Mayan Warrior is the result of a collaborative project that has united artists, craftsmen, photographers, designers, technologists, architects and musicians from Mexico City and Northern California. 

The project’s original intent was to present to the world the incredible ascent of contemporary Mexican electronic music while paying respect to the deep and ancient sources from which that visual and auditory culture had grown.


Both light and sound are curated by some of the world’s most prominent artists to transport participants to the very origins of the culture – and to a new understanding of contemporary electronic expression.

AND YES: Mayan Warrior is driven from Mexico City to the playa – and back – each year. It's a labor of love and we're glad so many people enjoy it.

Dean Benson is 20 years into his electronic musical venture, and is just getting started.

Launching his imprint 'The Black Light Records' in 2024 is the offical birth of his production coming into the world, outside of his DJ sets whom have housed them for years.

Orpheyo Dragon is the signature hypnotic techno project that has been following Dean since it was launched at Rainbow Serpent Festival in 2018, where Dean Benson is reserved for everything from down-tempo to ambient hypnotic or meditative music.

Having been a regular at most premier outdoor festivals in Australia like Rainbow Serpent, Earth Frequency & Dragon Dreaming, it resulted in some great international bookings with renowned festivals such as Modem (Croatia), Midnight Sun (Norway) & Summer Contrast (Poland), amongst various club shows.

Dean's runs his own business as a Spirit Practitioner and Mentor, supporting others in their Soul mission, especially artists, prospective parents and those who have suffered for too long. Head to website for more info.
