All my sets

I created this mix from tunes that I played over and over while making images for my art show : In Search of Sight - Chapter 1 - "beautiful…" 

“Waves are crashing, sun is transforming and all of a sudden hundreds of black dots filled the sky. That was the moment my retina decided it was going to let loose. It was quite beautiful and poetic…" 

This mix is dedicated to that moment in time and the friends who helped me bring chapter 1 - "beautiful…" to life. much love , dill

In Search of Sight - Chapter 1 - "Beautiful…"

“On sacred Colombian territory we entered a challenging and rewarding adventure that will help us deconstruct limiting beliefs to access and ignite our authentic self.” (Re-treated)

It was night time and the full-ish moon was smiling down as the river flowed and all the creatures made their distinct sounds. A fire warmed our bodies as music feed our souls. 

Inspired by the human experience that unfolded in a beautiful container surrounded by Mother Nature. This set was a celebration of the journey’s ending … or was it the just beginning ;) I was in a complete flow state, I knew two tracks I wanted to start with and two towards the end. Tunes were pulled from many different pockets of my collection.

On the property was an amazing labyrinth. Our journey and realizations through it weaved their way into this set. I later googled life and labyrinth and found this:  

“Our life path can be viewed as a labyrinth guiding us to deeper meaning and fulfillment. Walking a labyrinth takes us through numerous twists and turns that symbolize the ebb and flow of life. Like the design of a labyrinth, what looks like an end point in life can also be a beginning point.” (link below)

I’m now obsessed with labyrinths!!! Thus the title of this release.

Special thanks to the Re-treated family 001 - “Class” of Feb 2023 - Santa Marta - Colombia! Your love and energy brought this set to life. Eternally grateful to each of you!  

Let’s keep dancing together ❤️💪

Life as a Labyrinth - Santa Marta - Colombia - Feb 9 2023

A fairytale themed evening in the woods in Northern California, amidst an open minded group of creatives. 

We enjoyed the opportunity to explore musically beyond some of the normal dance floor and venue constraints.

T.S. Eliot leads us off with a excerpted reading from the Dry Salvages... and off on our adventure we go.

Masrit - Eagle Eye (Original Mix)

Since I am not playing any sets this Halloween season, as I’ve benched myself again till I can figure out how to make my ears happy and tinnitus calm. I've decided to release this 1.5 hour slice of a 6.5 hour set. Some of my favorite good vibe tunes at the time - old and new - well all old now ;) This mix is from 4 years ago. Halloween afterparty at 159. I was rocking a wig the whole night and morning... by the weeeeeeeeeeee hours, it looked legit from all the sweat and shenanigans. It was one of those flow state sets where tracks were just melting into each other and choosing each other… lots of love in the air and smiles all around.  Thus the name of the mix - AphroDILLiac, my nickname from the party. Hope you enjoy this little flashback..xo Dill

We’re continuing the Schirmchendrink anniversary month with a spicy version of the famous bloody mary cocktail. Squire, one of Barcelona’s most exciting up-and-coming artists, give’s the cocktail classic a delicious Spanish touch.

Born with a jazz-tinged soul, Squire’s music delivers a unique sound that merges emotional and dancefloor friendly house with an incredible variety of influences. Perhaps the key to his success has been his complete focus and respect for music traditions, and a keen open eye to the future of electronic music. 

Despite his young career Squire’s trackrecord includes releases on labels such as Get Physical, Rebellion, my Favorite Robot or Earthly Delights. We love his latest collab with Do Not Sit head Behrouz, the Honey on my Lips EP, released on Do Not Sit’s own imprint. 

Therefore, Ladies and Gentleman, please enjoy this superbe Gazpacho Bloody Mary by Squire! We can’t get enough o fit! 

Cheers,
The Bartenders

Pablo Bolívar — Podcast 13 Sin Hilo

so it was a rainy afternoon in Singapore, I'm in bed listening to some of my favorite chill tracks - old, newish and in between.  at one point thunder and beats dominate the air..  I stopped the music to record the storm on my ipad and enjoy natures rhythms!  

Later I decided to go back and make a short mix ...   since I cannot use my usual set up because of my eye / recovery situation I decided to give traktor on my ipad a go..  so keep that in mind as u listen.. its my first iPad traktor mix, no editing.. one strait go at it.  it reminded me of making a mix back in the day. 

