"Like, how is this even possible? - These are the words of my fiancée opening my set at this year's Maxa x Mayan Warrior linkup. I did ask myself the same thing standing on the deer, gazing into the sea of people and art cars in front of us, lost for words at the beauty of this moment. 

It was the first big night after the dust had settled and the rain had dried, and let me tell you - this set was beyond my wildest dreams. So much fun, incredibly special for so many reasons, and pretty surreal, especially considering that I had just arrived on the playa a few hours before after two exhausting days of travel. 
I walked the last miles through the desert to make it in time…

Thank you so much, Maxa and Mayan Warrior - this was sublime <3

Love,
Fabian

Maxa, you gave us the last sunrise, and we went all in.

The crazy rain, the dust storms, and the struggles of a full week dissolved the instant we pressed play.

A big thank you, to Maxa for your trust and for sharing your beautiful art car. And thank you to all the lovely souls who shared those moments with us. 

Much love,
Mehran & Behnam

Kalaman - Tomorrow Today - Burning Man 2025 (Sunset)

As the first release from Burning Man 2025, we’re honored to share a set that carries a different kind of Playa energy - one made for a night like Burn Night. Bilal blessed us with a set rich in soul and grit, channeling the roots of house from Detroit, Chicago, and New York - the very foundation that shaped the dance floor. 🕺🏽✨

In Bilal’s own words:

this was burn #11 for me. and you'd think you know what to expect by now. but NOPE! this place really knows how to throw a curveball at all of us... but seeing people bounce back and knock that curveball out of the park is more amazing to see. 

i really didnt know what to expect on Man Burn Night, surrounded by all the different art cars and crowds. its basically like standing in the TV section at Best Buy with every channel blaring at once. 

anyway, this mix is the result of the environment at the time. i had fun sharing this music and i hope you do too. 

BIG LOVE & GRATITUDE TO THE ENTIRE ROBOT HEART CREW FOR ALL THE MAGIC YOU POUR INTO THIS, YEAR AFTER YEAR!

Thursday early a.m. carried the full spectrum of the playa: the waiting and then the lift of it all finally coming together. It was dark and still, fragile and fleeting, but in that moment everything was in motion. Riche at the helm. 

“Arriving at this moment on the Playa, playing for Robot Heart was the definition of delayed gratification after so much blood, sweat, and tears.

We arrived in 70 mph winds on Saturday, and our plane made the fastest landing the control tower had ever seen. Then we had to postpone the bus twice, and it truly seemed like it wasn’t going to happen this year. But somehow, at the very last moment, they ran into my camp, found me in the dinner line, and asked if I could play that first clear night. It all came together in that imperfect yet perfect playa way, and now it’s a memory I’ll never forget.

After days of storms and chaos, we were all ready to finally let go and dance. We rocked the bus, and I couldn’t stop smiling, surrounded by the joy of it all.

To my Robot Heart family, thank you for welcoming me into yours and trusting me with this moment. The bus is history, the future, and a hallowed place for music.

I couldn’t have done it without my friends, my community, and everyone who helped make it happen. I love you all to the moon and back. Thank you. We did it.

And to everyone watching now, I hope you feel the energy and love we all felt that night from the 🤖❤️.”
