DJ / Live Mixes

3 hour set in the middle of the day at one of my favorite events. Lots of beautiful people on the dance floor, crazy desert winds at times, great temperature. So grateful for times like these!

Luke Mandala At Moontribe April 2022

Here is my set from EuDream's 2022 summer campout called EuJuice. My friends and I produced that event, very much immersed in nature in the woods and stars. 

It's got some unreleased tracks (including track one which I'm about to find a label for), half drum and bass and the rest is multi genre stuff. 

Thank you to everyone who was a part of that event, my community is my heart and it keeps it beating well... deep baselines included <3

Luke Mandala / Mandala Affect @ EuDream Campout 2022

Got at least a few unreleased tracks of mine in here and a couple that was the first time I ever played them... so fun! Upcoming releases with Dreaming Awake, Alien Breakdance, Uniting Souls, Activated, etc. 

I recorded the room as well so the sounds of the crowd hootin' and hollarin' are integrated into the set. 

This is an event we threw at The Big Dirty in Eugene. We are super grateful that it turned out to exceed our expectations <3 It had plenty of April Fool's day mischief as well!

LUKE MANDALA Live @ Mischief @ The Big Dirty ~ April Fool's Day

3:30pm, outdoors in a super gorgeous desert with a big view of snow capped mountains. I was under the impression that the following act was going to be a downtempo act, so I planned a set accordingly. Then during my set I found out that it wasn't going to be a chill out set after me, so I picked much of this on the fly.  

Here’s my Moontribe story and quite how much of an impact MT has had on my life, music, other collectives I’m involved with, sound systems, etc. Happy 30 year anniversary to the legendary moontribe family!

From ‘98 to about ‘09 I basically didn’t know anyone who played and made music like me… some styles of melodic/psychedelic/deep/adventurous and experimental music. Some people call it weird but to me it’s not weird. It’s home, adventure, expanding, ever-changing, creative and bliss. Before I found out about Moontribe, I basically planned on being a Northwest weirdo in my adventures with this sound.

I heard of the mystical, highly respected and “secret” Moontribe for years but didn’t ever get a chance to go…then found some MT mixes which became favorites as I related so much. Treavor Moontribe/Treavor Moontribe started releasing some of my music and asked me to come play a MT reunion.

It felt like I found my long lost soul family. MT has been one of my biggest inspirations for music, etc. because of the open minded musical perspective at the gatherings, feedback I get from Moontribers in person and online, playing certain tracks I make that only work at MT, sustainable event production, locations interacting with nature, the high potentials of happiness from community/security/health, sound system capability, I could go on and on… I can’t thank the MT family enough for the massive amount of happiness and inspiration it has spread to so many people!!! 🙏🏻
Here’s a video of my track “Cocoon Bliss” at 30 year reunion. It’s coming out on Treavor’s label Alien Breakdance.

Downtempo House is the genre that I feel most at home DJing and the alignment was certainly felt during this live recording for my friends YouTube project "HouseGuest Radio."

This set will be available to watch on YouTube in a few weeks.

Live at Moontribe FMG - November 2023 (indie dance & nu-disco)

Happy to share this 12-2am set with you guys from one of the funnest events I've played in a while. They did a great job with this event and it fully popped off...as you can hear from the crowd (we recorded the crowd as well). 

I was playing some wind instruments and a drum pad and I'm finally getting a mix out that was recorded with a show with those instruments included. 

All the love to the Esthetic Evolution fam, treefort fest, and to you for the support!

Live @ MOONTRIBE MARCH 2024 - CLOSING SET (Tracklist included)

Playing my first festival set at "Texas Eclipse 2024" was pure magic. Surrounded by friends, the energy was electric. The crowd's vibe was infectious, and I felt like I was living a dream. It was a moment I'll cherish forever, sharing the stage with my closest pals. The atmosphere was surreal, and the support from the crowd was overwhelming. It was more than just a performance; it was a milestone, a memory that'll stay with me forever.

I was so stoked to be welcomed back to one of my favourite festivals in Australia - Esoteric. An incredibly hot festival - most days getting very close to the 40C degree mark, it was tough going but the community came together and brought an incredible festival experience for us all to share.

This set is one of the most complex ones I've attempted spanning a cool 69 tracks (nice) - it starts with an emphasis towards melody and feeling, increasingly moving up in intensity and along a journey across the hour and a half. I'm really proud of this one and I hope you enjoy what was an incredibly fun set to play on the day. 

A huge thankyou to the Esoteric festival organisers and the incredible Snakepit crew who had me down once again to grace their stage. What an awesome crew doing incredible things for Bass music in Australia.
