This is not a party mix, although there are celebratory moments.  This is heART opening music, with soul crushing glimpses.  This is the telling of an epic saga tale, that could not be summarized in one hour with words.  And so, I was invited to attempt with contemplative music.  Grief for a loved one who has passed on - with a ripple effect that can be felt across decades of community love.  Together, we hold space for this moment of love and loss, of memories and the clinging to of small beautiful details, of celebration for an entity that remains with us as we continue to hold close in the quiet spaces. of. our hearts. <3

Stuck in COVID lock down, Brian (aka DJ ElectroFi) wanted to tip toe away from his usual house and disco vibes. This set is pumping techno with synths, vocal hooks, and a little acid thrown in for good measure. We hope you enjoy the set, and the special tribute at the end recorded live at the trash fence.

Opulent Temple Podcast #144 - DJ ElectroFi - COVID Lockdown 2021

Last Saturday was one of the best nights we have ever hosted in or 23 year career together.  Every DJ prepared their set and it really showed.

In my career, last Saturday was one of the best crowds I have ever played for.  I am still getting chills from people dancing, clapping, singing, and yes people on each others shoulders, like they were at a festival.  

I originally wasn't going to post my set, but because it was such a positive experience, I thought I should release it into the wild.  This mix is for everyone who was there, and everyone who wanted to, but couldn't make it.

Upon listening, I feel that this is one of my best.  I hope you can take a moment to listen and relive the magic that happened on that bouncing Monkey Loft deck last Saturday at LOST.

I was stoked to return to Northern Nights Music Festival for my second year playing – I threw down a Friday night set at the Submerged Sessions stage for an hour of trippy vocals, rolling baselines, house, minimal, techno n' breaks. This was quite fun to hear these tracks blasting out on a proper Danley soundsystem (thanks, Jobi!!) – it's one of my fav sets I've played in awhile. Thanks to everyone who joined 💜

Sadboimxstt’s 5-track disco house EP is a deep dive into the soulful heartbeat of the dancefloor. Built on a foundation of lush melodic keys and hypnotic grooves, each track breathes new life into carefully chosen samples from the golden eras of disco, jazz, and soul spanning the 70s through the 90s.

The EP is defined by its memorizing vocals, lifted from timeless records and reshaped into modern-day anthems that blur nostalgia with fresh energy. Funk-driven basslines roll beneath shimmering chords, while crisp percussion locks dancers into an irresistible rhythm.

Every song carries Sadboimxstt’s unique groove — a blend of warm analog textures, hypnotic repetition, and emotional depth that turns simple loops into moments dancing being free. The result is a body of work that celebrates the past while pushing disco house into new, melodic territory.

This project isn’t just for the dancefloor — it’s for late-night drives, sunrise sessions, and anyone chasing that euphoric moment when music feels both timeless and brand new.

This is the live recording of my set from the Bubbles & Bass fundraiser on the boat in Bushwick on Aug 2nd! Really proud of this set, its a mix of classics, and funk, and it bumps!! My Bubbles sets are always very special to me as I only play these kinds of sets for them <3 )'(
