What you are about to hear is not just any sunrise DJ set, but the farewell sunrise DJ set for a community I love and hold dear to my heart: NotaSexParty (aka NASP). 

It is also not a DJ set for just any random crowd, but rather a curation of humans that always inspire me to be my best self. Therefore, it is not a coincidence; in my humble opinion, that perhaps this is one of the best DJ sets I have woven in front of a live audience in my 20+ years of DJ craft. No detail was spared on every transition, every choice of track

On the crowd side of things it was no less epic. 

There were some people’s first time crowd surfing while The Beatle’s “Hey Jude” played as our second to last anthem as the sun FINALLY came out on our last day of camp. There was a giant circle of human chain of friends shoulder-dancing to LCD Soundsystem’s anthem “All my Friends” while we screamed/sang the lyrics from the top of our lungs. 

There was also an epic crowd sit-down right before all of this and before we slowed down our heart beats to a soft stop in unison… 

I only went there (to all of those places) because the crowd made me feel comfortable enough to do so.

It was the perfect storm of “epic-ness”. When I listened to it for the first time since performance, I realized that the musical story told here was a 2.75-hr long continuous anthem, one where I couldn’t believe we had another 40 minutes of high dance floor energy, and so I had to stop for a moment and ask for consent to keep going down “the (musical) rabbit hole”.

We danced, we laughed, we cried, we sweated, we loved, we jumped, we stomped, we screamed, we head-banged, we sang, we drummed (with Noah - @noahappel - love you brother) like a defiant crew of rebellious circus hippies in a magical co-created land… on a fucking Monday morning. 

No one could stop us. 

It was pure electronic dance music- sunrise Rock n’ Roll.
We were all in this together, we did this together.  

And without further ado, here is the recording of the farewell Sunrise NASP DJ set at the Fairy Forest SummerCamp 2021. 

Love & Beats.

This year's free/renegade burn unfolded itself most unexpectedly. 
14 days before the burn, I received an invite from Amsterdam to support a friend's art project with my music. Everything which followed felt like a streak of kind gestures from the universe. 

This art project by Studio Drift brought two hundred drones to the playa to fly a series of magical art pieces in the black rock city sky.  

A tribute for all hearts who have burned in this place. ⁣⁣⁣A gift for the burning man culture and an homage to previous artists who united this beautiful community.  ⁣

To everyone who made this trip and experience possible, thank you. I have no words. The same goes for all those who came to listen. 

All the beautiful burners who showered me with love, support, food, and gifts all week, realize you are part of this recording. 

I am sending my endless love to the Studio Drift  & Robot Heart families for this opportunity to co-create. Without words of how you gift in such a selfless manner. ⁣⁣

This was me in flow on Saturday morning before the sun came out and Diplo took over. I loved this moment in time. I wish you all a beautiful journey, and I look forward to many dusty camping adventures with most of you.

"We stand in the desert as one pulsing heart
In tribute to a legend whose soul now departs. 

Yet his wisdom remains and whispers through the desert, 
as a remembrance to perceive every breath as a present. 
.
And now we dance to the wind as a manifesto of redemption 
As we navigate the trails, of this  human inception

We are wanderers of freedom with nothing to hide, 
tracing our own roads with the sun as our guide.

We are dream alchemists. we are seekers of the light 
Trusting our footsteps while our souls are in flight.

In a quest of self-reliance finding trails back to source,
Elevating each other, as our eye gaze joins in force. 

Unveiling the illusion to raise our voices higher 
as we witness eternity spiral into the fire. 

Let us choose surrender and keep walking in trust
To remember that, in essence, all we are is dust.

Unders - Robot Heart - Free Burn 2021

Words can't describe yet another sunrise of epic proportions this time at the C.A.M.P. (Calling all Magical People) co-created gathering. Right at the beginning of my DJ set at 4:30 am on July 4th (US Independence Day) the cops showed up to try to shut the party down due to noise complaints.

I had the difficult task of keeping the decibel levels under a certain threshold, so I had to nurture a huge dance floor for the closing set of the festival until 7am somewhat quietly until we were able to ramp up the volume to proper dance floor levels.

I am not sure if it was that we all wanted this so badly, or the majestic rays of sunshine coming down upon us, all I know is that 17 encore songs & tracks after the supposedly closing "Lovely Day" song, we kept raving and raging until we almost dropped.

One of the most memorable mornings in my 21 years of DJ'ing. Here's the recording of the full 4.5 hrs of the closing sunrise DJ set. I hope it takes you all back and for those of you who weren't there I hope it brings you the sunrise  joy and magic we collectively had.

"Getting to play on the Mayan Warrior at the Burn this year was by far one of my favorite memories of 2022.

Ever since I saw the original Warrior on the playa back in 2012 at both of our first burns, I always felt drawn to it. 
Its unique art style was like nothing else I had seen that year.
So to be able to perform at both of our ten year Burning Man anniversaries was extra special. 

Playing a live set in a desert isn’t easy. Carrying your gear through the heat, equipment malfunctions, dust everywhere, nothing goes according to plan. 
But it was absolutely worth it. To play your own music and live instruments in that setting is a feeling like no other :)

Big thank you to Pablo, Amal, Rodrigo, and the whole Mayan crew for all the hard work you do and for the continued support!"

A fantastic start to 2023. Dreamscape / Crania chapeau! Location, production, and all the fun anomalies made this night memorable and the recording fire. Taking over from DJ Harvey made me kick off the set light and tropical before I found a clear direction on where to take things. Shout out to @dramian for closing it so tastefully, and much love to everyone for the overwhelming feedback this weekend.

Grateful I get to play these beautiful pieces. Many unreleased, so high fives to all the studio nerds out there i admire. 

Be sure to share with friends ..

It was one for the books! Flooded with up’s and downs. 

This was the oldest man in the history of Burning Man I believe; with extra days on the Playa we all got a little wiser.  It was wonderful to see people come together and weather the storms. 

Big thanks to my Robot Heart camp for making this after the rain party happen. Much love to everyone who came out to celebrate with us.  

This set is dedicated to everyone who made to the dust and to the ones who rocked the mud. 

XO, 
Dill
