Such a killer set my friend!!! This will be on repeat for awhile

Re-hashed my set from my guest spot at Versions in Calgary, AB on June 21, 2022 - the first day of summer! One of my absolute favorite gigs of the year, I made the trip out with my rave brother Mark Grimace who played before me and we had the best time! The vibes were magical that evening and I felt 100% in the zone playing an unplanned set purely from the heart, and without compromise. 

Versions is such a special time and it was lovely to play there IRL after doing previous guest sets on their Twitch streams! 

BIG love to Esette, Danger Bay, Xhale Brewing, and Broken City for hosting such a fantastic weekly event every summer. I love Versions and I love Calgary! Follow Versions on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/versionsyyc

Our first guest recording in our new home! Shaun was on our list to play well before the move so we were glad to get him in right away. He brought the vibes with fantastic deep, minimal house vibes that kept the crowd going all night!

Shaun Whitcher: Live at Back of the House March 9th, 2023

Live set from the streets of San Francisco on Jan 1 2023, my favorite Block Party of the year. Special thanks to The Space Cowboys and The Great Northern for putting on such an epic event! Starts out with some slappin' breaks and eases into some deep groovy bass heavy tech house.

This little heater was a blast to play for the Laketown Shakedown.  Techno, House, Garage, Tech House.  It was fun as hell.  Some old favourites and some brand new hotness.  Dig in!

Kelly Zahn - Live at Nuit Blanche 2023

The year is almost over and I haven't yet uploaded a set from my ongoing residency at the legendary Gorg-O-Mish afterhours club in Vancouver, Canada. This excerpt recorded in November should do the trick. I hope you enjoy the ride and I hope to see you on the dance-floor soon! 

Peace, RF
