Soul (FnF 4th of July BBQ)

I had the incredible honor of playing on the main stage of FnF this year at 10:45pm. The theme of this year's campout was, "Balls" so the set features a couple of original tracks I made to go along with the theme. Thanks so much to the coordinators, the volunteers, the music team, and all the amazing people for making the return to FnF such a joy. 

If you'd like to get the full (unreleased) "Balls" tracks, you can find them (and download AIFF to use) here:

On week’s RIPEcast we’re bringing you a scorching set Space Cowboys’ dancefloor igniter, Leyl Master Black, recorded live at Breakfast of Champions + It’s A New Day 2023. Leyl’s mix of techy, funky, and soulful house is regularly featured in the SF club and Burner scene, and her set at the Space Cowboy’s Outer Space stage at BoC absolutely went off! 

Here’s more about the mix from Leyl: 
“Breakfast of Champions is my favorite party of the year, and I always have a blast planning my set so I can bring something special to the stage. I'm so proud to be a part of the Space Cowboys and to produce events that bring our amazing community together. Thank you to everyone who came out to dance and celebrate with us!!!”

Closing out the poolside at Friends and Family has been a dream of mine for many years. I am honored to share my love of dance music with the talented folks at FnF. These tracks are some of my current favorites this summer.

FnF  Poolside 2023 June

Dusty Rhino 33 - DJ Dan came out and rocked the Rhino for our joint Dusty Rhino/Opulent Temple party we hosted Tuesday evening of the Burn this year.  It was an eerie night out in the middle of the playa as the dust storm rolled in.  Dan appeared from nowhere and stepped up and rocked this great, rocking and somewhat old school set.  Great preview to our Afterburn party at Public Works we are hosting in October 17....DJ Dan will be coming to rock it again for us...

Without doubt, DJ ICON has become an iconic figure in the U.S. dance music industry and beyond. With a career spanning 25 years, she has captivated audiences the world over with her bass-heavy cross-genre House, Breaks and Bass Music sound; magnetic stage presence, skillful DJ mixes and productions. It’s no wonder why she’s been dubbed one of the leading ladies of this domain.  

Starting in 1996 at age 16, ICON diligently rose through the ranks of the San Francisco underground at a time when female DJs and promoters were few. In just a few years, her skills and growing reputation had already landed her numerous residencies in San Francisco, as well as a steady flow of stateside and international bookings. ICON has also gained success in radio and television in addition to rocking dancefloors. Among her accolades are releases on well-known labels, features in two TV series, a spot in Shejay’s “Top 100 Female DJs”, being voted one of San Francisco’s best in the Nitevibe “Top 10 DJ Dreamteam”, scoring a coveted sponsorship from Pioneer Pro DJ and building a huge fanbase on her social media pages and Soundcloud.

ICON has toured the world performing throughout the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe and Asia at world renowned clubs such as 1015 Folsom and Ruby Skye in San Francisco, Limelight in NYC, Fabric and Matter in London, and Avalon in LA; as well as world-class music festivals such as Coachella Music Festival, Ultra Music Festival, Burning Man and Fuel Festival in Singapore. ICON has shared stages with top tier artists such as Underworld, The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, Ladytron, Paul Oakenfold, Adam Freeland, Armand Van Helden, Deekline & Wizard, The Stanton Warriors, The Freestylers, Evil Nine, Elite Force, Uberzone, Bassbin Twins, DJ Icey, DJ Rap and many more. 

Aside from being busy behind the decks, ICON has also been busy behind the scenes promoting events in SF and NYC over the years. Currently she is a core member of Opulent Temple, a predominant DJ collective that is responsible for producing a large scale sound camp annually at Burning Man Arts and Music Festival, as well as year-round events that are staples in the San Francisco nightlife. 

ICON has had extensive history on the radio waves with past residencies and guest spots on respected dance music programs such as Thump Funk and Boombox Mix Sessions on SiriusXM, Liquid Todd’s Solid State on K-ROCK in NYC (Infinity Broadcasting); IBreaks and NuBreaks in London, Radio Record in Russia; and a plethora of dance music radio shows in her hometown, including House Nation on Wild 94.9 FM, Subsonic on Live 105, Zendada on Energy 92.7, and Future Breaks on KUSF. She has also made her way onto the small screen: In 2001, she was featured as one of twelve up-and-coming American DJs in “Disc Jockey,” a 12-part documentary series that aired on Showtime™. In 2004, she was the DJ on the internationally syndicated MTV™ series “The Wade Robson Project,” a dance competition hosted by the self-titled choreographer.

Lastly, ICON’s production endeavors have proven to be as exciting as her DJ career. Her releases on Illeven Eleven Records: “Welcome To My Dancefloor” with Dustin Hulton featuring Nikki Carabello and “Wha?” a collaboration with Bay Area producer Ground_Control had steller reviews and support by leading artists in the industry. “Dancefloor” charted at #8 and #22 on the Beatport Breakbeat and Electro charts with a great review in Mixmag. The KMFX remix of “Wha?” charted at #12 on the Beatport Breakbeat chart. ICON & GC have also done remixes of “Reload” for Deekline and Ed Solo feat. Million Dan on Rat Records and “Draggin” for Enough Weapons on Vibrance Recordings.

So what’s next for this powerhouse bass princess? More mixes, productions and remixes are in the works, as she continues to make her mark in the worldwide dance music industry.
