Dj Shaggy moved to San Francisco from New York in 1993 during the “Golden Era” of the Bay Area Rave scene. He quickly picked up the turntables & started mixing, becoming a part of San Francisco's unique set of sounds. Shaggy's been delivering those sounds for over 20 years. Never forgetting his roots in the 90’s warehouse underground and even in blending dust from the playa into every mix. There are no bounds to the genre’s he will pull from to completely fill the dance floor. Able to tailor sets to fit the environment, from packed energetic dance floors to sunrise sets; he brings big sounds from full energy to deep melodies and from high bpm to chill sounds. Constantly exploring, expanding and blending the “San Francisco Sound”, Shaggy fills the space.

Maxa is a community of friends united by threads of creativity, spirituality and the desire to do good and evolve. 

We create experiences and spaces that nurture deep human connections and help bring awareness of the gifts of service we all have to offer. 

Our beloved art-car and symbolic representation of our pilgrimage is an ode to the great blue deer, glowing like a beacon of strength, compassion, and inspiration as it dances through the desert. 

It is our guide, our compass, our shaman, lighting our way as we dance together to the rhythm of our hearts.

Love-infused musical journeys that invite free, unbridled expression and energetic transformation. Calling on music across a wide range of house and electronic genres (house, deep house, afro house, world house, medicine house, bass house, tech house, progressive house, breaks) Dane attunes to the moment, the setting and the energy of the humans in space to co-create magic. For over 10 years he has produced and DJed the Burning Man institution Tycho Sunrise.

I started throwing parties and spinning records 25 years ago. House music touches my soul and I absolutely love mixing. Playing beats with friends, dancing, and snowboarding are some of my favorite things. Thanks for listening to my mixes! Peace <3
