Beautiful Set with so many different colors! Merci 🙏

David Juno Sets

Nie Myer - Rainbow Road

I was invited to play at a friend’s camp whom I met 7 years ago in a club in London, before either of us found our passion in electronic music. The set is is called unhinged because there are tracks from various genres representing that freeing feeling stemming from burning man

Detroit Spirit

Darles Flow - Detroit Spirit [M-Sol DEEP]

Gratitude. Belonging. Collaboration. Flow state. Scintillating crowd energy. Much mud. Moist air. Fire and Water. Masculine and Feminine.

These are a few words that come to mind when I think back to my Sunday Mass set at Swing Fling, from 2-4pm on the last day of Kiwiburn 2023.

Many thanks to all the pious and devout dancers who brought their palpable energy to a very special rendition of the Sunday Mass, as well as all the nuns at Swing Fling serving pancakes, mimosas and/or spanks to those who confessed their transgressions on (or off) the paddock. Gary Boomshanker certainly got excited, letting off a burst of flames with every spank.

It turns out that sleep deprivation, a splitting headache and the sweltering heat inside Swing Fling's dome on a sunny afternoon after days of rain make a great recipe for entering flow state while DJing! I've had the best time feeding off the energy, dance moves and smiles from the crowd, playing one of my most enjoyable sets in a long time. Originally I was only supposed to play an hour but when the next DJ didn't show up I was actually stoked that I could continue tapping into flow state and weaving more songs. I ended on one song that I chose specifically as a way of showing my gratitude to Swing Fling and the larger burn community: Belong by Viken Arman. There is something truly tangible about the sense of belonging I feel with the radiant humans of Swing Fling, both at my first burn and this time, being actually part of the camp.

I got even more emotional when my friend Dani from Wānaka started drumming along to my tunes - something that I'd always dreamed of someone doing during a set. Next time we should try and get the drumming amplified and recorded, too!

In closing, I'd like to share a massive insight I had at this burn: the music I like to play (and dance to) is usually more feminine than masculine, which sustains the positive valence of a dancefloor and of the dancers, and keeps spirits uplifted. This may sound straightforward, but there's something in the simple clarity I gleaned from this that is very wholesome and satisfying.

Kia ora!

Sebi aka Pangpang is a guy I've known for a long time, but haven't seen in ages. The day we met again, he performed quite stable at a party. For this podcast he joined forces with Young Wella. Enjoy.

Globetronica 03 - Pathaan [with Narcisse]

Magic, love, gratitude, belonging and connection - those words capture some of my first Splore Festival experience. These feelings are better to be present with rather than trying to freeze moments in time. 

A massive thanks goes to Lucky Star, who entrusted me with the privilege to open The Studebaker stage(formerly known as The Portal) on Saturday night, as my mobster alter ego Tony "Tassel" Caputo. Vielen lieben Dank, Joss, Jake, Christa, Sarah, Mels and Jonas. ❤️🙏🏼 You're the ones who made this happen for me and are making me feel like the luckiest guy in the world. 🥰

Saturday night was especially memorable and full of presence. I spent the night with a small crew of old and new friends who I felt so much cohesion with that night. We were exploring different stages, vibes, genres, ways of moving our bodies, and all round hilarity. That experience escapes all description, so I'll give up right there. Much love to you, you know who you are 😘 🦥

Thank you Darling!

Happy new year everyone! I had the immense pleasure of playing this 2.5 hour set at 2 am after New Years Eve at Rhythm & Alps festival 2023 in Aotearoa New Zealand, closing the lush Playhouse tent. 

The Playhouse is part of the Yumm Zone, offering couches, cushions, carpet, warm heaters, free hot chai tea and a welcoming vibe for everyone to slow down and feel at ease.

Thanks everyone from the crew for making me feel at home, and the crowd that contributed to the lovely energy in the tent.

Enjoy the journey, may it guide you into the energy of 2024.

My cup remains expanded and full after Relish Festival 2025, nestled in the lush native forest of the South Island of Aotearoa New Zealand.

With deepest gratitude for all the beautiful souls and the land, I had the absolute delight of sharing two hours of tunes on the Friday night in the Chill n Cherish Lounge, at the far end of the Delicious Kitchen tent - the very heart and soul of Relish.

I only hit record a few tracks into the set, but since it was all an impromptu multi-genre musical journey, I didn't feel called to make any edits or rerecord the start of my set.

Enjoy!

Much love,
David <3

P.S. Thanks to Bear Heart for this beautiful photo of the kitchen tent.

Friday night in the Tea Temple at the last ever New Zealand Spirit Festival North Island was such a delight - the most present, engaging and supportive crowd I've had a in a long time, turning the Tea Temple tent into quite the portal indeed! The set recording captures the journey we all went on, starting in mellow downtempo, adding a bit of a bounce pretty soon, and taking us all the way into melodic tech house at the end, with lots of vocals. 

Viel Spaß, und dankeschön! <3
