Live @ Nowadays Nonstop - Jan. 20, 2024

This is a wild, unapologetic, barnstorming ride recorded between 1:00-4:00 on a throbbing dancefloor during the first leg of Nowadays Nonstop on the night of Jan 20. This was a romp of delivering my intentions passionately and precisely, playing many of my favorites, and operating at my very best across genres, traveling through a tunnel of engulfing psychedelic darkness, bass weight, shifting tempos, and beat structures into celebratory light. 

As an artist/DJ, these are some of the moments one lives for. It’s certainly something I’ve dreamed about for years. The opportunity to play in one of the rave’s hallowed halls - one of the most esteemed clubs and my own very favorite - was a dream come true and has been a quiet moment of apotheosis and vindication of years of dedicated, focused work. 

There are many nods and treats in this set: tracks shown to me by friends, absolute hypnotizing favorites and gems I’ve held onto, the voice of my true love, and (for those following my lore closely) the magic of opening with Phil Elverum’s work. Tracklist below:

My opening set at @body-language-berlin at a secret location rave was such an honor, pleasure and joy to perform. 
It felt like a real rave, off location, last minute changes due to venue eviction of the previous location, community hands on effort and pure passion on the dance floor. 

Even though playing main slots can be more fun in terms of energy I personally also love to open a night. Set the tone. Welcome people into a space that we will share for the next hours, individual goals yet one thing that unifies us: The joy of music and community to build strength, hope and resistance.

Shout out to @stella-zekri-ouiddir, @cami_lutz and Caitlin for holding it down and pushing through to pull of this amazing night.

Need Me

LADY - Dog House

1 Night

Back in 2016, Skee Mask and Zenker Brothers spontaneously attempted to play together at an afterparty in Prague, but after ten minutes the electricity failed. Two years later they finally had the opportunity to play a joint extended set for the first time - at Unsound Kraków 2018. The three DJs closed Saturday night in Hotel Forum with an expansive set building on adventurous forms of techno, jungle and broken beat, combining the collective interests of Ilian Tape. The set kicked off at 4am in the Ball Room.
