Isaiah Martin Feat. Snow Raven - Live Set on the PlayAlchemist outside stage for Friday morning sunrise during Burning Man 2022.

Isaiah Martin has been an integral part of programming the music for PlayAlchemist for years and is our Music Maestro for the annual Alchemist Ball. This year he invited Snow Raven to perform live with him and the magic was electric! Their set was completely unrehearsed and a pure flow state of music. Taking you back to that portal opening sunrise….

SNOW RAVEN - SUOR was born in one of the most remote and cold inhabited places in the world - the Republic of Sakha - Yakutia (arctic Siberia). She was three years old when she started to learn the language of birds and animals. Her voice takes its breath from traditional Sakha culture and is truly an instrument. She is the OG of “arctic beatbox” - the reindeer breath and the founder of OLOX, the NEOshamanic Portal to a Decentralized Humanity, Earth and Consciousness.

"It’s 2022. We are back on playa after the pandemic break. With us, Mayan Warrior in its natural habitat. 
 
We ride out in the middle of a dust storm, along with my chosen 100 tracks. The selection is inspired by what Mayan Warrior means to me. It represents the fusion between contemporary art and tradition. Crazy lasers over the handcrafted god’s eye. Unmatched sound coming from a millenary Mayan figure. A representation of what makes Mexico such a special place.

It’s a mix of old tracks I love and unreleased music from some of my favorite artists. A lot of it from Mexican artists and labels. As I am about to start, I see dozens of bikes powering through the storm. I trash my original plan on song 2 as I try to capture the moment. Eventually, a beautiful sunset emerges. This is my set on top of the Mayan Warrior.

I hope you like it. Thank you to everyone that came out to ride with me. And THANK YOU Mayan team. Thank you for the insane amount of work put in this beautiful piece of art roaming the desert. For the years of inspiration and incredible music."

Nacho Isa - Mayan Warrior - Burning Man 2022

This set is made up of my own unreleased music, and I think of it as an album.

In 2019, I released another album/set. https://soundcloud.com/robot-heart/jason-douglas-robot-heart-burning-man-2019. People have shared that it has been the soundtrack for deaths, births, first steps, ceremonies, and the beginning moments of every morning. 

This Dust is the follow-up, and I hope it lives as full of a life as the first one. As with many sophomore attempts, it was hard to push it out into the world.

It was written as a love letter to the burn during the insular months of the pandemic.  I was with my closest friends and family, traveling to a new town on the East Coast each month while writing this. I wrote until I tapped the well dry, something I didn’t know was possible. It turns out that making electronic music when there is nobody to play it for will eventually lead to writer’s block.

If you’re reading this, I discovered that your energy is more in my music than I realized. An “audience” doesn’t exist in electronic music in the traditional sense. Both the musician and the crowd are on equal footing. There is no social contract that you must listen politely to my set and clap.  You dance if it’s good. You listen if it’s good, and you are under no obligations if it’s not.  We both need to show up, or the thing doesn’t happen. It’s co-creation, and I learned that without the co-creators, my creativity has a limit.

It was a titanic effort to finish this, and an even harder one for me to release it. It was filled with obstacles and doubt. It contains my heartbreak, grief, sadness, and a hope for when I would see my way to the other side of that.

The ethereal, melodic, and at times, cinematic themes I’ve played with here and in my 2019 set feel explored. Something new is coming through that I have been experimenting with. I don’t have it yet, but I’m finding its edges. For now, I’m glad to have this out.

Thank you for your support along the way and for being my co-creator.

This Dust - Burning Man 2024

One my favourite moments from Burning Man was having the opportunity to play music from the Lucy S Cargo art car during sunrise. Already just biking in a gorilla onesie through the dust to find the glowing snail in the middle of the playa while the first signs of daylight were beginning to colour the sky was pretty surreal. @christianvoldstad played a beautiful set before I started around 6am while the sun was still hidden behind the mountains in the distance. A few friends, some small groups and solo burners danced on and around the car, others hung out in nearby art cars that had pulled up to listen, others climbed a nearby art installation, others pumped a fist while they biked passed. Ice cold Bloody Marys being served by our amazing hosts to any takers from the cutest little cart and the back of the snail.

