The Upload

With a heavy heart for my friends affected by fires in Los Angeles this week, I release my set from just a week ago when we started the year with hope and optimism at Subtract and Moon Kitty's super fun shindig to open 2025.  

First of all, big thanks to Treavor and Anton for having me.  It was so, so fun to play this party.  I knew close to half of the people there, had many great conversations and much fun dancing after.  Moontribe DJs are no joke!  So much talent :). Sarkis was great too!  I was happy with my set and am excited to share it.

I lived in various parts of LA for 36 of the 38 years between 1980 and 2018. It is not the world's most beautiful city by any means, but I always tell my friends not from there how special and thriving the underground music scene has always been in LA.  It's a city where you have to know someone to have a good time I think -  one of the least digestible cities as a tourist.

But all it takes, or ever took, is to experience one good LA underground event and a whole world opens up to you.  If you are bored in LA, it's no fault of the music scene.  

For me this one event was 1995's Big Wig Thumper at what was then called the Orange Showgrounds.  Though technically my 3rd rave, the other two were in 1991 when I was just about to graduate high school, and appreciated it but wasn't really ready for it.  Let's just say I hadn't found my dancing shoes yet.  But in 95, I was ready and I never looked back.  I've thrown a hundred parties and DJed hundreds in LA since.  

This is a hard mix description to write because my favorite US city is in flames.  Many of my friends have lost their homes, and several venues I've hosted Tropical at have been destroyed.  It feels inappropriate to promote events there with the fires raging, and I've struggled to even post this mix.

But... it is music.  And music can only help.  

I am here to help in other ways too!  I'm not in LA, but super connected so reach out if you need help.  Also have space in my home in Oregon for friends who want to get away to clean air for a bit.

Hoping for safety for my friends, squashing of fires asap, and then hopefully a hard look at how prepared we are for fires like this, and how we can improve on that <3

Here's my closing set from Taniwha's Den 2025. 
Massive thanks to Grunter, Leon and all the crew who worked tirelessly to bring together yet another amazing festival. Big love to the Den Faithful for turning out to my set after a long weekend of dancing under the canopy. Thanks to Dannyboy for capturing the recording and to my Den family for their unwaivering support. 

Much Love. Hape.

For those of you who prefer their drum and bass to be chilled, smooth and full of jazzy grooves.

There are just a couple of parties that I play enough times to make a completely specific set for each time, and make it my absolute best.

One is Lightning in a Bottle, which I'm not a resident of but have played 7 of the last 8 fests.

I've prepared for many different time slots at LIB, always looking at this large and spectacular festival as one where people primarily want to dance and have fun.

So I ramp up my funk and vocals (usually playful but i did have one protest lyric in this year's - you can't miss it).  

I lean on the uplifting side, spend a lot of time choosing music and organizing a playlist so i can play appropriately for my time slot and come back thinking it was one of the best sets I've ever played.  

Something that was different for me this year is I took a year and a half off from buying new music prior to LIB in order to reporganize my collection, which now spans 30 years.

Sometimes it's better to understand better what you already have before adding to a massive music collection.

But I never intended my break to be that long!  It just kept going.  And I had a couple of hard drive farts in the middle which didn't help.  

But anyway,  I started buying music again about two months ahead of LIB because I wanted to play an all new music set,  and I also wanted to to  take the time to understand the new music very well.

The problem with playing all new music at a gig is that I don't always take the time to understand it well enough to know if it's as good as the music I already have.  It's fun because it's new... but is it really adding something?

So this time I really took the time to select tracks - I was picky AF!  
This time I spent a lot of time also to play with my tracks, mix them in different ways and really try to only include tracks that were blowing my mind, so that I could give that to the dance floor.

Also spent a lot of time on tagging producers in this description - hope it helps you to discover some great new artists and music!

Wow! Words can't even come close to expressing the amazing energy and mind blowing awesomeness that was on full display the whole weekend through. I am continually humbled by the power of sound and light and human creativity to come together thru community and inspire us to move, to play, to share and to create such magical moments of pure, blissed out, tribal dance. Much love and gratitude to all!

I know you have experienced this, but for those who haven’t take a deep breath in and close your eyes, immerse yourself on a dance-floor that has one simple policy…freedom.  Butterz musical expression provides a spiritual pathway that enriches your soul and creates a beautiful shared experience, something we all have seen evolve over the past 20yrs.  

This dedicated father figure has plenty more wisdom & creativity to share as the launch of imprints, Melt & Buttervault keeps us glued for the next installation/music event as he gives back supporting local venues.

Once the dust settles, practice the above mentioned and join the journey with Butterz at 680 Ann St, a second home to most for the past 7yrs.

For the next hour he pays homage to some old favourites opening the vault up with prog/deep tech with some minimal notes but still something to shake to as usual.

We broadcast this ‘Mid Week Treat’ ft. @butterzmusic

Be safe & Happy HUMP Day x
