This is a master list of all mixes, radio/blog guest spot, episodes of my old radioshow, live gig sets, etc which have been posted by myself, or others on Soundcloud, between 2009 until today.  not chronological or organized in any way. (Many mixes from the pre-Soundcloud era are missing, so if you have any mixes of mine NOT in this playlist, please reach out!! Also missing are about 20 hours of mixes I did in 2016-2017 under my Raconteur alias, which was on a different Soundcloud account that I would rather not pay for in order to keep them online. 

A little love note to all of you who continue to support and listen to me after all these years:

Thank you for so many years of support, you are all loved and appreciated, and your comments, messages and support help fuel my passion to continue on doing this, as a labor of love more than anything. I hope that shows in the music! - Kev

Hometown Heroes: Kev Obrien from Brooklyn [Musicis4Lovers.com]

My first house mix in quite a while, after exploring different styles in 2022 such as minimal and drum & bass. For the Selective Soul Sessions series, I am venturing back to my roots, while also keeping things fresh with contemporary styles and sounds. This mix ventures from deep house, to funky minimal, deep tech, and even some organic house vibes as well.

Featuring music from artists such as Janeret, iO (Mulen), Gerd, Lizz, Clive From Accounts, LVCA, Mihai Pol, Legit Trip, Floog, Fulltone, Amonita, Artmann, Andrey Djackonda, O.bee & Aline Brooklyn, and more.

Selective Soul Sessions (Vol. 1)

Vek Neirbo is the backward-thinking, unruly alter-ego of longtime U.S. based DJ and producer, Kev Obrien.

Recently relocated to the Mile High City of Denver, his musical focus under this new moniker has shifted to eccentric and hypnotic wee-hour sounds, mostly rooted in techy minimalist vibes. 

Some of the artists featured in this 2-hour+ jaunt are Silat Beksi, Steve O'Sullivan, Costin RP, Janeret, Nu Zau, Direkt, Sepp, Jay Tripwire, Denis Kaznacheev, and many others.

Future Stars... with Vek Neirbo

"For this mix, I channelled fuzzy memories of spending many long weekends in Brooklyn at underground afters events such as ReSolute and Blk-Market. The set moves from funky to dark and driving minimal, eventually lightening up with some fun house music toward the middle and some weird and wonky vibes toward the end." - @kev-obrien

On 4th June 2023, I had the honor of playing several extended sets with friends during my good pals' Andre & Brittany's 24-hour+ marathon rooftop party, in Bedstuy, Brooklyn NYC. We had a perfect sound setup for what was an intimate gathering filled with good vibes, great music, perfect weather, and plenty of debauchery 👾🥳🫠.

Here is one of my sets from during the early morning hours around 5am, under my Vek Neirbo alias. Trippy and groovy vibes in which I think you can hear and feel the debauchery of the party through the music. 

Features tunes from Arapu & Charlie, Sweely, Silat Beksi, Shonky, Cabanne, Ion Ludwig, Ted Amber, and many more. 

I also played a traditional Kev Obrien deep house/house set earlier in the party, which I was very happy with ( update: the house set is now available as a podcast via @electronicgroove...

Listen to that one here [only if you're into deep, dubby, feel-good house music ;)  ]

EG SPOTLIGHT.249 Kev Obrien

@kev-obrien

Vek Neirbo is the unruly alter-ego of U.S. based veteran DJ, Kev Obrien. The main musical focus for Vek Neirbo is centered around hypnotic minimalist grooves.

This particular set for the Recordmix series was recorded during an impromptu afterhours sesh in the twilight morning hours on New Year's weekend in Denver, Colorado, USA. The vibe moves from deep and dubby minimal house, to tripped-out tech and minimal, as well as some uplifting timeless classics toward the end -- which will carry you on a diverse and introspective sonic journey, for the mind, body, and soul.

Recordmix 064 - Vek Neirbo

Welcome to Volume 5 of Vek Neirbo's 'Macrodose Sessions' mix series, where the focus is on creating an intentional and experiential musical journey, with a psychedelic twist. 

This voyage launches with pure minimal house during the first hour during the "come up" stage, before progressing into "peaking"  territory during the second hour, with electrifying breaks, twisted minimal, tech house, as well as some acidic progressive elements.

The final 30 minutes descends into a gradual come-down vibe,  providing a soft and safe landing back into objective reality.

This set features music from Audio Werner, Mike Shannon, J Gabriel, Max Jacobson, Sepp, Silat Beksi, Ted Amber, Wyro, YokoO & Bob Stevkowski, Youandewan, and many others.

I hope you enjoy your trip! Set your intentions and enjoy the ride :-)

Rayzeh Podcast | 019 - Vek Neirbo

Volume 12 of my ongoing mix diary series, in which I depict the feelings I'm going through during notably emotional times in my personal life. 

Recorded May 11, 2024

This series has been ongoing for 11 years, and is always focused mostly on vocal deep house. The lyrical content and musical vibes are intentionally selected to transmute and release feelings that are much more quickly accessible to me through music, than through any other other means of introspection. 

