This week on the RIPEcast Space Cowboy resident rrrrus in March live at the Rhythm Society quarterly. 

From the man himself “Back in 1998 rrrus nervously took the decks for the first time ever in front of a crowd in a small church in SF's mission district for one of the first Rhythm Society events.  26 years, a bunch of ANDCs, Burning Mans, Breakfasts of Champions, campouts, and a few naps later rrrus is back to give his home spiritual community a groovy bumping hug.  Let's get busy.”

Hi Fam Jam!

What a delightful weekend we had closing out the near-end of summer 2024. This was my first Fam Jam and the event's 3rd anniversary. Located in the serene Santa Cruz mountains near the beautiful coast of California, USA, approximately 200 people gathered for a weekend of delicious BBQ (thanks Sharkbite!), music, and friendly faces, new and old! It was such a pleasure to be selected to perform and be present at this event. 

This is the live recording from my set on Saturday night from 10-11pm. Extra special thanks to Solkist, Denver Drake, Lowdecka & the rest of the Santa Cruz DJ Sessions crew & friends for coordinating such an intimate and lovely campout for us all to enjoy.

PS: Extra thanks to Maculate for performing his creative VJing during my set - the dancing pigeons were a huge hit throughout the weekend so I thought it only appropriate they don the artwork of my DJ mix (Photo credit to B. Miller Productions).

Thanks for listening & please enjoy!

DJ Denise - Live At Fam Jam 2024

Hey all! This was my third year attending unSCruz and it's fast becoming one of my favorite campouts! This is the live recording from my home camp of Heavy Petting Zoo which was co-hosted by Entheos and Sound Garden. My time slot was Saturday from 6-7pm. I dug into the archives for this set but also tested out a few new originals. Please enjoy & thanks for listening!

Track list coming soon...

DJ DENISE - Live at unSCruz 2025: HPZ/Entheos/Sound Garden

Recorded from the live mix on the mainstage at UnScruz, this set is a celebration of feminine energy, creativity, and resilience — every track is produced or voiced by a woman or femme-identifying artist. From deep grooves to bad ass vocals, this mix is a love letter to the force of women in music.
