Diode 2023 (Extended)

Recorded live at Observe Los Angeles, November 25, 2023

Live @ Observe: Los Angeles

Dustin Zahn x Truncate Live @ Observe Los Angeles (11/25/23)

The original idea was to post this around my birthday in March, after getting about halfway through I realized March wouldn't happen because... well, I was only about halfway through. I parked it to focus on other things. Then came incredibly sad news about friend and Space Cowboy, Danny. He was always a fan of the BBQ sets, and frequently asked when I'd get to another. Yesterday was Danny's birthday, so I carved out time and finished it up. Not perfect, but long af, and hopefully suitable for BBQing. RIP Danny, hope he bumps this at the big grill in the sky. 

XO, 8b

Journey Before Destination

Hello friends! Here’s my set from the 2025 Bottlerock roller rink — a cheeky, slightly shameful ride through bouncy remixes, edits, and mashups. Think of it as one big, extended Rick Roll: full of guilty pleasures, surprise flips, and rollerskating-ready controlled chaos. I had an absolute blast playing, and I can officially check “DJ a roller rink” off the bucket list.

Big love to the legends at HUSHconcerts and the Lululemon brand team for creating such a stunning activation! 

xo, 8b

8ball - Bottlerock 2025 - Roller Rink Rick Roll

ADMN - Movement 2025 - Detroit Stage - 7-8 PM

Backyard set I did for my friend's destination party. I played a lot with salsa remixes and songs that felt important to me and my culture. I also experimented with playing some baile funk.

Destination Party 2025 - Live

This week on the RIPEcast we have Space Cowboy resident DJ rrrus with his recording live from Breakfast of Champions. Recorded at Great Northern January 1, 2025. 

From rrrus "I am here to light your fuse and warm your shoes.  Bump funk up your trunk and slam jam like a clam.  Damn, I’m hungry.  Let’s go to Breakfast of Champions and feast like beasts on bass so thick it sticks like a brick. Shake it!"

A live recording of my set from my home camp, DIODE, at Firefly 2025.  It's a 1-hour mix of feel-good house music from right after the effigy burned.

DJ Damien Paul - Live at DIODE 2025

My 4th time at Burning Man spent with my soul family at camp Elementum. We transcended as a collective during our annual Inferno Party on the playa. Thank you to everyone who trusted me with taking you on a journey through time and space. You mean the world to me.
