Celebrating 50 yrs in the most kickass way...surrounded by friends & family who mean everything to me. This was a movement on so many levels...connections revisited and music that evokes emotion.  I was born in the city of Oakland and 50 yrs later, I wanted to throw down in the city of Oakland.  Thank you to all the volunteers and the owners/management team of the Tow Yard for making this event possible.  This was a 12 hr DJ marathon stacked with my favorite artists representing STiRTy like no other.  This set is a perfect reflection of who I am as I take you on a fun journey through some of my genre faves featuring tech house, minimal,  breaks, and indie pop mashups.

Speak Softly But - Dao & Pwny

Sometimes everything comes together in one perfect moment: the vibe is right, the crowd is lit, and you're ready for anything. This mix is a tribute to one of those moments for me. 
I was fortunate enough to attend unSCruz this year (Santa Cruz's official regional burn) and even moreso to have been invited to spin at multiple events. My favorite, though, was my set at @ali-bar-bar on Friday night of the event. They had been trying to get me to come play for years, and the stars finally aligned for me to make it happen. I arrived to a packed and jumping dancefloor under the spell of the talented Miss (soon to be Mrs.!) @hijinxtrax, and needed to keep the vibe high and tight. I *LOVE* getting to play all-out, no-holds-barred energetic tracks for the pure dopamine surge it gives me, but there's a time and a place for those, and that's not always the case. Thankfully, Ali Bar-Bar has a fun "no headliners!" policy that encourages DJs to go hard anytime. I took the bait.

What happened next was peak-moment magic for me. Sadly, I didn't record the set, but I had a tracklist, and this is a studio do-over for your own personal get-down sessions. As Stefan would say with a /mostly/ straight face, "This high-energy mix has EVERYything. Funky tech house, grimy bass house, remixes, bootlegs, familiar hooks, and even a Linkin Park track that slaps (thanks to a kickass re-rub by Malaa)." 

I'm dedicating this track to new friends Marco and Stephanie, the sweetest new newlyweds that welcomed me with open arms into their amazing bar and DJ booth. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did (re)playing it!

As always, I couldn't do what I do without the amazing efforts of so many talented producers from literally all over the world. Shout out to you all and love from my little corner of the planet here on the Big Island!

FNF has meant so much to me since the first time I attended in 2001. It was the location where much of the early Brass Tax crew came to really know and love each other. Its former location, Walter and Jane Camp's land in Willets, inspired me to own my own land someday. 

When I was given the honor to play the closing set on Sunday morning, I knew I had to make it special with tracks that are as close to my heart as this campout. North Cack is an ode to my home state of NC. Drop the Hate was a track that OG BTx DJ Loosebeats would use to close many of our early 420 renegades. Dog Days was a song that got me through a particularly hard patch of summer last year, and anyone who knows me well knows how much Willie means to my family and how much Rainbow Connection means to Brass Tax. 

Many thanks to the FNF crew and all the work you do to make this campout an enduring bright light every year, and to the Music Committee for gifting me my dream slot and allowing me to bring this one home in 2023. And thanks to Brad Katz and his crew, who make that main stage bass thump like nobody else can.
