Julie, Julie, Julie, what do we say about Julie??! How can we put into words the love we have for this seasoned house music vet, and convey the honor that it is to have her experience in our little corner at the Dusty Booty Ranch?
We’ve crushed on Julie in the Seattle house music scene for many years, and were stoked when she finally decided to join us on playa in 2017. Julie saddled up to the DBR with huge enthusiasm. Eager to explore, and seemingly mere minutes after her first arrival on playa, she rode off on an elevated sunset playa adventure with little more than our address and her cell phone. She and her phone were promptly lost. After hours of thinking “Oh, this street looks familiar, I must be going in the right direction” In BRC, LOL!!!) Julie heard the sweet familiar sounds of Wesley Holmes, which we were keeping on for her like an auditory light, helping her find her way back home.

We hope you enjoy this set, a flash back to our Pre-Playa Party in July!

This was the first ever sunrise set at DISTRIKT and our first visit to DISTRIKT.
Together with everybody who was present, we had a musical flight that took off in pitch black darkness and soared into the rising orange sun. It was a unique experience and certainly one we’ll never forget. Thank you for dancing and sharing this moment together!

Kruder & Dorfmeister - DISTRIKT - Burning Man 2023

Something a little different for ya.  Me at my moodiest.  In more recent years I apply tags to my tracks of different vibes so that I can organize my massive music collection better.  One of the biggest categories is 'Moody.'  

Of course a lot of people going out on Friday and Saturday night to my gigs are out to celebrate, so this category doesn't get as much play live as more funky upbeat rhythms.  As such it's somewhat underrepresented on my Soundcloud.

Well not anymore :). I'm dedicated to releasing more sets this year and I see this one as the start of a series.  Welcome to Ben Annand Moody AF :). 

The opener of this series is an opening set I played on a Sunday night from 9-11pm. It's actually just the first hour, 9-10.  It's ok to be moody when people are settling in :). It was also November just after the time change and loss of light... the beginning of the moody season in Eugene :)

An opening set is always interesting musically (or should be) because you get to start from scratch, and set the tone for the whole night.  So it's always a set that should be played with intention.

In this particular case, I was in a sensitive space because I had taken some really nasty criticism from the organizer of an event recently before.  I won't go into detail but it was very tactlessly and cruelly delivered.  So of course that affected my headspace both in terms of insecurity, and in terms of wanting to deliver a great set since I didn't entirely disagree with the criticism so much as I was hurt by the tone from a supposed friend.

So why am I telling you this?  Because this set is moody as fuck!  It opens with a lush vocal track that really spoke to me when my marriage suddenly went up into smoke. I find this track really intense so I haven't played it much but at home.   

The mix stays deep and moody, gradually building energy then wavering then building.  It's super trippy, a little dark/melancholy for me, but still house and totally danceable of course :)

So with all that said, I hope you enjoy this one and I will keep em coming!

Ben Annand Moody AF Vol 1 (Live at the Big Dirty in Eugene at Secret Sauce)

The weather was hot and humid, the line of love burners was long and hangry,  the deli sandwiches were fresh and tasty, and those funky beats… they were d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s

Started out with funky, disco vibes then get deeper, groovier, housier, & vibe-ier!

Enjoy this mix recorded live at Saturday's afternoon Deli service at Camp NYC Deli during Love Burn 2024!

My most varied and ambitious set to date!  

Hope you enjoy AnnandEdance - I put a lot of thought, time and energy into this interpretation of Ecstatic Dance.

From 0 bpm to 67 winding up to 126 and then back to stillness

Ambient - Downtempo - House - Techno - Broken Beat  - Progressive - House - Ambient

It's an extended journey just over 3 hours so longer then normal Ecstatic Dance formet.  And more 4/4 than most Edance but there is broken house and downtempo and evena Drum and Bass track in the mix

Mahalo to Simon Smith, Paul Sykes, and Garden Temple for the opportunity!

Our sunrise outting at Burning Man is one of my favorite happenings each year. It's a culmination of our art car project, the Dirty Goat Roadhouse, DJing, and celebrating a new day with loved ones. It's pretty special. 
This mix is a selection of tracks that I don't play out very often. These are not bangers or heavy hitters, but a collection of minimal/deep/tech/melodic house music spanning over 15 years. This sunrise was right before the big storms, the sky was spectacular. Please enjoy the mello vibes.

I was feel energized and inspired after returning from a month long trip only to get sick with Covid from the plane flight. Sick, bored, stir crazy but still feeling inspired (at times), I managed to throw together this mix with all my free time stuck in the house on isolation. Went digging for a bunch of my spacey/dark slower tracks with a nice chug to them. Loungey space funk is a nice description. Funktronica is another (apparently that's an actual music genre). This mix is great for kicking back, maybe grabbing a drink or having a smoke, and lounging out for the next hour. Enjoy!

As a dj, Zeebo's has put in some serious work to develop his sound and skills over the past few years, his debut set at Flammable is a lovely reflection of his range and abilities to keep butts on the dance floor.

I had the honor of playing a poolside set for Camp Silver Spur (near Yosemite) this past Fourth of July during their Glitter Ranch campout.

Everyone was lovely, but I felt the energy change at some point and tried to match the music accordingly. A gentleman floating in the pool shared his experience of being in the water when the bass changed (after my set), which was nice 😅

Thank you so much to @seanmajors for inviting me to play! 🙏❤️

On this week's RIPEcast our close friend and PInk Mammoth resident DJ Jonathan Will with a live set poolside from Birds of a Feather 2024. 

From Jonathan, "This mix comes from closing out the pool party at the famed Birds of A Feather event on Saturday. 

There was so many things I liked about this party, different crews that don’t always get to play or be together because they do separate events, friends I hadn’t seen in years, bird puns (upon puns) for days, and great peeps. 

Special thanks to all the organizers that put it on and was honored to be amongst a killer set of djs with eclectic sounds. It was one for the bird books. Hope you enjoy."

Reflect is excited to announce Black Velveteen as our the newest member of our crew!

Before she became Black Velveteen,
Chris Offutt was born and raised on the South Side of Chicago. Her parents introduced her to a wide range of music; Motown to Mozart and everything in between. Some frequently featured artists in young Chris’s house were Aretha Franklin, Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Wonder and James Taylor.  Current influences include Chris Fortier, Amonita, Wilma, Nora En Pure, Tayllor, Wilson Kentura, and Matt Sawyer to name a few.

From a very young age she dreamed of hosting her own radio show. In 2011 that dream became  when she had her own show “ Progressions in House” on FNOOB based out of London. 
Chris enjoyed DJing around the San Francisco Bay Area from 2012-2019  . In 2012 she became the resident DJ and musical director at Aloft Hotel SFO. In 2013 Djing in the Pride Parade on the W Hotel float. In 2015 she was asked to perform on the Tantra Stage for Pride in San Francisco.  She was in rotation at The End Up and did guest spots and Monarch, The Great Northern and Wish. In 2016 Chris was asked to join AirPusher Collective.  She has also done guest  mixes for FriskyRadio, ProtonRadio and Elastic Beatz, Innerflight, Space Medicine and more.  Black Velveteen's style and sound is indescribable as she reaches for sounds and music that turn her listeners on to a new experience.
