Happy to share one of my most requested sets from my archive. This is back from 2018 on the Big Imagination 747 airplane at Burning Man. This was a set the ended up with quite a bit of drama, but overall it was a really special sunrise B2B with my brother-from-another-mother, Mark Slee. Always feels natural and easy playing with him.

As a note, the public version on soundcloud is a snippet of the entire recording. If you'd like to hear the whole thing, it's available to my Patreon subscribers at https://www.patreon.com/atishmusic.

Hope you enjoy!

Big thanks to my Patreon supporters, VIP tier and above:  Alex Kremer, Darius, Darryll Fish, Drew Proud, Jarry Ahmad, John Carter, Michael Alahverdian, Michael Singleton, Rami Zeidan, Reza, Scotty F, Shah&Shah, Vincent Casanova

Lee Burridge - Robot Heart - Burning Man - 2013

After six years of believing that I was fully done with Burning Man, the stars happened to align this summer when I got a calling to go. 

Back in 2016, I never thought that Burning Man would allow me to press the reset button and relieve myself from many things I was carrying emotionally. Then suddenly when I was out on the playa in my element, I began to feel myself again: connected, worry-free, present. 

Thanks to 11 days of complete disconnection from my computer and phone, I was left at the mercy of nature’s elements which brought me back to a place of peace and serenity.  

It was such a joy to take part in Burning Man’s social experiment, one that unites a community of like minded beings from various backgrounds. 

I loved getting my hands dirty while building the camp, helping out with a friend's art structure and chatting with new and old friends every single day.  This was a whole new experience for me; an experience that filled my heart and inspired me in powerful ways. 

For the first time, I can safely say that I have been transformed by my time on the playa, and for that I feel grateful and humbled. 

Memorable moments like riding solo on my bike, letting go of plans, eating nourishing food, getting totally lost in the city, visiting random camps and more often than not connecting with strangers was pure magic. For me, this is the essence of Burning Man: an experience of contribution, full of serendipity and spontaneity. 
 
Here’s a personal highlight of mine that I’d like to share: 
It’s Friday evening, and I have been chosen to set the mood on the Robot Heart bus (which I must admit was one of my favorite nights out there). Here I am pre-set drinking Sake and sharing stories with my dear friend Benjamin Alexander.  The bus is parked at camp when I jump on top and begin to play for 20 minutes before the wheels start turning. Our drive to the deep playa begins, and with that a brutal dust storm follows.  I was instantly taken back in time to my 2015 Burn when I was fascinated by the fairy-lit bicycles chasing the bus, lighting up the space with an array of moving colors.  Eventually, after an hour of driving around, the wind stops, the dust settles, and the bus finds its parking spot for the night.  I finally remove my dust mask and watch the vast space in front me light up as I finish my set.  An unforgettable moment, visual, crowd…everything was perfect. 
 
To all of you who are reading this who were there dancing and glowing on the playa, I would like to say a huge thank you!  I will cherish that moment for the rest of my life.  You inspired me to smile and shine. 
 
Until next year.

Mira b2b Jonathan Kaspar - Pink Mammoth - Burning Man 2024

¨It's always an honor to play at the Warrior and this one was special in so many levels. A new chapter began with the Galaxyer, it´s different but felt the same. It was Saturday night after the man burned surrounded by dust storms and fire twisters. Saturdays are always like our New Year Celebration, sharing with our family and friends, everyone is still buzzing after a tough week playing in the desert. It's always challenging to play on this night as everyone is running on fumes, but it feels special to be a part of the closing ceremony. Usually Burning Man is the time of the year when I really unplug but this year I had to be close to my family, I’m thankful I was able to be back in time to say goodbye. Love You. ¨

Mira & Tara Brooks - Pink Mammoth - Burning Man 2017

I like to imagine sometimes where the music will travel to. Who it will be given to or shared with. Whether it will be played at an after party in London or listened to on a set of headphones while watching the sun rise from behind a mountain in Tibet. I wonder which tracks you'll fall in love with instantly and which will grow on you as time passes. 

I know this is a really long mix and the journey into it and out the other side takes some commitment but, on the plus side, it saves you having to look for anything else to play for ages and ages.

 I hope you love the tracks as much as I do and thanks for listening.

