Man Burn. Madness. Carnaval. This time Geju meet their alter ego BoB&Roses who plays “Dichka” stuff — trippy but at the same time very hooligan and killing grooves.

"We are so grateful to the Mayan Warrior family for having us at their Tulum fundraiser this year.
This event is beautiful because it allows us to connect, vibe, and dance around the most powerful tool for change, growth, and connection, which is MUSIC.

Doyeq - Mayan Warrior - Tulum 2024

“4 years ago I went to Mayan Warrior, Tulum to dance & explore. I remember the excitement on the dance floor, the respect for the music, the art, the lights & the attention to every little details. I was fully inspired.

This year I wanted to do the same. I’d just finished two long weeks of touring and wanted to have a good dance with friends.
Everything fell into place when the Mayan crew reached out and told me there was an open slot for me to play. I so excited and jumped right in. It's the kind of event where you don't need to think about what to play, you just feel it.

I didn't plan on releasing the set but, as we celebrate life in the dance floor like we always do, it felt right to share it.”

“Reflecting on five incredible years with Mayan Warrior,
A cornerstone of the electronic music scene of our generation. Every set is a cherished experience of unity and expression. Gratitude to the beats, the dancefloor, and the shared passion that defines us. Here's to Mayan Warrior.”

Maga - Mayan Warrior - Tulum 2024

I was thinking about all the long waits in line for Burning Man tickets over the years and decided to give some of you something to listen to while the walking person icon slowly makes its way across the screen holding all our hopes in its little tiny pixel hands. 

The wait time  is usually about as long as it took to get from one side of the playa to the other last year after it rained and the playa shrimp rose up to attempt to take over the world!! 

Burning Mud. Mudding man. Raining man. Remember the wild stories (all from the outside media or Diplo and Chris Rock) vs the kindness and generosity of strangers out on the playa. I hope, even if faced with adversity last year, maybe, just maybe, you also saw how wonderful people can be when called upon in a ‘crisis’. 

I was lucky enough to stay until Tuesday night and grateful to still get to play a sunrise on the Robot Heart albeit a few days later than planned. There was so much love in the air that (finally) beautiful morning. If you missed it or want to listen once more or are just bored and looking for something to distract you while waiting in line for this years tickets (I’ll be waiting too) then here’s burning man/mud/magic 2023.  Feel the love in the air and the tickle of playa shrimp on the soles of your feet.

Burning Man 2024 - Thurs. 2:30am @ Soundgarden
Wow - this was a really special night. So many incredible dancers beautifully and enthusiastically expressing to my set. Behold 2 hours of unplanned and spontaneously DJ'd deep melodic beauty, uplifting global vibes and transcendent joy.  

As an exploration of world music this house mix spans many continents and cultures, one whose coda ultimately concludes with two remixes that, while they were somewhat a deviation from the theme of global sounds, they perfectly summed up the collective heartspace of those deeply vibing wee hours at Burning Man. 

Massive thanks to Mark Duncan and crew at Soundgarden (2:00/Gobsmack) for creating an exemplary space for music and the movement community.

Burning Man 2024 @ Project Awake

A moment we’ll never forget. The energy was surreal, the horizon painted in light, and we all felt this deep connection between the music, the dust, and the people. It was pure magic.

Thank you Maxa & Bipolar Express family for making this happen!'

I’m beyond thrilled to share my *Sunrise Set from Burning Man 2024* aboard the incredible @maxacamp ARTCAR. 🌅

Returning to the Maxa ARTCAR for another sunrise was a deeply meaningful moment for me. There's something truly special about these moments, as the playa brings the magic to life.

A heartfelt thank you to the Maxa team once again for creating unforgettable memories we all share together. 💛

RUFUS DU SOL - Burning Man 2024

Dear friends, I'm grateful to share with you the recording of a morning session I had the pleasure to DJ on the cutest art car, Lucy S Cargo the colourful Sonic Snail 🌈  after sunrise on Friday AM at Burning Man 2024.

It was a sunny Friday morning on this love planet, smiling and taking life as it comes, lightly and playfully. 

I was so glad to DJ alongside @christianvoldstad and after my brother @dextercrowe who was soundtracking his first sunrise session on the playa so beautifully! I recommend you start with his set so you can hear the earlier chapter of this sunrise journey.  

Gratitude & Mettā - May the light of this moment be shared with all beings who need it.   ❤️ 

---
Special thanks: 

Thank you Christian, Piotr and the whole Preservation Society Team who invited us to play on this art car on Friday AM.

Thanks to my Burn partners troopers legends Elise & Dexter for being the best adventure family ever. You guys kept smiling even in the hardest moments.   

Thanks to our special camp Gravity for welcoming us with open arms, we felt home from the first minute and this community feeling is truly what Burning Man is all about.   Thank you to everyone who invited me to play music for their camp, truly a blessing to share music in such a magical opened minded landscape! 

Thank you Burning Man & thank you to all the humans past and present who co-created this crazy experience of collective magic in this love city. 🔨 ❤️ 

Thanks to Patrice 'Shaker Brother' for playing percussions with me on the later part of the set.

Thanks to Luis Azmouz for the drone images.  

Thanks to the artist who created this Deer Bunny ! If you know who it is, please let me me know :) 

& most importantly, thanks to all of you for being here and listening to this mix!

Much love! 

Mik

E P I C SET ALERT!!

We have been working with the duo Chambord for quite some years but goodness they sure have landed in the perfect sound and vibe. We are obsessed with their own productions and track selection that perfectly launches our audience into pure madness. It was absolutely one of our favourite sets of the Night Sky events and for sure we want them back on our stage this year.

