Recorded live.  I was honoured to set the vibe for the second installment of LadyK’s Sexy Lady Show at the #Waverley in #Cumberland, BC.

LadyK’s Sexy Lady Show (djladyk.ca) is a unique offering: a sizzling dance floor with powerful and sensual pole performances throughout. The whole night was an unabashed presentation of feminine empowerment at its finest!

Reflections: Amapiano Warmup for LadyK Vol.2

Recorded Live at Dante's Infurno Thursday Night 10 pm - 12 am

My first ever set at a burner event and I had a great time lighting a fire at Dante's to get the weekend started.  The vibe was like nothing else.

Dante's is a two storey raunchy strip club heavily inspired by the movie Beetlejuice, Dante's is the sex-positive Burning Man theme camp where you can meet frisky furries, sexy critters and freaky animal people of Otherworld.

Studio Retake of my set from Saturday 6 pm - 7pm

Otherworld's only Pirate-themed Bar. YARRRRRR!!!

Reflections: Thirrrsty Barrr

We were pleased to finally host @emash on our stellar Friday night lineup at Otherworld 2023. em.ash has been a Vancouver Island staple DJ for many years, and chances are that if you walked up to a stage at any point during Otherworld and said "ooh, who is this? This is really good!" it was probably him on the decks :)

He took us deep from 11PM - 12AM with this sophisticated deep tech and progressive set. Enjoy!

Studio Retake of my full set Saturday morning from 4 am - 5 am. 

The E.C. crew is from Nanaimo, BC and the sound was provided by #RenegadeSoundCollective

Hey, remember that time we used to go out in Toronto and there was a live-to-air dance TV show, and we’d bust out some dance moves for the cameras, listen to some bitchin’ 90’s dance music, then go record a message for our moms and have it aired on national TV. You don’t? 

Well, now you can. Only this time the music will be better, there’ll be a bunch of other cool events, and the camera crew won’t broadcast you on national TV dancing on a podium with some guy in a mesh shirt.

This was my final set at Otherworld 2023. It was the perfect culmination of an incredible weekend filled with performances on six different sound stages. I was particularly excited about playing on the forest stage because of the connection I had made with the Lamplit crew earlier in the year.

After wrapping up my set at Thirrrsty Barrr, I had a tight schedule to make it to the other side of Otherworld within an hour. Luckily, I found a friend with an art car who offered me a ride. We made a brief stop to check out another sound stage before heading towards the forest.

When we arrived, RVH's set was at its peak. I was filled with a sense of joy from the weekend, overflowing with gratitude, and even a touch of confidence. Together, with the vibrant energy of the dance floor and the engaged atmosphere of the lounge, we delved into an extraordinary vibe. I truly hope that the essence of that remarkable experience resonates in this studio retake.
