Hi Friends 

My friend Bugieman reminded me that there was a challenge going on to put together a mix of Anjunabeats tunes to celebrate the label's 20 year anniversary. My mix ended up a bit long, might upload a shorter one, but here's my attempt! I couldn't even come close to putting all the tunes in this I wanted to, but I tried to cover the breadth of Anjunabeats sounds over the years. I had fun. Here's to another 20 y'all.

Song of Fire (Extended Mix)- Jaytech

Anjunabeats 20 Years Brassbeard Mix - Extended

Hi Friends, 

Its been too damn long I've been looking at these songs and not doing anything about it, so here's a new one. Is the mixing perfect? No. Did switching soundcards prevent the latency crackle gremlin from returning? Also no. There's no theme; this mix covers a lot of ground and the only real through line is that I like all of these songs. So if you dig em, enjoy.

Limit - Riggel 
Nova - Yotto
Cherouveim (Original Mix)- Dizharmonia

sometimes it's scary but it's still just you and me (Extended Mix) - Leaving Laurel

Hi Friends, 

Here's the long overdue next installment of The Aftershave, mixed live and improved from The Tea Lounge @ The Studio in downtown Reno, NV.

The Aftershave 6 - Live from Tea Lounge

Brassbeard is a new progressive house & techno project I have been playing around with for about a year now- and it finally came time to start making that idea more than just something I talked about.

Sometimes the bass can't scratch the emotional itch this lovely corner of dance music can.  Happy Listening!

The Aftershave 2

The world is kind of strange right now, I got some personal piece of mind putting this one together. This started out as a gig set for a show that was cancelled this month. I decided rather than let this sit on my hard drive I'd share it here.  This set starts out in the deep end with some darker melodic techno, then gradually opens up into a more progressive sound. Apologies for leaning so hard on the Cristoph-

Sunday Sessions 1 8-23-2020

Another Sunday mix session from Brassbeard and Bugieman. This one was an absolute treat! We were really picking our music well on this one- it was an absolute blast. DJing can often be a "one man show" kind of experience, but when you get in a groove with someone, its wild how a set turns into a conversation.

Sunday Sessions 2  9 - 6- 2020

Here we are- installment #3 of this Sunday Sessions project with my man Bugieman! As we've spent more time in eachother's libraries, the song selection is only getting better. We had an absolute ball mixing through this one. We definitely keep the energy more subdued much further into the mix, but we definitely rock it out towards the end. Hope y'all dig it, we sure do. 

Tracklist to come

Sunday Sessions 3 9-20-2020

Well, like lots of great things, this project had to come to an end. I have relocated away from my intrepid parter-in-house, Bugieman, but not before we could record one final mix! We had all kinds of plans for slammin' progressive house and trance tunes for this one, but ended up doing a big rise and fall through our more melodic tastes, hitting some old favorites, and grooving out on the nostalgia of a summer well spent. These sets have been a high point of the year for me, and reconnected me to a dear friend who rekindled in me a love for this kind of music. I hope that comes through in these mixes. 

Much love and more to come from this next chapter- 

Brassbeard
