Jay Tripwire

On the first night of my first burn this past year, I found myself in the (apparently quite rare) position of playing my first ever DJ set at Burning Man on the fabled @robotheartfoundation bus.

It wasn’t until I arrived at the RH bus after completing my first deep playa bike ride that I was acutely aware of the true nature of this rolling musical monolith. The bus is a mobile sound station, a portable dance party of epic proportions. And where it went, sound would emit, humans would dance, and energy would exchange.

I got to the decks atop the bus, which was well-stocked with every Burning Man archetype I had ever imagined, and many more. Musically, I had no idea how I would be received, but I pushed forward just doing my thing in a way that I thought would translate into this alien, yet strangely familiar setting: a sound system, a DJ booth, and a dance floor.

Listening back to this mix, I am struck with an element of “you had to be there,” that it is difficult for a recording to properly convey the sentiment that myself and the audience experienced that night. When I DJ-it’s very human - I don’t use sync, looping, or Rekordbox and I never pre-plan anything. I use the CDJs as though they are turntables, and my style is especially discernible in this mix.

A big thank you to the Robot Heart crew, especially @benji.ski and @shafferj for giving me such a warm welcome and trusting this BM virgin with the reigns of their seasoned chariot, as well as @gunitaislisted for making my journey to the playa possible. Maybe we ‘ll do it again sometime.

The set started in the forest. By the end it felt like the forest was inside the set. Some of the trees moved in time, some didn’t bother. Both were right.
