2022 marked my 7th burn - and it was by far my hardest.  It's no secret that the playa was unforgiving.  

Unprecedented bumpy roads, insane white-out early build conditions, and global warming induced heat waves made this years burn pretty SHITTY.  Truly fighting for survival while having the best time of your life (HA).  12 days on playa and my body is broken, my wheels have come off, I’ve lost a bunch of stuff incl my mind…..but regardless my heart was still a buzz ✨✨

Going solo was a new experience.  From driving a box truck while towing an art car, to learning to work with generators in the quest for a cool AC sleep…..going to hell station to pump gas…..it wasn’t at all easy.  I spent the first 3 days crying and purging all the feels from the last few years.  Planning weddings, DJing, hearding a crew of faffing cats with a megaphone…..all part of the experience.  To the lady who thought I worked the VIP line at a certain art car with mega lazers, may my ill-fitted suit and a dated microsoft headset forever be your guiding light to getting up on the bus 🤣

I’m grateful to have this place of self expression and discovery, where each year my community grows….so many friends, so many laughs!  this is why I keep coming back over and over….just like a big family reunion with a bunch of creative FREAKS ☺️.  No limits on what is possible…..and no amount of photos will ever capture the micro-moments of ingenuity, wit or humor.  It is incredible how resourceful and resilient burners are.  and how infectious the feeling of mass participation is 💓

My set at Pink Mammoth was a piece of this moment captured in time, and I hope this recording can get you excited to return to the playa this year, when many of us sit it out!  The fire burns on! xx

My favorite 2 hours from closing at FÜNK in April, 2024.  It was a joy to be trusted to take the reins and guide the peak of the night into the wee hours of the morning.

PREMIERE: Kate Stein & Lord Fascinator — Horse House [Eskimo Recordings]

Kate Stein | HÖR - January 13 / 2025

Clubland is filled with duos, sometimes they grew up sharing bunk beds, sometimes they met on a dancefloor, or sometimes -as with Lord Fascinator & Kate Stein- they met on a tropical island after one had commissioned the other to create several giant monsters for a music video. 

Fast forward through ten years of costumes, chemicals, religious art projects and "Mad Max yoga retreats", they have finally cemented their relationship in the studio with their Primary EP, 4 tracks of psychedelic synth-pop, cowboy disco and cosmically inclined iridescent electronica.   

First up is country touched club banger Horse House, a track that combines a galloping hypnotic house beat and pulsating synths with all manner of Morricone'esque whistles, lonesome guitar twangs, equine snorts and, of course, the repeated chant that "there's a horse in this house". 

The track may have started life as a joke but its effect on dancefloors has been anything but and Horse House joins the select ranks of other fine western themed classics that have curiously littered the history of club music.

"Smiling like a rainbow, Burning like an asteroid”   

Clubland is filled with duos, sometimes they grew up sharing bunk beds, sometimes they met on a dancefloor, or sometimes -as with Lord Fascinator & Kate Stein- they met on a tropical island after one had commissioned the other to create several giant monsters for a music video. Fast forward through ten years of costumes, chemicals, religious art projects and "Mad Max yoga retreats", they have finally cemented their relationship in the studio with their Primary EP, 4 tracks of psychedelic synth-pop, cowboy disco and cosmically inclined iridescent electronica.   

Living in LA in 2022, where they found themselves sharing a crumbling castle turret, the EP started to take shape when Kate - the aforementioned monster maker and now up & coming DJ and producer - shared her latest demos with Lord Fascinator. Aided and abetted by both the musical ghosts of Laurel Canyon and a regular supply of caffeine the pair began to craft these demos into an EP that segues from sublime synth pop odes to chemical love and intoxicating attraction through to country disco without missing a beat.   

The EP kicks off with Chemistry, a song whose spacey synth arpeggios wrap themselves around trippy house beats and a bass line that pulses like the heartbeat of a planet. It's a third eye opener of a track, one that kicks down the doors of perception only to find a secret nightclub filled with neon smiles hidden behind and perfectly sets the playful mood for everything that follows. As it happens what follows is the cosmically inclined synth-pop and trance inducing disco of Asteroid. A paean to "falling in love on drugs" Asteroid somehow finds the hitherto unknown sweet spot between Spiritualized and Lipps Inc. and, thanks in no small part to Lord Fascinator's celebratory chorus, blazes like its namesake across the night sky.   

So far, so cosmic. What you may not have been expecting then is country touched club banger Horse House, a track that combines a galloping hypnotic house beat and pulsating synths with all manner of Morricone'esque whistles, lonesome guitar twangs, equine snorts and, of course, the repeated chant that "there's a horse in this house". The track may have started life as a joke but its effect on dancefloors has been anything but and Horse House joins the select ranks of other fine western themed classics that have curiously littered the history of club music.  

Finally, to close out the EP, we have Le Petit Martien, which despite its extraterrestrial title and occasional French lyrics, maintains the western vibes, cantering along at a steady 110bpm. It’s a bit like the impossible love child of say the Bad Seeds’ Red Right Hand, Serge Gainsbourg’s Bonnie and Clyde and one of Todd Terje’s more playful moments, in other words the perfect way for this free spirited EP to ride off into the sunset.

Get ready for a dark and groovy journey of deep chuggy sounds and some heavy breaks.

Enjoy! xx
