I had a blast playing 7 sets at Burning Man this year! Here is one of my favorites, an afternoon hip hop set played at UFOm, which offers participants a chance to take part in an interactive foam and water performance piece that impressively resembles a group shower. This set was played to about 200 people, most of them naked and either waiting to get in or having just gotten out of the foam performance. Good times :)

Thanks to all the awesome people of Black Rock City who rock out with such precision and dedication. Y'all are amazing.

Blooming Heart gathering.. ahh my favorite type of event. It's basically a blissed utopia on an island in the NW in the summer. Doesn't get much better for me. This set was late night until shortly before sunrise.. outdoors by the tea lounge. I listen to ambient music about as much as I listen to music with beats so this is a big part of my life, stoked to share it with you! I'll be playing an ambient set (with live flute) in the main chill area for sunrise on Sunday morning at Imagine Festival the weekend of August 17th: http://imagineorcasisland.com/

LIVE AT THE LANDING OF THE PIRATE SHIP 3AM FRI NIGHT

Imagine sipping sparkling rosé straight out the bottle, snuggled up next to your friends, bundled in furry blankets and unicorn onesies...

After a weekend of non-stop dancing and debauchery you still aren't ready to go to bed quite yet. 
In fact you've found your second wind... maybe your third wind.  
You grab some more supplies and party favors from your tent and come back into the Crystal Ballers dome where tea is being served. 
There's a birthday cake and everyone is smiling.
Outside there are now hula hoopers and jugglers illuminated by the ever creeping sunlight. 
It is Sunday.
It's your day to shine.


This set materialized out of thin air with no planning or premeditation.
It ended up going well over 3 hours with people lounging and cuddle-puddling in the dome, dancing, wandering in and out from the outside, playing, laughing, drinking tea, celebrating joyously.
I'm really glad it happened, and although it's not a "perfect mix" by any means, it's a fun snapshot of some of my favorite tunes with some live trumpet laced throughout and it's a sweet memory for those of us who were there to participate.

Much Love,
CobraWolfShark
