This set was recorded live in Playa Venao, Panama for Weekend 2 of Reactor Venao festival. I played from 1:00-4:00am inside of the Reactor project and was really feeding off of the high energy from the dancefloor during the entire 3 hours -- it was such an epic and unforgettable night. Hope you enjoy the ride! :) And if you were there, hope this brings you back to that moment. ♥ Julya

Julya Karma @ Reactor Venao Festival, Panama | April 2022

Words can't describe yet another sunrise of epic proportions this time at the C.A.M.P. (Calling all Magical People) co-created gathering. Right at the beginning of my DJ set at 4:30 am on July 4th (US Independence Day) the cops showed up to try to shut the party down due to noise complaints.

I had the difficult task of keeping the decibel levels under a certain threshold, so I had to nurture a huge dance floor for the closing set of the festival until 7am somewhat quietly until we were able to ramp up the volume to proper dance floor levels.

I am not sure if it was that we all wanted this so badly, or the majestic rays of sunshine coming down upon us, all I know is that 17 encore songs & tracks after the supposedly closing "Lovely Day" song, we kept raving and raging until we almost dropped.

One of the most memorable mornings in my 21 years of DJ'ing. Here's the recording of the full 4.5 hrs of the closing sunrise DJ set. I hope it takes you all back and for those of you who weren't there I hope it brings you the sunrise  joy and magic we collectively had.

Recorded live from the ruins of an abandoned 200-year-old factory in Atlixco, Mexico for Mezcal Amores - Boda de Muertos.  This epic venue and the atmosphere of the crowd really inspired the moods captured in this set. Hope you enjoy the ride.

Julya Karma @ Amores Experience - Boda De Muertos | October 2022

It was one for the books! Flooded with up’s and downs. 

This was the oldest man in the history of Burning Man I believe; with extra days on the Playa we all got a little wiser.  It was wonderful to see people come together and weather the storms. 

Big thanks to my Robot Heart camp for making this after the rain party happen. Much love to everyone who came out to celebrate with us.  

This set is dedicated to everyone who made to the dust and to the ones who rocked the mud. 

XO, 
Dill

Robot Heart was certainly one of our biggest dreams, and we are thrilled that it came true. 

It was definitely a surprise to find a sandstorm upon arriving at the art car, but that's what makes Burning Man special. Thank you for dancing and spreading love and positivity throughout the playa.

For pretty much the whole year I’m either headed towards or away from Burning Man. 

Each year out there there’s this moment in space and time where I feel perfectly balanced between the two. It’s a moment where time stands still, just for a second. 

That moment is when the first ember of the day’s sun peaks over the mountain top to begin its journey once more. 

I try to find a piece of music to express the feeling of stillness and presence I get.  This year the sun was kind enough to arrive 1 hour 28 minutes and 40 seconds into this mix. I was in awe. I’m still in awe.

Some of the magic of the playa for me is where the nature blends with boundless creativity. Where love meets wonder and we get to laugh, dance and play. Add a dash of music for good measure and, for a moment, that magic catches its breath to take it all in, and stands still.

2024 was one of my favorite years ever. Thank you to all you artists and lovers, cooks and cuddlers. To all those who toil for months before and after to make it happen and to anyone who gave anything to another. You’re all amazing. I’m currently headed back towards (or is it away from) that moment once more.

Lee Burridge - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2024

¨There are very few more surreal and mind-blowing setups one can play than standing behind the decks on an art car at Burning Man. Next level is when the art car is driving and another one when you are driving through a sandstorm. All of this happened when I had the pleasure to play Mayan Warrior’s new stunning Galaxyer. We set off just after the Man-burn Saturday night and rode into deep playa, followed by a herd of colourful, blinking people on their bikes, cheering whilst weathering the storm. And when we parked, the moving energy turned into a powerful dancefloor within minutes. These experiences are so extraordinary and rewarding in so many ways, one of the main reasons why I come back to the desert over and over again. So thank you to everybody who came a long for the ride.

When Rodrigo asked me if I wanted to come up with something special to set the tone for the man-burn night, my answer was obviously Yes. Tbh he could have asked for anything, as there is no question when one gets the chance to participate and play for this amazing collective. 

Thank you so much for your trust, inviting me into the tribe and all the handwork that goes into making all of it possible. I will never forget it and I hope this recording will transport you and convey the
magic just a little bit. It was a true honour to be part of your crazy endeavour!

Happy listening and see you in the dust!¨

This set wouldn’t exist without the dusty souls who participated in Curiouser & Curiouser, bringing their creative energy in full force.

Thank you to Burning Man, Robot Heart, and all the camps, artists, musicians, and creators who continue to shape and inspire the vibrance of the playa.

Each burn is its own journey—for me, this one was extra-dimensional. 🗝️✨
