This Never Happened is a record and event series created and curated by Lane 8.

Experience the moment. Don’t record it. This Never Happened.

This is Dada Land. Get ready to arrive beautiful and leave ugly. There are no rules, but the rules of Dada. Don't look back in the past. Always go forward. And whatever you do: don't trust us.

“Curator of emotional, energetic, and euphoric tunes, with a feel-good atmosphere”

That’s how Dustin describes himself as a DJ. Never afraid to dive deep into the soul, as music is his therapy. His goal is to create a safe space for music lovers alike, to experience the true power of music. Having grown up with the golden era of electronic dance music (Avicii, Alesso, Porter Robinson, Swedish House Mafia), emo & punk-rock bands (All Time Low, A Day To Remember, Taking Back Sunday, My Chemical Romance) energetic glitch & growl-infused melodic bass & dubstep (Seven Lions, Illenium, Skrillex, Excision)… all which became infused with his love for euphoric 2000’s trance (Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Aly & Fila, Gareth Emery), Dustin ended up with quite a wide array of musical influences. Today, this translates into his sets (Most notably, his DayDreamin’ mixes) where he picks apart and imbues together all the pieces of this music that he loves the most: wide, heavy saw stacks, beautiful synth work, emotional drops, and some catchy vocal hooks… all on top of foot-shuffling euphoric melodies

As a graduate of Scratch DJ Academy in NY, Cosmic Academy in Miami, and after a decade of DJing, Dustin is no stranger to the ups-and-downs of the music scene. Though he loves playing at nightclubs, festivals, and special events, his love for music goes beyond the spectrum of mixing tunes. As a producer and visual artist, he has found many ways to express himself. He also likes to draw and use his own artwork in conjunction with his music, just like he did on his most recent compilation – Dreams.

“Music saved my life. If I can help just one person escape from their anxiety or daily stress for a bit, then I’ll be happy! Music brings me true joy and has always been my getaway from reality. I never want anyone to experience the struggles that I have, but if they do, I want them to know there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel through my music”

With love,
DiLLZ
