Burning Man 2023: Rockin' the LED Zeppelin

The rain hit the playa right before I was supposed to play https://soundcloud.com/opulent-chill / https://soundcloud.com/opulent-temple Friday afternoon, so upon recovering from the most unprecedented yet incredible burn ever I have found the motivation and inspiration to record the kind of set I would have played, with Burning Man still fresh on my mind!

Maikol's Opulent Chill Set at Burning Man 2023

played a handful of impromptu and playa-magical sets on axo at burning man this year, and every song on this mix brings up memories of dancing, smiling, and hugging with our axo fam, along with other friends old and new.
travel delays, extra a/v work getting the art car ready for prime time, and the crazy weather prevented me from doing much other than improvising sets full of party bangers, which seems to have resulted in some fun being had.   maybe this is a "had to be there" kinda set, maybe it's fun anywhere.  well, heeerrree we goooooo!

sets: 
maiden voyage sunday afternoon / dmv run @ porto party ;-) 
sunday night @ cactus of life
wednesday evening @ oneirotica (jermar wedding)

Northern Lights Mix - 08/31/23

I was super happy to play on Smile High again this year!  This time it was nighttime so I made a set with more BASS for dancing.. I forgot to record it so I made this rerecord of the tracklist!

Burning Man 2023 Tuesday - Smile High Art Car - 11pm set (rerecord)

It was the first night at Burning Man 23, we lighted up the Loophole and you could see the bikes coming to the light like flies. We could feel the fresh energy of the people. The massive Axoltol Artcar came and stopped in front of the installation. So we had the dancefloor running and pepole dancing to the beats of the 40.000W soundsystem. Surprise, the AXO DJ asked me if I wanted to play in the car, wow! I quickly grabbed my bike and went to the tent to get my laptop, and then I had to improvise a DJ set there for a couple of hours which was super exciting and fun. What an amazing start of the Burn! Massive thank you to Axolotl crew for building such an incredible piece of art and love on wheels.

Deif - Burning Man 23 - Axolotl Artcar at the Loophole Art Install - Sunday nite

A study of several cultures who bring their own flavors to the Blues with emphasis on rhythm loops and electronic synths to accent the drums, guitars and lyrics. 

Utilizing Call & Response, R&B, Disco, Techno, and African Blues lyrics you feel the similarities and the progression as the African Blues were traded back and forth across the Atlantic for centuries by musicians who were compelled by the original musicians (*who were kidnapped and brutalized in the name of monarchs).

A broad rage of percussion samples are represented and many of the tracks utilize multiple cultures' instruments in a musical mash up that honors the originators

You'll note as the mix moves into the second half I included two remixed tracks from Songhoy Blues of Mali which represents how West African musicians interpreted what they were hearing from Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and others in the Rock & Roll genre.

Enjoy while sitting, driving, chatting, or grooving.