It's a cathartic process for me to program, play, and listen back to these musical diaries. 

This chapter includes a mix of deep house, some organic and minimal house, as well as some breaks, and progressive house, with lots of edits of iconic voices such as Sade, Fleetwood Mac, Amy Winehouse, Billie Eilish, Nina Simone, etc, etc.

Every once in awhile, these mixes are done during happier days, but this wasn't one of those times. 

I did my best to bring some sunshine and optimism into the picture, but the heart feels how it feels, so this was a snapshot of a sad moment, forever caught in time. 🤷

This is my heart on my sleeve. Handle with care, and please enjoy.

DBKA134 - Vek Neirbo

Throwback to February, 2013...... It took DAYS of searching to find this mix because the original platform it was recorded for was banned by Soundcloud and lost all their content.

Heartfelt music transcends time, meaning, and relevance. My first language is music, and to know me --- is to know my music, and vice versa. Over the years, I've received messages from quite possibly 50 or more amazing souls around the world describing the way this set and the ones to follow in it's path that year, have impacted them in their own personal way. 

This is dedicated to YOU. 

It was the unofficial first mix in the Series, which was a year-long series of vocal-heavy mixes that told my story in real time during one of the most trying years of my life.  

I am glad to finally have this mix uploaded after many long nights searching for it online, so that entire series in complete on my own soundcloud. 

I love you, and want you in my soul. Yes, you. ---- thank you all for so many years of support.

Ampispazi Sound Concepts #3 : RACONTEUR

I decided to do a decade mix filled with music from the past ten years that I have lived in New York. The approaching end of summer tends to make me feel nostalgic, so here you go. 

Four hours of pure deep house spanning my collection, all released between 2007-2017, within the ten years and summers I've spent in this beautiful concrete jungle which we call New York City.

I did this mix this afternoon totally impromptu and it's really one of my favorite sets that I've done, as it includes so many of my favorites from such a wide time-span. 

**disclaimer: at some point during these 4 hours of mixing, there was one technical slip-up in mixing which I had to bail out on to keep the ball rolling. I am human. and there's no way in hell I would go back and be able to re-record an entire set that I played on the fly, in order to project some false image of perfection to the world. I can't remember where the slip up is, and it really doesn't matter (to me) -- let's be honest, laptop DJs and sync buttons have taken something away from the art of DJing as well as dancing. It used to be claps and fist bumps to hear a DJ working their way out of a bad situation to fix a mix that veered off the tracks. Nowadays? Chinstrokes and sighs abound when someone is even slightly loose on a mix. Just stating facts, because we shouldn't be ashamed of our errors, we should see them as indicators of our being human, not computer.

Includes music from Henrik  Schwarz, Jimpster, Jay Shepheard, Martin Dawson (RIP), John Tejada, Christian Prommer, Eagles & Butterflies, Niko Schwind, Erefaan Pearce, Mr. V, Manuel Tur, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Daniel Steinberg, Zepherin Saint, Justin Martin,   Dplay, Chopstick & JohnJon, Ron Basejam, Soukie & Windish, Keira, DJ Metatron and more.

In November, I'll be setting sail for Europe (Berlin) to be closer to colleagues, clients, etc. It's going to be a bittersweet move, as I love this city dearly (Brooklyn, namely), and the past year has been one of pure magic, following 2 and a half years away from music, it's been filled with surprises around every corner, and amazing friends both near and far have been gained, while some others have moved in the direction of their dreams as well.

A Decade of synchroNYCity:  2007-2017 Mix (4 hrs: Jimpster, MCDE, John Tejada, Henrik Schwarz etc)

I've been waiting years for a magical night like this, where the stars aligned perfectly and I could be able to truly play everything I could imagine and even some tunes which I have been yearning to play for YEARS but never had the right crowd, in the right place at the right time, to fit in. 

Nothing felt forced and seeing my favorite room in Brooklyn that alive and in tune with whatever I threw out there felt amazing.

many many thanks to TBA, Newhouse Grooves and the Momentum/Rite of Wednesdays crew for having me back one last time before I set sail on my nomadic voyage.... 

One love.  - Kev

Kev Obrien @ TBA Brooklyn NYC - Oct-18-2017

Continuing this series I began last summer during my travels, each of these Livin' The Vibe mixes have been compiled and recorded in different cities around the world, along my journeys while exploring the vibes and cultures of each city.

After doing mixes last year in Amsterdam, Prague, and Vienna, I figured this summer I should start off in my hometown before I ship back off across the pond again in a few weeks. 

Deep vibes here, mostly all new music, inspired stylistically by rooftop sunset vibes and the free-wheelin' summer energy that permeates around Brooklyn as the temps rise! 

Music from Akufen, Detroit Swindle, Black Loops, J Gabriel, iO Mulen, Scott Diaz, Harry Romero, and lots more. Enjoy!

This is my life in audio format.
