Babes n Beats

I have been blessed to host a night of the Chill-Out stage the last couple years at the best little festie that never happened here in So Cal - The Gathering.  As the party is hosted by the impecacble Chino Sound, I get to play pretty bass music the way it was meant to be experienced.  For the 11th year, I ended up playing a 10-hour set, but as luck would have it, my recorder only captured the first ~6 hours.  I've promised a friend I'd re-record those last 4 hours and give him the full 10 hour set, so if you would like that too, go to www.djleiftime.com and leave me your email with a comment.  I'll send it to you as well.

Dawntempo @ The Gathering XI

This one! Transglobally good groove of Gritty and gossamer, delicate and driving, spaciously dense and playfully serious Afroblessed, Latin scorched, Heart-Opening, Booty-Shaking levity. 

Here's a mix of deep, pulsing and vibrant global magic. A late night house music journey on the playa that extracts itself from an incredibly tumultuous burn: The heat, the wind, the destruction, the dust...then rain. 

The elements in all their adversity did little to restrain an incredible dancefloor at Sound Garden where I dropped MY most inspired set since attending my first burn 30 years ago. While massive thanks to the dancefloor for its constant inspiration that night, an even bigger thanks goes out to my friend Mark Duncan, the inimitable and indefatigable visionary and host who curated and produced yet another extraordinary week at Sound Garden.

(On a final note, the closing track (Florian Gasperini - Back Home) is dedicated to our friend John Rider who passed away at the burn, at camp, Weds morning. His happy place. He would not have wanted it any other way)

Never Stop Dancing is a mix series dedicated to all those who find themselves locked in the groove, time and time again. To those who find themselves eyes closed, lost in the music. To those who say "one more song" more than once. To those who live for the collective joy, community, and boundless self-expression of the dance floor. To those who never stop dancing. This mix series is focused on amplifying the sounds of DJs and producers in the Kootenays and British Columbia who honour the rich tradition of house, disco, and techno in their sets. 

@Deejaybasscat is a Kootenay staple. During festival season, she can be found bouncing up and down experiencing pure euphoria while DJing to the backdrop of beautiful BC landscapes. Her genre fluid style is known to get booties shakin' and feet steppin'. Bass Cat is also an amazing visual artist who has graced many-a-stage with her wiggly cedars pictured in the mix graphic. This dance floor enthusiast always brings the vibe, and I can't wait for you to check this soulful mix! Best enjoyed on a good sound system.
