a.k.a. Veiran), Stephan Stephenssen (a.k.a President Bongo), Magnús Guðmundsson (a.k.a. Herb Legowitz). The live band was fronted by singers Daníel Ágúst, Hafdís Huld and Magnús Jónsson (a.k.a. Blake).

Gus Gus is an electronic soul band formed in 1995. A short break in a making of the shortcut made it possible for the first Gus Gus self-titled album to be born. In 1996 the band signed to 4AD Records that released their widely acclaimed second album “Polydistortion”. "This Is Normal" followed in 1999 and finally "Gus Gus vs T-World" appeared in 2000. During the 4AD years, Gus Gus started touring massively, stirring the music world with their powerful live-show. The touring life was stressful for the nine some and eventually called for changes within the line up. Six original members left and the three remaining producers (Veiran, President Bongo and Herb Legowitz) soon found hope in a new female singer, Earth aka Urður Hákonardóttir. The band has ever since focused on being a musical entity. 

In 2002 Gus Gus re-appeared with their 4th studio album "Attention" which includes their most successful dance floor hit “David”. On the album the band teamed up with the legendary producer Gareth Jones and Finnish multi-instrumentalist Jimi Tenor. The album demonstrates a sharply focused club-band full of creativity and even more energetic than ever. Daníel Ágúst

Galantis is the dance music project of Christian Karlsson (aka Bloodshy). RIAA gold-certified debut
album Pharmacy reached No. 1 on the Billboard Dance album chart on the strength of gold-certified
single “Peanut Butter Jelly” and 3x platinum certified smash “Runaway (U &amp; I)” – the latter of which
earned a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Dance Recording” – while 2017’s sophomore album The Aviary
(featuring platinum-certified single “No Money”) saw a top 10 debut in 23 countries. The third Galantis
album, 2020’s Church, featured the chart-topping gold-certified single “Faith” with country music icon
Dolly Parton featuring Mr. Probz, which saw a #1 debut on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Chart before
quickly reaching #1 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay Chart where it remained for 5 weeks. Meanwhile,
gold-certified collaborative single “Heartbreak Anthem” with David Guetta &amp; Little Mix proved a global
sensation, spending 10 weeks on the Billboard Global 200 chart and 13 consecutive weeks in the top 10
on the UK Official Chart. Latest album, Rx, is Karlsson’s most deeply personal creation to date – featuring
pop banger “Lighter” with Guetta and 5 Seconds of Summer which landed No.1 on the US Dance Radio
chart. Galantis has received over 7.3 billion cumulative worldwide streams and over 1.9 billion video
views to date.
Karlsson has been at the helm of Galantis since 2009 before officially debuting the project at 2014’s
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. His career has spanned across the musical genres of punk-
rock, hip-hop and pop – including work as one half of acclaimed production duo Bloodshy &amp; Avant and
one third of indie pop band Miike Snow. Karlsson’s songwriting/production credits have included the
likes of Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Katy Perry and extensive work with Britney Spears (including “Toxic”
which earned a GRAMMY for “Best Dance Recording” and her widely acclaimed 2007 album Blackout).
As Galantis, he has crafted remixes for the likes of Coldplay, Selena Gomez, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith &amp;
more. Declared “pop’s mastermind producer” by UPROXX, “eternally effervescent” by Billboard and
“one of the most influential and untamed voices in modern music” by GRAMMY.com, the Swedish-born
artist continues to evolve and push the boundaries of songwriting within the world of dance music and
beyond.

Born and raised in Tokyo, Alice Iguchi is a DJ currently based in Brooklyn, New York. After arriving in 2015, Alice found a sense of belonging in the underground house and techno music scene in New York City. Her foray with DJing began in 2017, and music has since become her international language of choice, expressed through an eclectic fusion of sounds.

Alice recounts that her first recognition of music as a child was listening to jazz in her father’s car in Japan. As she developed her own tastes in music as a teenager, she ventured into playing guitar for a Tokyo rock band. At age 19, Alice’s musical influences expanded to artists who experimented with electronic elements like Radiohead, Bjork, and Massive Attack. When she started exploring other countries at 20, Alice became exposed to the international world of house and techno music. Additionally, the sounds that made an impression on her then and continue to inspire her now include percussive instruments from street performers that she encountered throughout her travels.

As a DJ today, Alice has established a distinct sound rooted in her Japanese origins layered with the musical influences that she has amassed from the various stages of her life. The signature aspects of her music cleverly blend oriental tones, jazz-infused grooves, and organic percussion, at times with intentionally placed vocal hooks. Alice has an incredible ability to take her audience on a mesmerizing curated journey, be it with vibrant house, driving melodic techno, or deep sultry tunes suited for daytime, nighttime, or afterhours.

In 2018, Alice established a residency at Do Not Sit On The Furniture while living in Miami and also performed at numerous events during Art Basel Miami and Miami Music Week. Upon moving back to Brooklyn in 2019, she has regularly been invited to play at New York City’s iconic clubs like the Brooklyn Mirage, House of Yes, and Elsewhere. Alice has performed at renowned global venues such as the main stage of the Brooklyn Mirage in New York City, Flash in DC, Womb in Tokyo, and the infamous Sisyphos in Berlin. She has shared the stage with Bob Moses, Guy Gerber, DJ Tennis, Maceo Plex, Joris Voorn, Rodriguez Jr., Einmusik, Blondish, Matthias Meyer, and Francesca Lombardo, among other notable artists. During 2023, Alice toured through Asia and made appearances in certain European cities, broadening the reach of her original sound and continuing to stir up the underground electronic music scene around the world.
