First time in 3 years back behind the decks at The Taniwha's Den. Massive love to everyone that danced up a storm to my set!! 
I played at 10pm on the Sunday and loved every minute of it, that system was an absolute treat to play on.

Didn't record on the night so have reconstructed my set.

It went a lil something like this...

The Taniwha's Den 2023 [Reconstructed]

I miss this time of year when we'd all gather, take off our shoes and dig our toes into the dirt
When we'd shake off the city for a few days and disconnect;
Reconnect with friends
And, then, connect with everyone
Time wasn't measured in minutes or hours, but magical moments of mayhem and mischief
The music wasn't in such a rush, none of us were.
This music speaks to that time - speaks to that energy
Over 2 hours of melodies and rhythms and bass lines that, when creating this set, transported me to that dusty dance floor of smiles. 
One of my favourite places on earth.
enjoy

Merging 011 with Luke Bartolo

"Resilient Echoes: A Journey Through Shadows and Light" is a DJ mix/soundscape that encapsulates the emotional rollercoaster of overcoming grief and the profound process of reflecting on life.

This mix serves as a poignant expression of the raw emotions experienced during times of loss and the subsequent journey towards healing and self-discovery. I put it together to serve as a therapeutic medium. It acts as a guiding light, encouraging introspection, self-reflection, and ultimately, the discovery of inner strength and resilience. It serves as a reminder that even amidst the darkest moments, there is always a glimmer of hope and the potential for growth.

This mix is the result of my journey overcoming the loss of my brother last June. I started making it in times of darkness, as a means to express my emotions, and it grew over time into its current form. I never made it with the intention of anyone else hearing it, but somehow felt compelled to let others do so now.

As a DJ this is a how I tell a story, of loss and life, told the way I feel comfortable telling.

This is best experienced being present, in a quiet place, with headphones

Resilient Echoes: A Journey Through Shadows and Light

I have decided every 6th Merging will be a drum and bass mix. So a fun fact out of all the styles I play all of my drum and bass mixes are the highest played, even my older ones still get regular plays. So I gotta keep you all happy. Funny thing is I would never call myself a drum and bass dj too, I just enjoy playing it every now and then for the challenge because it really does keep me on my toes and test my skills. This mix is a little bit different to the style and structure of my other dnb sets, hope you like it.... oh and this must be played loud for maximum enjoyment.

Simon Murphy - Live @ Esoteric Festival 2024 - Chill Island
Sunday 10th March 2024 2:30-4:00pm

Esoteric Festival is a truly magical event. I love making the annual pilgrimage knowing that I will have the chance to reconnect with friends, make new connections, and bask in the incredibly crafted festival space with an inspiring soundtrack. 

This is the live recording of my set at Chill Island on a sunny Sunday afternoon and takes a slightly different path than my previous chill sets. 

In addition to a whole stack of downtempo electronica, this year I’ve listened to a bunch of garage, drum & bass, and a huge amount of new artists releasing rave influenced tunes across genres. These diverse sounds have inspired and found their way into my chill set this year and I’m stoked with the result.

This set moves through downtempo and broken beats with some garage and rave influences, offset by some dreamy ambient and spoken word. Enjoy the journey through sounds both old and new…
