Opening for Garza at the Independent SF

After a three year fire and pandemic hiatus, the FnF Summer Campout was back with a bang. =) So it seemed only appropriate to bring some bangin techno. There's a bunch of new stuff and a few of my all-time favs.  Recorded live on that Saturday night with all my favorite people! Turn it up and rock out!

This week's RIPEcast is from Space Cowboy's own DJ Deckard. Here's what he has to say for himself:

"Breakfast of Champions is consistently my favorite party of the year both to DJ and attend. I opened the outdoor main stage at 9am this year and for all intents and purposes got to play the sunrise set I had been desiring to play but never got the chance at Burning Man earlier in the year. I took it as an opportunity and honor to be able to set the tone for the morning and get the party off on the right foot. I loved getting to play more of a house oriented set with vocals and a block party feel towards the end of the set. I had a blast playing and hope it shows through in the set."

Bio:
Deckard began DJing in Seattle in 2000 and soon began playing gigs up and down the west coast. Upon moving to San Francisco in 2005 he fell in love with the electronic music scene which is so unique to the Bay Area. You can find him spinning at San Francisco institutions such as Mighty, Shine, Supper Club, Wish and the End Up. Deckard capped off a successful 2009 by joining up with the Space Cowboys Burning Man camp. Depending on the crowd, venue and time of day you might find him spinning downtempo lounge, funky big beat, tech house, electro or breaks.

DJ Bamboom Leyenda Sunday Sunrise 2018

I wanted to take this moment and thank a few individuals who make Genius•Loci FEST so darn special. It takes a village, as they say, so I'd like to acknowledge those who contributed in any way shape or form to make Genius•Loci FEST such a memorable experience.

Starting off with the people behind the scenes, who helped load in the boxtrucks with some heavy a$$ equipment, those who donated cushions, fabrics, transported bamboo poles and laser cut stages, bringing the sweet BOOM sound systems, to those that volunteered on site, with their A-Game, "born for this" attitudes, sharing mad skills. Teamwork truly makes the dream work so I want to thank you for checking people in at the gate, setting opening intentions, providing words of advice & encouragement, serving delicious breakfast burritos and acai bowls, sharing epic visual experiences, playing incredible music sets, leading invigorating yoga classes, teaching transformational workshops at the Sanctuary, painting art murals or creating beautiful installations. Every passing year feels wonderful to see how hard work pays off with growth. Thank you Henry Pope for steering the ship in a successful direction, proving once again, how if we work together as a collective community, we can accomplish anything.

Thank you to those who shared and soaked in the experience. Its an honor to play a role, big or small in supporting the vision. It is with all of you in mind that I share this music contribution.

Funky, sexy, booty-shaking set from the July 2020 Bubbles & Bass in Cyber Space Live stream!

Bubbles & Bass in Cyber Space July 19th 2020

    Lake Tahoe……….specifically South Lake Tahoe in the summer of 1998 was an amazing time for house music and ALL my friends were into it……so I started collecting hip-hop records, named myself DJ sWiTcH and taught myself how to scratch and mix ANY place I could find a pair of technics. When I finally got a set of my own decks I melted most of my record collection in an unfortunate (yes I cried) ultra violet experiment (the sun in the back of my girlfriends Camaro). I gave in to that wonderful 4 on the floor that kept calling to me and fell in love with Deep House. 

     Just a smidgen of copyright infringement after a record release prompted me to use my real name “micah" and the first initial of my middle name “jason” to form (drumroll please) micah j. For the last 19 years I’ve been collecting deep house, deep and dirty breaks and, in most recent years, an insane amount of ghetto funk, keeping me diverse and ready to rock any festival, nightclub, outdoor or pool party any a you mo fo’s can throw at me (yes that is a dare).

     I could give you a list of my crowning achievements, big acts I’ve opened for, countries I’ve played in, celebrities I’ve f@&%ed……….BUT THAT SHITS BORING. All I’m gonna say is if your partying on my dance floor, get ready for a chunk of dirt sprinkled with funk, making every set a new and exciting experience for the DJ and the dance floor……..engage
