Sets from myself and guest DJs at my monthly Wayward event. Wayward takes place every 3rd Thursday at F8 Nightclub in San Francisco!

Wayward at F8 // 2024 Collection

Happy 2024 everyone! Here's my closing set from the first Wayward of the new year! It was an awesome event, with Stoa (@stoamusic), Shiva Tiffany (@shivatiffany), and Phleck (@djphleck) playing some killer sets before me. 

Towards the end of my set, Shiva Tiffany proposed we play a little B2B (something we had talked about for a long time), and so we went for it... and the F8 crew let us go as long as we possibly could!

Wayward at F8 // March 2024

It was a great honor and thrill to share the decks with my homie Yaz for the spooky szn edition of Wayward

Jess B2B Yaz, Wayward at F8, Oct 2024

The storm never stops, and neither do the beats.

This was my first ever DJ set at Burning Man, a mix of organic + melodic house music, recorded Wednesday, August 27th 2025 at The New Barbarians sizzle party. If you can’t tell by my face, I had no fun at all!
(featuring a short guest mix by DJ Bonk)

Gusts and Grooves

This set was recorded during one of my camp's Sausage Sizzle's on Friday, at Burning Man 2025. Over the past year, I've collected some of my favorite tracks which this set includes. It's eclectic and covers chill, moody, dancey, funky & tribal vibes. Hope you enjoy ! 

Burning Man 2025 DJ Set

This was the very first set played at Dementha for the week. We were planning to kick things off with our first-ever evening party on Sunday to celebrate Dementha’s 20th anniversary, but the rain had other plans. So my Monday afternoon set ended up being the opener.

I wanted to start things off with a bang — high energy, high tempo, positive vibes to get the floor moving and set the stage for the week ahead. This set gave me the chance to stretch a little and play tracks I don’t usually get to in club sets: faster cuts, bits of UK garage, dubstep influences — all mixed in with the house and techno I love. Burning Man (and Dementha) gives you the freedom to experiment and push the edges, and I had a lot of fun leaning into that.

It felt like a great way to launch into the week. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did playing it.

Much love <3

Yaz has played all over San Francisco at all the major venues, including Public Works, Mighty / The Great Northern, Monarch, Midway, and Halcyon. He was a resident DJ at the venerated Wish Lounge for 5+ years, running his monthly Wayward party right up until the pandemic caused Wish to close.
