Kaptain (DJ Set) @ THE DEEP X Denver  [08-05-2023]

late night DJ set that I played inside a geodesic dome at Sacred Acre Music Festival in Alaska. I had played a Kaptain Live set earlier that weekend, so for this DJ set I really leaned into playing friends' and other artists' music, and mashing it up with my music, and it was a blast

Kaptain (DJ Set) @ Sacred Acre Music Festival [09-08-2024]

One of the first times I played this track was at Daily Shred Festival @ Copper Mountain, Colorado. Little known fact - I was still recovering from my first time having COVID when I played this set. The whole week leading up to the show I was debating whether to do it, but decided to push through (and keep my distance from people...luckily it was outdoors). It was already a struggle, but then the temperature dropped to 15-degrees and it started snowing. I had hand warmers in my hoodie pocket, and every time I wasn't playing keys, I shoved my hands in there for as long as I could. The funny thing is, even though it was a tough one for me...most times people come up to me to tell me they've seen me play, it's that show. And, most people who've seen me more than once say it is by far their favorite set.

I went to my first Sonic Bloom Music Festival in 2019 while driving from California to Colorado, to move. That weekend I set a goal to play the festival. In 2022, @phyphr and I played a b2b set at Sonic Bloom - and this track was a highlight of that set. 

I made this one by blending my track, Open That Door, with @thefunkhunters - empire (@phibes remix). Shoutout to them for making such a banger.

Never Will (feat. Brizzy & Willdabeast)

This live version of empty without music brings me back to the first time I headlined Larimer Lounge, which was my first headline in Denver. I'm returning to the Larimer Lounge on November 20, 2025 - can't wait to run it back and do it way bigger.
