Sometimes you realize that it's burn day and you have WAY too much leftover meat in various coolers at somewhat questionable temperatures. So you pull the grill out to the bar, and fire her up. Other campmates bring more food, you get out the megaphone and feed the neighborhood all day. If you're lucky, your favorite dj from home (and role model camp creator)will have camped with you that year and magically have 12 hours of songs with words on them AND be in the mood to not leave the decks all day. History will be made and a favorite tradition formed. Minds blown, songs sung at the top of many lungs, and much dust kicked up by many boots.

Years later you'll want to start a soundcloud page for camp, and maybe drag your feet for a while, but along will come a mix, slaved away on throughout a pandemic, by the very dj that set the tone for that magical experience. Part of a series representing our remergence from said pandemic, and a certain psychedelic therapy that feels like a romp around the playa. So you’ll start the soundcloud and just like the Annual Impromptu Questionable Meat Bonanza, a new platform for us to express ourselves will be created under the guidance of the same dj who’s already had such an indelible impact on our culture. 

We're thrilled to have @djspaceotter be the first mix we post here, and look forward to sharing more mixes from our other crazy talented camp mates, and friends!

Finally got my recording back from LIB and I'm immediately transported back to the rollercoaster of emotions I experienced that weekend. 

Between the heat, dust and being around tens of thousands of people after going through a pandemic, it's safe to say I was a little rusty at festivaling. On top of it, my legs felt like floppy noodles from how anxious I was to play the prime set time Friday night at the Junkyard. This is something I experience often before gigs, the sweats, self deprecating internal thoughts, imposter syndrome. I questioned if I belonged here or if I earned it. Then I mixed in and immediately felt at home. I thought to myself "Bitch you know what you're doing" and went on to play one of those "highlights of my career" sets for me personally. 

The rest of the night and weekend was a breeze, and the magic of LIB was amplified. I was able to see the thousands of smiling faces in front of me, the above and beyond details The Do Lab had added and updated, and realized this was so many people's first festival back and they could not be happier about it. I could not be happier about it. 

I hope that you enjoy it and that you're happy too. 

P.S. it's just in time to secure your tickets for 2023. Get your tickets on Thursday, November 17th when they go live!

Never Sleep Again x Groovewell Presents:
Kamp Around and Find out

I met the Groovewell boys 10 years ago through, you guessed it, the club. We became fast friends, myself just starting out as a young dj coming up through a sober 6am party called Morning Gloryville. Jake, Chris, Victor and Angel were loyal attendees as we discovered both ourselves and San Francisco, figuring out where we belonged so to speak. Soon enough we started playing parties together and lifting each other up wherever we could. I always exclaimed my proud mamma status as they gained popularity and their sound evolved. 

Skip forward to June 17th where I was featured in their limited block at their own party baby, Kamp Around and Find Out, where I found myself only wanting to make THEM proud and not the other way around.

Love you boys, and love you Never Sleep Again. I certainly kamped around and found out but hope I made you proud.

Love,
Torro

PS. This is a re-record of the actual set that was played, not a live set due to a technical mishap. ♥️

One night at Forest Creek for Reflect's Afterglow Festival (October 11-13, 2024) in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State. Thanks to Trent/Citrus Age, Erika/Copeland, Jared/Sloth, Samadhi Flow, and the whole Reflect crew for having me. Big thanks to Rave Daddy Otter Dan for taking such good care of me. And to everyone who showed especially Courtney, Todd, Scott and the DBR crew, my loves Black Velveteen & Lexi, Susan for being a great age-appropriate old school rave buddy, and so many people for grooves and great conversations. And a very special thanks to Jen Davidowitz for inspiring me to recreate this set.

Acid Baths: Live @ Steamworks 10-26-24

With a heavy heart for my friends affected by fires in Los Angeles this week, I release my set from just a week ago when we started the year with hope and optimism at Subtract and Moon Kitty's super fun shindig to open 2025.  

First of all, big thanks to Treavor and Anton for having me.  It was so, so fun to play this party.  I knew close to half of the people there, had many great conversations and much fun dancing after.  Moontribe DJs are no joke!  So much talent :). Sarkis was great too!  I was happy with my set and am excited to share it.

I lived in various parts of LA for 36 of the 38 years between 1980 and 2018. It is not the world's most beautiful city by any means, but I always tell my friends not from there how special and thriving the underground music scene has always been in LA.  It's a city where you have to know someone to have a good time I think -  one of the least digestible cities as a tourist.

But all it takes, or ever took, is to experience one good LA underground event and a whole world opens up to you.  If you are bored in LA, it's no fault of the music scene.  

For me this one event was 1995's Big Wig Thumper at what was then called the Orange Showgrounds.  Though technically my 3rd rave, the other two were in 1991 when I was just about to graduate high school, and appreciated it but wasn't really ready for it.  Let's just say I hadn't found my dancing shoes yet.  But in 95, I was ready and I never looked back.  I've thrown a hundred parties and DJed hundreds in LA since.  

This is a hard mix description to write because my favorite US city is in flames.  Many of my friends have lost their homes, and several venues I've hosted Tropical at have been destroyed.  It feels inappropriate to promote events there with the fires raging, and I've struggled to even post this mix.

But... it is music.  And music can only help.  

I am here to help in other ways too!  I'm not in LA, but super connected so reach out if you need help.  Also have space in my home in Oregon for friends who want to get away to clean air for a bit.

Hoping for safety for my friends, squashing of fires asap, and then hopefully a hard look at how prepared we are for fires like this, and how we can improve on that <3

Vinyl Dj's will know that perusing your collection, playing all the tracks you normally ignore, can feel like you just scored a bunch of free music. I was playing that game with some older house records, and decided to hit record. Hope you enjoy!

Track: Night Rider (Original Mix)
Release: Sprout Achievements Vol. 01
Artist: GEØVHÄN
Record Label: Sprout
Release Date: 25th April 2025
Buy: https://www.beatport.com/release/sprout-achievements-vol-01-compiled-by-andre-moret/5023801

We're buzzing to premiere 'Night Rider' by GEØVHÄN – a standout moment from the Sprout Achievements Volume One compilation.

Compiled by Brazilian artist André Moret, the collection shines a light on some of the most exciting yet overlooked names in the melodic and progressive scene. It’s not your typical DJ mix – think more like a playlist with purpose. Twelve exclusive tracks, each carefully picked for their musicality, groove and potential to become future favourites.

GEØVHÄN’s contribution, 'Night Rider', hits a sweet spot.

It’s driving and atmospheric – a slow build into hypnotic pads, tight percussive work, and a weighty groove that doesn’t let go. The kind of track that sneaks up on you in the middle of a set and shifts the energy without needing to go full throttle. It’s restrained but confident.

There's an understated elegance to the production. Synths swell in and out, locking in with a pulsing bassline that brings momentum without overpowering. It feels cinematic, but still ready for the dancefloor. If you're into the sound of artists like Guy J or Kamilo Sanclementé, this one will land right in your zone.

The wider Sprout Achievements Vol 01 compilation also features cuts from ZAC, Dabeet, Kamilo Sanclementé and other underground talents. Moret curates it with a DJ’s ear and a deep respect for the progressive scene – especially the Brazilian and South American wave of artists making serious noise internationally.

So, if you’re on the hunt for new weapons, or just want to dive into something deep, emotive and expertly crafted, 'Night Rider' is your entry point.
