Moontribe June 2024, Sunrise Set
31 Year Anniversary.

Recorded live, in the California desert / sierra mountains.
With a night of Intense but dance floor friendly sets, a little sunrise chill reset for the day + a dash of organic house and breaks.
Thank you to everyone that joined the gathering this year.  The music was on point from start to finish.

Kepi @ Moontribe 31 Year Anniversary, Sunrise Set

As a long time lover of dance music culture, influenced by a wide range of music throughout his youth and inspired by the DJs and happenings of the early 90s California rave scene, Chadwick began his journey as a DJ in 1993.

Over the years of playing events large and small including Moontribe, Terrakroma, Psytribe, Electric Daisy Carnival, Serenity Gathering, and Photosynthesis, he has developed a diverse musical palette ranging in various styles of techno, progressive, trance, psytrance, psytech, breakbeats, house and electronica. While having a deep love for underground club and warehouse dancefloors, Chadwick feels most at home playing outdoors under the open sky. Day or night, indoors or out, his sets will take you to a place of heart thumping, foot stomping, psychedelic bliss.

Chadwick is a resident DJ and organizing volunteer with Southern California’s Moontribe Collective, who have been gathering under the full moon in the Mojave Desert since 1993.

❤️ Live In Love ❤️
