March 5th 2022, Oaxaca - Mexico, in the middle of an agave field in no-man's land. A festival organized with incredible love and dedication. People who have not come to celebrate themselves, but have come to celebrate together. People who share a passion for music. People who listen actively and not just mindlessly cheer when the fog machine kicks in. People with wonderful outfits. People who expand your horizons, who give you ideas and thoughts along the way. People I will never forget.
I had the honor to DJ during sunrise, a magical moment when the cold of the night was shaken off and everyone was shining in the warm, red light of the morning sun.

Listen to the other sets from that night as well. The lineup was great:

What a year...
I played many live sets in 2022. Each one was special and each one was different. I recorded just a few. This one I wanted to share with you. 
 Can’t wait to see you all live in 2023. ♡

Rampue - Live Autumn 2022

"¡Feliz Décimo Cumpleaños!
Friday night. Apocalypse. Here we are again.
A dance with a (dust) storm of love : full of ups and downs, light and darkness, chaos and harmony - expect the unexpected and true love will find you in the end.
Thank you to the Mayan Warrior family (and all the people who braved that nasty storm with us)!
Love you forever.
For Raver, Forever ever...
V."

Viken Arman - Mayan Warrior - Burning Man 2022

When the Temple burns, we bury a part of ourselves. 

We remember. We cry. We smile. And we move forward. 

A beautiful moment of eternity. Something intimate. Sometimes hard. Somehow sacred.

Playing on the Robot Heart bus after the Temple Burn has become an annual tradition for me.  It's a very special moment emotionally.  But this one was the toughest.  For many reasons...

But in the end, this closing opened the door to something bigger.

I am forever grateful for what happened afterward. Family for life. Unforgettable. All love.

Nico Stojan @ Garbicz Festival 2023

Saturday, 7am, G camp, Burning Man 2024

Kotoe, Madmotormiquel and myself (Nacho Isa) take on the decks for the last G camp party of the week. The rest is history. A wild morning into the afternoon. Ten hours of ups and downs. 

If you were there you know what we are talking about. If you weren't this will give you an idea of what that morning was.

Thanks to everyone that came to support us and in particular to all the Gs that were a key component to the magic of the day.

Fusion, thank you. 🎶🪩🚀

My hybrid set from Friday Morning on Sonnendeck is out now on Soundcloud. I hope you enjoy it!

///


 It was my first Fusion, definitely not the last. One of the most inclusive, affordable, sustainable and badass events I had a chance to see. The level of creativity, the quality of sound systems, the absence of authority or security, yet the feeling of safety and community. An impressive and powerful sonic city that shows us how the world can be when we work for a greater purpose, together, with strong values. 

This set represents a lot for me, after quite an heart opening trip in Beirut, Lebanon right before Fusion, getting closer to the war opened my eyes to the energies, challenges and times we are living in, while being fuelled and inspired by the beautiful resilience of people. ❤️

The dancefloor as a revolution. Music as a way to heal. The community as a foundation to rebuild the world from the heart space. 🌍   Gratitude to the Sonnendeck crew for the invitation, to everyone who came to dance for the morning session, and big love to old and new friends who made this journey memorable.

I got two whole dollars in my birthday card but it's house

"My first burn… wow!! Still speechless & filled with Playa energy. A full week of breathtaking sunrises, hugging greets, beautiful art, randomness in the biggest sense of the word, cold nights, odd sleeping patterns and 8 days of laughter, love, smiles, tears, energy, sensory overload, dust everywhere, beautiful music and support from familiar faces and new amazing human beings which i can now call my genuine friends. A big THANXXX to Robot Heart for having me. Playing the bus monday morning 4AM after a week of deep playa adventures was the icing on the cake.  Big hugs to all the hard core burners who made it out to dance with me post temple burn.

As Patrice Baumel put it into words : "This place is so good I want to keep it to myself and share it with everybody at the same time.” Enjoy the journey...

"I am not a friend of over indulging when it comes to my own sets. 
While planning my Burn this year I just tried to let go of everything. Eventually this turned out to be some very moving days of my life. 
One special moment this year was at the Robot Heart bus on Sunday morning.  
Thank you to all who made this possible, who supported me on my ways and to all who shared my passion for music with me."

Mira - Robot Heart 10 Year Anniversary - Burning Man 2017

It’s pretty hard to describe anything from Burning Man without using phrases, sounding pathetic or cheesy. 
So maybe I shouldn’t try. Or I just don’t care about it?
Pablo asked for a little intro about my set in the tie-up night with Robot Heart when I played the Mayan Warrior art car, so here we go:
Every night, when the Mayan Warrior art car leaves its camp on it’s way to the deep playa it feels pretty sublime, like a wake up call for the rave kids with this drum beats, like a ritual where they follow it’s spiritual leader, the warrior dancer follow their flagship art car, it’s getting more and more crowded, surrounded by hundreds of bikes and of course I’m super nervous entering this elevated Dj booth, shaking from the bass or is it just me? And from one moment to another I am in the middle of lasers and fire, I am taking over the booth and after a second I’ve forgotten every fear and just start playing...