As always, this is for Christina. For all those long nights working in the cloud

With love, Lee

Lee Burridge - Requiem For A Daydream

Please allow us to show you something,

If you were at this years burning man you know how incredible it was. It needs no explanation nor can we explain it in words. You felt the somehow elevated vibe in the air that somehow made every cell in all of our bodies just get in some sort of beautiful flow. This year we made a special edit which you’ll hear at the end of the set made especially for our sunrise set at robot heart. During this moment at sunrise, we all laughed and even cried together. This is what we live for, these moments on top of the Robot Heart bus. 

If you weren’t able to make it this year, or you decided this was the year to take off, we dedicate this mix to you and we also dedicate this mix to infinite love to all, Weeeee are in a romantic mood these days. Cause love and music have no boundaries! We want to share it with everyone. 
Yup insert some 🧀 here.   Genuinely. 

Thank you Robot Heart for your Unconditional commitment to love, music and the Playa. 

Big loves 
Your two Canadian music lovers — BLONDISH

Blond:ish - Robot Heart Burning Man 2018

This demo is inspired by my tag team burn set with swamy at Burning Man 2010 on the Bot w/ my Robot Heart family... one track is a track that lee played on the bot... loved it.

I’m happy to release my recording from Sandbox Festival in Hurghada Egypt. I always love playing the Middle East. The sights, sounds, tastes, and smells are very different than my home, all of which represent one of my favorite aspects of DJing: getting enjoy the world’s diversity. Beyond that, I’ve found that the people of the region are an incredibly friendly and passionate bunch, so playing a festival that attracts the heads from many across the region was special for me.

The Sandbox mainstage was a big one - these stages are sometimes tricky for me as I feel pressured to go for the jugular and bang out a medley of big drops for those hands in the air moments, but I resisted the pressure and went instead for undulation between the deep moments building to the big ones while maintaining a steady groove through. Hope that idea came through, hope you enjoy the set, and can’t wait to make my way back to the Middle East!
Thanks @moagalleryph (IG) for the photo.

Hoj's 2012 post-sunrise set atop the Robot Heart at Burning Man has become one of his most popular. What many people don't know is Lee Burridge joined him after his set for an epic back-to-back session that went on into the afternoon. Hoj and Lee found the recording on an old hard drive, and wanted to share.

The Journey…



(2022-Present) - I'm back in the game... baby... but with a newfound respect for my ears and not playing too many gigs. xo   

(9.2021) After a 4-year break from the bus…
I tested my ears w/ 4 sets at the Free Burn. 
for Geo! <3 <3 <3 

(9.2017-9.2021) 
Burning Man (2017) I played an epic sunrise set with Swamy on top of the bus. It was magic and the perfect ending to my old ways of playing. I'm still searching for a new way to express music. Stay tuned!

After 20 years of music selecting I am on the bench from playing gigs. I am giving my ears a bit of time to hopefully settle down. I developed screaming tinnitus two years ago (winter of 2016) and have played less than a handful of sets since. The recovery from a set is about two months and while I'm playing the best way to describe the feeling is "sound penetrates my ears like a probing alien." - Me - (2016)

 Bio from the Good old days (till 2016)

John Dill is an internationally renowned DJ who began his career with residencies at legendary house havens like Le Souk Sunday Sessions and Sullivan Room. He immediately emerged as one of the most beloved personas in NYC nightlife and has been on an upward trajectory ever since. He fine tuned his signature sound in Ibiza back in 2000 and quickly gained a cult like following in underground venues throughout North America, the Caribbean and Asia.  

Known for his magical ability to read the crowd and select the perfect track from his eclectic record collection, John Dill’s sound is unmistakable. Whether one of his deep, soulful gems dropped into a party or a mind-bending surprise at one of his acclaimed marathon sets at Burning Man, the sound of Dill on the decks makes any venue a destination.  

A long time resident at Robot Heart, Dill has shared the decks with luminaries like Lee Burridge, NU, Marques Wyatt, Mark Farina, Derrick Carter, Tom Middleton and Oceanus Orientalis to name a few.  

In recent years, Dill has expanded beyond the underground house music scene to include more prominent venues with broader appeal. He’s a regular fixture on Richard Branson’s Necker Island thanks to Mai Tai, where he once had Sir Richard dancing on a couch. He's also a favorite on the festival circuit where he inspires love from audiences at Desert Hearts, Wonderfruit and the more cutting edge crowd at Further Future.