Hope you enjoy , I only had a few chilled out beats on my ipad .. they helped keep me company thru my bed recovery!  thank you all for the love and support... xo

p.s.  photo taken from my bed that afternoon.

Rainy Afternoon Dillight (Recovery mix)

On what was supposed to be Burn Night for Burning Man 2020, which was unfortunately canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, 60 individuals co-created a beautiful alternative burn ceremony in a stunning natural location in Zion National Park in Utah, renegade style. The sunset and the moonrise were breathtaking. We danced into the night. At the end we burned a 1 foot tall man and said a burner's prayer. Every aspect of this event was born out of synchronicity, radical participation, and community effort. It was a rare and spontaneous moment of pure bliss and magic.

Selections by:
Pasquale / J.Richards / Drew Proud / Airwolf / Miles / Ralu / Jaymarc / Petra Petrovich / RÏA / Aaron Nessel

Keeping the vibes strong through the afternoon NYD, ebb + flow / Abracadabra TV resident Saqib electrified the dance floor in the special corner of Avant Gardner we know and love, Gunita's Tavern.

"This set was a very fun, high energy set that was based off the energy in the room that New Year's Day 2020. The room was bumping and jumping. There was a huge rush of excitement for this new decade and new year twenty fuggin twenty! Perfect vision.  It was so innocent, so sweet, our enthusiasm... so precious, haha! This was actually my favorite set of the last year or two... and looking back now... it was such a perfect beginning to such a terrible year! I can never forget this night/day."

The Journey…



(2022-Present) - I'm back in the game... baby... but with a newfound respect for my ears and not playing too many gigs. xo   

(9.2021) After a 4-year break from the bus…
I tested my ears w/ 4 sets at the Free Burn. 
for Geo! <3 <3 <3 

(9.2017-9.2021) 
Burning Man (2017) I played an epic sunrise set with Swamy on top of the bus. It was magic and the perfect ending to my old ways of playing. I'm still searching for a new way to express music. Stay tuned!

After 20 years of music selecting I am on the bench from playing gigs. I am giving my ears a bit of time to hopefully settle down. I developed screaming tinnitus two years ago (winter of 2016) and have played less than a handful of sets since. The recovery from a set is about two months and while I'm playing the best way to describe the feeling is "sound penetrates my ears like a probing alien." - Me - (2016)

 Bio from the Good old days (till 2016)

John Dill is an internationally renowned DJ who began his career with residencies at legendary house havens like Le Souk Sunday Sessions and Sullivan Room. He immediately emerged as one of the most beloved personas in NYC nightlife and has been on an upward trajectory ever since. He fine tuned his signature sound in Ibiza back in 2000 and quickly gained a cult like following in underground venues throughout North America, the Caribbean and Asia.  

Known for his magical ability to read the crowd and select the perfect track from his eclectic record collection, John Dill’s sound is unmistakable. Whether one of his deep, soulful gems dropped into a party or a mind-bending surprise at one of his acclaimed marathon sets at Burning Man, the sound of Dill on the decks makes any venue a destination.  

A long time resident at Robot Heart, Dill has shared the decks with luminaries like Lee Burridge, NU, Marques Wyatt, Mark Farina, Derrick Carter, Tom Middleton and Oceanus Orientalis to name a few.  

In recent years, Dill has expanded beyond the underground house music scene to include more prominent venues with broader appeal. He’s a regular fixture on Richard Branson’s Necker Island thanks to Mai Tai, where he once had Sir Richard dancing on a couch. He's also a favorite on the festival circuit where he inspires love from audiences at Desert Hearts, Wonderfruit and the more cutting edge crowd at Further Future.

Robot Heart is a collective of doers and dreamers, artists and entrepreneurs. Our home is in the desert dust of Burning Man, and the streets of New York City, Detroit, Bay Area and Hong Kong. Home is wherever the Heart is.

Robot Heart is a community and a family, and our events are an extension and celebration of that community, bound together by shared values of inclusion, giving, environmental responsibility and mutual respect.

Music is our first language, and our mission is to bring love and beats to the world. We work with and support artists, technologists and visionaries of all types in order to create incredible experiences and connected moments. To create love and beats, for you.
