Velourian - Our Work Is Never Over

Extended set with Brass Tax and Heavy Petting Zoo at Breakfast of Champions,  2023.

JustWill & Brass Tax Breakfast of Champions set 2023

Sometimes everything comes together in one perfect moment: the vibe is right, the crowd is lit, and you're ready for anything. This mix is a tribute to one of those moments for me. 
I was fortunate enough to attend unSCruz this year (Santa Cruz's official regional burn) and even moreso to have been invited to spin at multiple events. My favorite, though, was my set at @ali-bar-bar on Friday night of the event. They had been trying to get me to come play for years, and the stars finally aligned for me to make it happen. I arrived to a packed and jumping dancefloor under the spell of the talented Miss (soon to be Mrs.!) @hijinxtrax, and needed to keep the vibe high and tight. I *LOVE* getting to play all-out, no-holds-barred energetic tracks for the pure dopamine surge it gives me, but there's a time and a place for those, and that's not always the case. Thankfully, Ali Bar-Bar has a fun "no headliners!" policy that encourages DJs to go hard anytime. I took the bait.

What happened next was peak-moment magic for me. Sadly, I didn't record the set, but I had a tracklist, and this is a studio do-over for your own personal get-down sessions. As Stefan would say with a /mostly/ straight face, "This high-energy mix has EVERYything. Funky tech house, grimy bass house, remixes, bootlegs, familiar hooks, and even a Linkin Park track that slaps (thanks to a kickass re-rub by Malaa)." 

I'm dedicating this track to new friends Marco and Stephanie, the sweetest new newlyweds that welcomed me with open arms into their amazing bar and DJ booth. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did (re)playing it!

As always, I couldn't do what I do without the amazing efforts of so many talented producers from literally all over the world. Shout out to you all and love from my little corner of the planet here on the Big Island!

What can I say about FnF that hasn't already been said? It's always an honor to be selected to play at these truly special events, and as such I always prepare a very thoughtfully curated set based on which stage I'm playing at and where my time slot is located in the day/night. I never plan my sets from start to finish, but I do spend quite a bit of time prior to the event finding new music and creating several small playlists of music I think I may want to play based on genre. 

This year, my slot was Friday night, June 2, 2023 from 11:15pm to 12:30am right before kem, one of my long-time DJ pals & FnF OG. For my slot, I wanted to set up kem nicely by warming up the dance floor with some tech house and then ramped up the energy throughout my set with some jackin' house & bass house.

Huge thanks to Ethan, the Music Committee, the entire FnF family and Radiant Atmospheres for always creating an exquisite experience that is truly unmatched in love, vibes and production. 

Thanks for listening!
