Hi Fam Jam!

What a delightful weekend we had closing out the near-end of summer 2024. This was my first Fam Jam and the event's 3rd anniversary. Located in the serene Santa Cruz mountains near the beautiful coast of California, USA, approximately 200 people gathered for a weekend of delicious BBQ (thanks Sharkbite!), music, and friendly faces, new and old! It was such a pleasure to be selected to perform and be present at this event. 

This is the live recording from my set on Saturday night from 10-11pm. Extra special thanks to Solkist, Denver Drake, Lowdecka & the rest of the Santa Cruz DJ Sessions crew & friends for coordinating such an intimate and lovely campout for us all to enjoy.

PS: Extra thanks to Maculate for performing his creative VJing during my set - the dancing pigeons were a huge hit throughout the weekend so I thought it only appropriate they don the artwork of my DJ mix (Photo credit to B. Miller Productions).

Thanks for listening & please enjoy!

InStereo Recordings Presents Vol 1 - Mixed by TAKIMBA

Such a blast opening for Beat Kitty! My favorite sets are ones that have a bit of a challenge or a twist, and this one was a great exercise at transitioning from bangin' house to deeper bass-y grooves. Life stuff is making it so I can't go out as much as I used to, so I really appreciated the opportunity to play for such a warm and fun crowd, and to reconnect with my burner fam. Can't wait till next time :)

Mulligan - 2025 demonstration

Hey all! This was my third year attending unSCruz and it's fast becoming one of my favorite campouts! This is the live recording from my home camp of Heavy Petting Zoo which was co-hosted by Entheos and Sound Garden. My time slot was Saturday from 6-7pm. I dug into the archives for this set but also tested out a few new originals. Please enjoy & thanks for listening!

Track list coming soon...

DJ DENISE - Live at unSCruz 2025: HPZ/Entheos/Sound Garden

This set has been in development for a long time. Originally arranged for 2024 campout season, it was shelved for nearly a year. More tracks were acquired and integrated in 2025, abd a bunch that were originally in didn't make the final cut. I've been taking some time off from DJing while learning to play guitar and pursue other creative outlets, but I felt the inspiration to dust off the decks and finally get this set finished. I'm pleased with how it turned out and I hope you enjoy it! If you do, drop a <3, repost and follow me. I'll try to not let an entire year go by before the next recording gets published! 

Straight from Oakland

Get ready to vibe with this set pulled from my performance at the Strategik Memorial Day event! It was great to flex some bangers late in the party and really connect with the dance floor. This mix is a reflection of where my musical taste stands right now, packed with energy, rhythm, and the sounds that move me. Whether you're reliving the moment or discovering the vibe for the first time, I hope this sets the tone for your summer. 🎶🔥