By 6.30 or so the sun had started to peak over the horizon and within what seemed like a few minutes, had risen fully bringing the heat of a new day in the desert. Then right after me, my brother @koramusique took over with a masterful session that ended ushering Lucy over to the temple where the Black Rock Philharmonic was playing a special performance. Keep an eye and ear out for this special recording coming soon 👀 this was the beginning of an pretty epic day..

Ðexter Crowe @ Burning Man 2024 [ Sunrise On Lucy S. Cargo Art Car ]

Every visit to Modi Nochi is like entering a vortex. More than a venue, it’s a wonderland. A colorful container for connection, sound and shared joy. This is all made possible by Moshe, whose loving generosity and soulful outlook on life invites visitors to escape the noise of the matrix and show up as the best version of themselves.  

The custom built DJ booth is nestled into the heart of the lounge room, surrounded by cushions, couches, and lovely creatures. An ideal setting for me to feel comfortable and connected with the audience. It feels like home and invites me to explore the full range of my collection with confidence and flow. We celebrate you Moshe . Looking forward to the next time.

Sunday Sunrise at Alborz has become a special tradition and perhaps my most meaningful morning at the burn. Thank you, Alborz, and everyone who joined for joining this smooth ride with me. Flow doesn't begin to describe it. 

A morning that will stay with me for a long time. 

enjoy this beauty,

Pain becomes a silent guide, shaping consciousness where words can no longer reach. Each echo traces the fragile architecture of resilience, revealing memories that shift, distort, and linger beneath the surface. Through distant logic and inner movement, the self learns to rebuild its own frequency, transforming fracture into clarity and tension into direction. In the silent pulse that survives each collapse, a deeper truth emerges: growth is born where struggle meets intention, and every shadowy fragment becomes part of the path forward.

Hola!

 Here is the recording of my very first sunrise set at Burning Man 2018 in the Black Rock Desert. I started playing around 5:45 am, the lights and lasers were still glowing in the cold darkness of the night..as the songs were passing by, the sky turned blue and the horizon warmer. Burners were all facing the deep playa, waiting for the sun to appear. It was an honour to soundtrack this moment and share music in such a magical place. No matter how hard I try, words can barely describe the energy and emotions felt in that instant... I hope music can express it better. 

I'd like to thank Maxa Camp & The Gardens of Babylon for inviting me to play on this beautiful Xaman Art Car...the mystical blue deer.   I’m very grateful to have shared this moment with so many incredible souls, old and new friends. 

Merci à mon ami Vince Dub d'avoir photographié ce moment!

Symbiose — a state of flow, a synergy between elements, a relationship interconnecting living organisms. 🌱 
____

I always found it challenging to record a studio podcast: my analytical mind is trying to calculate every move, evaluate each transition & criticize the selection. I have time, music & equipment at my disposal, but one key element is missing to really tell a story: humans.
____

I encountered that problem last weekend. Although I was playing music I enjoy, I felt that my technically structured mix was too stiff and impersonal. 

____

Then, some of my favourite humans turned up at the studio. As Ashley, Apolline, Axel & Robin entered the room, the studio was suddenly filled with a great energy & I felt like pressing the rec button again, just for fun - this is when the first minutes of  S y m b i o s e  were captured. 
____

I feel this studio mix is an authentic representation of the energy levels I like to navigate through during a longer set. It features some of my favourite tracks in a nod to the past but also has a touch of the future; new sounds that are moving me forward & some of my new compositions. 
____

I’m happy to share this mix as I’m taking off for Argentina, what marks my first adventure of the decade. This music session brought me clarity, presence & joy! I hope you'll resonate with it.

Thank you for joining the story,

  Kora

There are only a handful of places on the planet where electronic music is treated like art.  The bus is one of them, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share music on it.   The tracks in this set are my own original compositions or edits. I consider this to be an album release.   The music is, for the most part, tuned to 432hz in Just Intonation. This tuning follows the harmonic series, and is in harmony with the mathematics of nature.   I hope you feel it with as much love as I put in. Finally, I want to thank the Robot Heart team for working on the system through the night to get the bus out that morning. Your effort meant a great deal to me.
