After shutting down the bot following an incredibly powerful and meaningful temple burn for our camp, many of you thought that was the end of our 2022 Burning Man. However, a few hours later, the bus appeared in deep playa with Nico Stojan at the helm, just in time for one last sunrise. Here's looking forward to many more surprises and unscheduled moments together in 2023.

"What an honor it was to return to the Robot Heart bus for the final sunrise set of last year’s Burn! 

Originally, the Robot Heart team wasn’t planning on playing music Monday morning, so I was super happy when they asked me to play the last sunrise on the playa.

When I arrived at camp early Monday, the RH crew was just waking up and the bus was still sleeping, but there was an excitement in the air - so often it is those unplanned experiences at Burning Man that create the most magic.

We drove out to deep playa in the dark and before long had gained a wonderful crowd, everyone coming together to dance away their final hours in the dust. People were exhausted, but also energized from their week in the desert and not ready to return to the default world.

It was a super chilled last sunrise set that I thoroughly enjoyed - an unexpected morning that turned out to be unforgettable!"

Saturday, 7am, G camp, Burning Man 2024

Kotoe, Madmotormiquel and myself (Nacho Isa) take on the decks for the last G camp party of the week. The rest is history. A wild morning into the afternoon. Ten hours of ups and downs. 

If you were there you know what we are talking about. If you weren't this will give you an idea of what that morning was.

Thanks to everyone that came to support us and in particular to all the Gs that were a key component to the magic of the day.

When people ask me what I play, I never know exactly how to answer… Music today is so eclectic—one track can belong to multiple genres or none at all. I play what I love, and that depends on the ambiance, the place, the people, the vibe, and of course, my mood. But at the core, what truly brings me joy is happy, jazzy, soulful music that makes you smile and dance. Enjoy this set—house rules!

MARIA NOCHEYDIA @ BODA DE MUERTOS | NOVEMBER 2024

If you are about to dive into this set, we invite you to read these words, as they will give deeper meaning to your experience with this musical landscape.

An Orchestra for the Spirit was played live in Black Rock City, riding the Maxa Deer. It was an offering of frequencies and words to bring unity to the Burning Man community that was about to witness the temple rise in flames.

As we believe in synchronicities over coincidences, we are sensitive and deeply touched by the powerful fires that burned for weeks in our beloved California. We contemplated what our best offering could be to support, and realized it is the perfect timing to share hours of music and inspiring poetry, to navigate the mysterious waves of trascendence and trust. 

From our hearts, this set is for everyone feeling the painful part of a shedding skin, a letter lost, a broken heart, or a physical or metaphorical home brought to ashes that now requires full trust to rise again and build a new landscape.

Here’s to new landscapes. 

We allow this orchestra for the spirit to tell the rest. 

A wave of gratitude to Noraj Cue and Burgs for your talent and wisdom imprinted into this set. 

Thank you, Maxa, and thank YOU for listening and being part of the deep layers of being human. 

Love,

It was my 40th birthday on July 7th and Berlin was calling. It was the Zero takeover weekend at Kater and the crew was kind enough to let us put a 10 hour session on the lineup for Sunday morning on the infamous Kiosk stage. When we arrived the party had been going on already 40+ hours and wouldn't end for another 40. I was lucky enough to share the decks with dear friends @RICHE @Steveyricks and @Ry-X. 

It was almost 10 years to the day from the first time @thugfucker brought me there for the opening party and Kater has just gotten better and more special every time I've gone back. I couldn't think of a better place to celebrate.


Brett Love Live from the Kiosk @ Kater Blau Sunday July 7th 2024

The most beautiful setting. Deep into the night the vibes were high, but also emotional. I loved playing this set and I enjoyed every minute of it. If you were there, this is to revive a really special moment, if you weren't there, i hope this can transport you there.

Thanks you to the DV experiences team for an incredible night into the day

Nacho Isa @ OAXACA EXPERIENCE 2025 | OAXACA, MEXICO

Another one from my favorite party of NY. The closing of Season 6 with over 600 guests, for another memorable day into night. 

This is my 2 hour set playing at sunset, building up for Theo Meier. I was feeling particularly bouncy that day, which I believe is reflected in the music :) Hope you enjoy! 

Thanks again Jon and Alaya for putting together such a beautiful space for us all <3

Salimbeni - Hot Situations: Sunset Set (New York May '25)

I've been DJing for 12 years now; Originally from London, spent a few years in Asia, now based in NYC. Playing all kinds of house; melodic, funky, minimal, lounge, deep, tech, disco.  

I take pride in channeling a crowd's energy — especially the finer, subtle things in DJ life. Whether it be seeing a foot tapping, a new person joining the dancefloor, or the smiles I hopefully create, my aim is to ensure you leave with a feeling of warmth, safety, and happiness.

I have had the honor of playing incredible venues around the world; from Ku De Ta in Bali, Ministry of Sound London, to Public Records and Nublu in NYC, and festivals such as Burning Man or CAMP.
