6AM Guest Mix: RJ Pickens

Coming off the heels of a very eventful holiday season and (seemingly never-ending) January winter, we wanted to present you with a mix of music that will warm your spirits and speakers.  The Vested ORIGINS NYE 2014 event went over in a big way with all those in attendance, with superb DJ sets from all participating DJs, representing some of the best local talent that Chicago has to offer.  We also had the pleasure of being rocked by headliner - Anthony Attalla - for an extended 3 hour set that took us all the way to 4am in proper fashion.

This set that we present to you here is a collaborative effort from RJ Pickens and Hummingbird.  Unfortunately, this is not a live recording, as a room opening delay shortened the set length of our opening set before Anthony Attalla, and a faulty recording made the majority of the audio captured unusable.  However, as those of you in attendance can attest:  this set is heavily representative of what we played that night, and we added a little bit extra in a few departments, as this is a little closer to what we intended to play for everyone that night.

NYE is a celebratory event with spirits and happiness running high, and we wanted to have this set be a reflection of that, as we featured many of our favorite tracks of the year, and some additional surprises fused-in in making what we strongly believe to be a feel-good mix for all the right reasons.  Yes, it's about a month past due, but we really do think that this one was worth waiting for.  Please feel free to "favorite", share, like, post, download, and spread the good word about this little project, as we're very happy to present it to you here.

RJ Pickens B2B Hummingbird - Origins NYE 2014

Miami & WMC.  Enough said.  No introduction needed there...

I am really stoked about what I cooked-up for the occasion.
This year, I put a forward-thinking mix together that covers a nice spectrum of sounds and takes a proverbial "journey" in an action-packed 80minutes; it achieves a nice balance of "melodic yet underground".  Goes from deeper, groovey sounds - suitable for earlier hours - and goes into some tech, tech house, house and progressive that evolves into a more peak hour vibe.  Ends with dope little deeper tune that feels like a "lights up" end-of-the-night kind of track, and also features something original and forthcoming from myself in the mix with some truly tremendous records by artists' work who is second to none.  Should serve as a nice little snapshot of all the different vibes that I like to pick from, depending on what the setting calls for.

All in all, really pleased with the outcome of this.  If you're feeling this, please be sure to "Favorite", "Like", Share, Re-Post, or all of the above.  Thank you in advance --

Let's jump right in.

Kora @ Ibiza Sonica Radio Mix [When We Dip Show]

So many good vibes at Spybar this night for this Vested showcase.  Thank you to all of you who came out in strong numbers, despite the torrential downpour of rain we had that evening.  Was truly a pleasure to both prime the decks for a friend and artist who's work I have so much respect for -- Eelke Kleijn -- and also to take over the controls after a longtime good friend and Chicago musical colleague -- Mártell!  Amazing jams played all night from start to finish, and was a perfect example of what makes me truly happy to do what I do.  I genuinely appreciate the continued support from all of you who come to these events, and from the venues I work with in making these special nights happen.  Press play, turn it up loud, and enjoy a portion of this night again.  More sets from this night to come soon, too...  :)

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a like / favorite / repost / share / comment, or all of the above if you're feeling ambitious!

RJ Pickens - Live At Spybar CHI - 21JUL2017 - Supporting Set For Eelke Kleijn

This is the third time I've had the honor of supporting the esteemed Eric Prydz on an event lineup, and it was a perfect musical storm of an evening:  Sold-out club event, lots of hype and momentum from his festival set with Deadmau5 earlier that evening, and a crowd that really wanted to be there.  In fact, this show sold-out so quickly that I didn't even get to announce it before the online tickets all got snatched-up!  

In any case, this was one of those nights where things just fired on all cylinders for me, with selections, mixing, and progressions falling beautifully into place.  I didn't know exactly what I was going to play ( and this set could have gone in a number of directions), but I picked out much more amazing music than I'd actually need (ranging from newer stuff to tracks that have been tried-and-true to me over time), and I tried to do my best to just let go of expectations and just play what felt right to play at that moment, regardless of the track's age.  A good track is exactly that, and good music should never have an expiration date, especially within this spectrum of music that operate within.

If you were there, you can have a little replay.  If you weren't (as many of you were not, due to how quickly it sold out), press play and turn it up loud.  But in either case, if you're feeling this, as always, please hit me with a like / favorite / repost / share / comment / retweet / or all of the above.  Big thank you's to my colleagues at React / The Mid for having me be part of this.  Really happy to share this with you all.

Mix of the Day: Sean Branton

I made my first trip to Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) this year, and it was quite an amazing trip!  As I have always done with Miami Music Week / Winter Music Conference each year in March, I put together a showcase mix that features works of my own, my peers, and works of artists and labels that I've grown to love and respect.  When I weave all of these factors together, and then tell a story in a seamless DJ mix, you get the final product and that thing I feel that I do best.

