Magicians on a Quest encapsulates three decades of musical exploration—a mystical expedition birthed from the depths of profound emotional currents and sparked by a transformative experience in Ibiza in summer 2023.

With true admiration for the artists showcased in this set, whose creativity I hold in high esteem and whose music I gratefully embrace, I wish you an epic 5h. magic ride.

Big shout to everyone that supported us in our 2024 NAUA Season Launch. An epic start of the year with guest DJ Minoa and my fellow mates from NAUA, InDeLa, Bob Marius & Medusone. 

WARNING: flanger, dub echo and knob fading overdose in some tunes. Got very excited that day!

NAUA Season Launch 2024

Mallorca’s summer officially kicked off with our annual POOL PARTY! With stellar sets from J Pool and Palosanto, joined by the NAUA Crew, and hosted at the beautiful Casa Wald (huge thanks to Andreas, Mika, and Sam for being incredible hosts), we had a phenomenal time with nearly 450 dancers. Here’s my closing set, which I enjoyed from beginning to end. Have fun!

NAUA Pool Party Closing Set

A legendary night for setting new intentions, featuring some old school bangers and a lively mini crowd of dedicated dancers. Sharing the booth with the talented Mr. Alberto Aranda and hosted under a Bedouin tent at the humble paradise of Can Sonrie, courtesy of my dear brother Raul. You guys made my night!

SAN JUAN SEEDS 2024

The closing of NAUA's 6th season was nothing short of epic! Watching our family grow over the years into a community of friends, co-creators, marketers, healers, and dancers has been incredible. This season's finale at Casa Wald brought together deep grooves, hypnotic rhythms, unforgettable drops, and loving energy that filled the air and created a magical moment to remember.

It was an honor to play alongside my fellow NAUA mates and the talented Peruvian producer Maribel Tafur, with the privilege of closing out the night. Enjoy every beat, and see you all next season!

NAUA Season Closing 2024

We can’t explain love. We can’t explain grief. We just can’t. We try and try, but love and grief can only be experienced, felt, and expressed through us.

I find both coexisting on the same axis since her soul found its way home. And in her way home, I found a void unlike anything I could’ve ever imagined. How could I have known that after begging God to take her — because I couldn’t bear to see her suffer any longer — I’d one day ache for her presence?

You helped me find light in the abyss of my shadow. You guided me along the painful yet luminous path of acceptance, teaching me to embrace what hurt the most: watching you suffer.

You gave me the life I once wanted to take from myself because I couldn’t make sense of the contradictions echoing in my head. You gave me the life I’m now committed to living, fully and fiercely.

On your way home, you birthed a void. One I’ll honor for the rest of my life. A void that keeps leading me back to the infinite source of love I hold for you, Mum.

With eternal gratitude to all the artists whose talents create the threads through which our emotions can be woven and released: #Burgs, #Nils Frahm, #Yehezkel Raz, #Savanna, #Soren Friebøe, #Deuter, #Al Lethbridge, #FaceSoul, #Hang Massive, #Re_Axis, #Lemon & Soul, #Majbritte Ulrikkeholm, #Liquid Bloom, #Awaré, #Kronos Quartet and #Estas Tonne
