750 days....That’s how long we had to postpone our debut as “Formerly” due to the epidemic.  

Originally programmed for April 11th, 2020, in Miami, just a month after the world shut down, we waited patiently for an end to the great pause that felt might never arrive.  In fact, the concept was almost all but abandoned by the four of us when we received the invitation to play at Robot Heart's historical Central Park debut: an opportunity to finally share our passion project together with everyone that was just too good to refuse. 

So without hesitation, we accepted, getting right to work preparing, and after a three-day music session together in Bushwick on May 1st, 2022, we emerged  for our premier; at last, together with a crowd full of Friends & Family and hosted by our brothers at RH precisely 750 days after initially planned. 

All we can say is it was worth the wait. 

Thank you to RH, NYC, and all our fans for joining us on this new adventure.   Hope to catch you all on dance floors soon.

Innervisions #50 LIVE Podcast - David August

“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

"All Over Deep" draws ideas from the early days of deep techno sound and was originally planned in jest of a particular artist. While the song name stays as a faint hint and reminder, all other plans such as vocals were skipped. What remains is a silky twinkling progressive piece that shall get you going.

"It was already a really overwhelming, but also exhausting, week for me at my first Burning Man. Then there was this Friday night. From the moment I started playing I felt so good and watching all those tiny lights on people's bikes heading towards the bus, it looked so beautiful. After my set I had so much energy that I stayed and danced on the bus for at least 12 more hours. This was a very special experience and that bus is definitely one of the coolest things I've ever played on, and I'm more than happy that I had a little role in this whole adventure.

cheers
Paul"

Art Piece: The Sonic Runway is a 1000 foot long corridor of lights connected to a sound system.  As thumping beats race across the desert, they trigger patterns of light that ripple down the corridor at the speed of sound. Wherever you stand, the lights and sound are in sync. You’ll never see sound the same again.

A long-awaited wish was fulfilled as I was invited to play my music at Robot Heart: the wish to express myself in such a magical setting, among kindred spirits and friends. 

Being given the honor of playing at sunrise right in front of the man made it all the more special to me. 

Thank you!

I’m happy to release my recording from Sandbox Festival in Hurghada Egypt. I always love playing the Middle East. The sights, sounds, tastes, and smells are very different than my home, all of which represent one of my favorite aspects of DJing: getting enjoy the world’s diversity. Beyond that, I’ve found that the people of the region are an incredibly friendly and passionate bunch, so playing a festival that attracts the heads from many across the region was special for me.

The Sandbox mainstage was a big one - these stages are sometimes tricky for me as I feel pressured to go for the jugular and bang out a medley of big drops for those hands in the air moments, but I resisted the pressure and went instead for undulation between the deep moments building to the big ones while maintaining a steady groove through. Hope that idea came through, hope you enjoy the set, and can’t wait to make my way back to the Middle East!
Thanks @moagalleryph (IG) for the photo.