Coming home from this European adventure, I not only felt super-inspired and ready to get back to work, but I feel great about my avenue of sound as an artist, label manager, and event curator, especially after being exposed to such amazing things out there.

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a like / favorite / repost / share / comment / retweet / or all of the above.  The support from all of you is what keeps me moving forward.  Thank you.  :)

RJ Pickens - ADE 2017 Showcase Mix

Doors open at 10.  The dance floor is empty, and the club is a blank canvas.  Properly painting a deep and groovy mood is what must be done, because very soon, the dance floor will be teeming with activity, and it's of utmost importance that the vibe in the room be warm, as it's the foundation that the rest of the night will be built upon.  Many years of experience in playing the first slot of the night has made me proficient at digging deep and curating a lush vibe -- and while I'm fortunate and happy to play some later slots on some great events these days, I don't shy away from kicking a proper night off if I'm asked to.  

I was really happy with how this set came together, it was a pleasure to help kick off the Requiem event series, and to also share the roster with the esteemed Dubfire.  Thank you to those of you who came out early and were there for it, and thanks to my colleagues at The Mid / React for having me.  

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a like / favorite / repost / share / comment / retweet / or all of the above.  Much Love.

RJ Pickens - Support For Dubfire - Requiem Launch - The Mid CHI - 24NOV2017

Alright, Gab Rhome, you convinced us! Our livers (and waistlines) could use a cleansing break after all those delicious cocktails. Let’s cut out booze for a while and enjoy a rejuvenating and energizing glass of the earth’s most delicious, most healthy foods: milk!  

Gab Rhome, born in Montréal and living in NYC, milked his favorite cow (what’s her name by the way?) on his farm to ensure today’s Schirmchendrink is full of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. 

Grab a cookie and dip it into Gab’s dreamy and hypnotic vibes. 

He began his musical journey at an early age playing multiple instruments while being shaped by jazz music, and it only took a few years before making a transition towards the rhythms of dance music. 

Only within few years of producing Gab gained worldwide attention with releases on label heavy weights such as All Day I Dream, Anjunadeep, Kindisch, Get Physical and Last night on Earth.  

His delicate melodic tech-house productions have brought him on journeys across the globe, for example to the @radiovenao Gathering in Panama, where this set was recorded. As you are about to experience, a similar voyage is built during his dj sets.  

Thank you, Gab, for caring about our health! And now let’s finish your milk! We can’t put it back to the cow… 

Cheers, 
The bartenders

Here's the recording of my set from the Mixmag Lab in New York on March 30. 

It was an amazing experience to play in the new Brooklyn Mixmag Office during their weekly Lab session. As it was my first time jamming during a live video stream, it was an interesting challenge to pick only a dozen of records to play to the online audience. There were so many tracks I wanted to share, I decided to do my selection from music from some friends & labels I love but I also included a few of my upcoming songs & collabs. 

I'd like to say a big thank you to Rocky & the Mixmag NY team for putting together such a cool & creative production, they were running around all night long to capture all the possible angles (all this while dancing and smiling). And of course, thank you to all the friends & music lovers who keep supporting what we do as artists, it means everything! 

If you wanna watch the action as it happened, you can stream the full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1HISVu3Yqc&t=3286s

Technism Mix Series #93 [ RJ Pickens guest mix ]

On Nov 17th, 2012, we had a visit from a star player from the Pryda|Friends camp.
Rising star - JEREMY OLANDER - came thru and dropped some musical knowledge on our fine citizens of the Windy City republic.  Some really fantastic music was played all night, starting with birthday boy Victor Tormenta, followed by my good buddy and SpyBar pointman - Wahi.  Jeremy O then came on and made some heads explode, and then I was left to clean-up hit.  And I feel pretty confident in saying that things cleaned up nicely.  Haha!
It was an honor to throw it down and close out an amazing night of dance music.
There was a moment or two in there where I thought Vision was implode from people going nuts on the dancefloor.  Seriously...
Massive thanks to all of you who were there and helped make this night a really memorable one.  If you listen closely, you might even hear yourself hootin' and hollerin'!

RJPickens - Live at Vision Chicago - 17Nov2012 (closer for Jeremy Olander, w/ mic'd crowd)

Hello, fellow inmates! 🔐 I crafted and live-mixed a really fun 2hr set for this month's episode of Vested pres: FloorControl Radio, and I’m pretty pumped to share it with you all!  While I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to what I post music-wise, this mix is not perfect, but it really embodies a place I’m in musically right now, and reflects feelings of being caged-up that we’re all feeling.  Great new music on here, a few old favorites, a few of my own production handiwork, and a great flow of rowdy tunes will set the pace for you.  Pretty happy with how it turned out!

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a like / favorite / share / repost / or all of the above!

Much love from a safe distance,
RJ