WOW! Bravo guys, you are simply amazing.
We love you!!!!

You do to? Show it in the comments below, like and share this set for support.

Chambord - The Nightsky Celebration 2024

To play the closing before the daytime break at Turmbühne on Saturday morning was such a bliss and all my nervosity was blown away from the excitement to play one of my fav stages at Fusion Festival. Especially after 15 years of visiting, dancing, taking days of for my ravecation, strolling around, getting lost, meeting new people, reuniting with friends from all over the world, discovering new artists I'm so honored to have finally played the mother of all stages there. Probably the best dancefloor on the planet.

1️⃣ How this mix came together 🎚️✨

I started with a compatibility graph where every node is a track and every edge means these two are compatible (matching key, vibe & BPM - a blend of the Camelot wheel and personal intuition).

Then I had three constraints:
• keep the whole set locked at 110 BPM
• make sure every must-play track appears in order
• allow for optional tracks that can be added in, while still respecting the compatibility graph

2️⃣ Then I wrote a python script to help with coming up with the final track list

Here is what the script does:

• Core path: For each consecutive pair of must-play tracks the script calls nx.shortest_path with weight=None, which runs bidirectional BFS to find the minimum-hop route between the pair. The routes are concatenated to form one chain that contains every core track in order and only harmonic transitions.
• Optional insertion: The script then scans that chain once from left to right. Whenever an optional track connects to both tracks bordering a gap, it inserts the optional there and labels it “optional,” using the first valid slot it finds for each optional track.

```
import networkx as nx

# 1) build the graph
graph = nx.Graph()
edges = [
    ("Ludo", "Mahoya"), ("Mahoya", "Schleudertrauma"),
    ("Schleudertrauma", "Cheetah"), ("Cheetah", "Wave"),
    ("Wave", "Tanzanite"), ("Tanzanite", "Back to My Roots"),
    ("Back to My Roots", "Back to Black"), ("Back to Black", "Black Diamond"),
    ("Black Diamond", "Shadow Is Blue"), ("Shadow Is Blue", "Hesperides"),
  # etc.
]

graph.add_edges_from(edges)

# 2) declare core and optional tracks
core = ["Ludo", "Mahoya", "Schleudertrauma", "Tanzanite",
        "Back to My Roots", "Back to Black", "Black Diamond",
        "Hesperides", "Akela", "Optimistique-moi"]

optional = ["Cheetah", "Wave", "Slow Ravers", "Things in My Head",
            "Shadow Is Blue", "Voice of Tulum"]

# 3) create the shortest list that covers every core track
path = []
cursor = core[0]
for target in core[1:]:
    path += nx.shortest_path(G, cursor, target)[1:]
    cursor = target

# 4) insert optionals if they lie on a legal edge
for node in optional:
    for i in range(len(path) - 1):
        a, b = path[i], path[i + 1]
        if G.has_edge(a, node) and G.has_edge(node, b):
            path.insert(i + 1, f"{node} (optional)")
            break

print(" → ".join(path))
```

The output gives a ready-to-play order with any optional track tagged “(optional).” Whether an optional track is played, or not, the transitions are still harmonic.

3️⃣ Played tracks

• Temple Tears – Ludo (Original Mix)
• Eternal Moment – Mahoya (Kuako Remix)
• PATH* – Schleudertrauma (Original Mix)
• Thommie G – Tanzanite (Hvitling Remix)
• Don Son – Back to My Roots (Kapoor & fernn Remix)
• Pavel Petrov, VALL – Back to Black (Original Mix)
• Demetrius – Black Diamonds (Tony Casanova Remix)
• Haris Kate – Hesperides Garden (Rabih Rizk Remix)
• Moullinex - Darkest Night (Xinobi Remix)
• Kuako – Akela (Original Mix)
• Mylène Farmer – Optimistique-moi (Zafir Remix)

All tracks pitched to 110 BPM, only harmonic mixing, and the algorithm keeps the path legal even when the optionals are ignored.

As we head toward our first sunrise on playa this year, we’re excited to share the last sunrise set of BM24. 🌅🎼

In Vanjee’s own words:

As we get closer to Burn 2025, I’m beyond excited to finally share something truly special with you: my sunrise set from Robot Heart at Burning Man 2024. ❤️‍🔥

This one was a long time in the making with the incredible Robot Heart crew, and I’m so grateful to release it into the world. I hope it brings you back to that magical morning, or transports you there if you weren’t with us.

Much love, and hopefully I’ll see you deep in the dust this year.

Vanjee - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2024

"Normally I know that high expectations kill the vibe, so I always try to walk my way open minded and don’t expect anything special from the future, but this time I couldn’t help it. When the Robot told me that she wanted me to play the sunrise set and that we will be connected with the Mayan Warrior soundsystem, I could feel it already in Berlin a full three weeks before… Then when I finally took the bus over to Robot Heart it was even better than in my craziest expectations. This gig was by far the most emotional gig I have ever played. All I can say is thank you, I am even more happy now to be born on this weird planet which can be really beautiful sometimes, when you give it  chance to be free. Thank you you for dancing with me and giving me so much Love. So here is my try to give something back.

(This set includes only sounds, samples, synths, basses, pianos, vocals and lyrics which are created, recorded and arranged by Jan Blomqvist, Felix Lehman & Ryan Mathiesen. Except the vocals at Dancing People are never wrong and one tiny vocal sample in the last track, you'll recognize it)"

Art piece: Awakening

www.facebook.com/AwakeningBurningMan2016

The human body is the most highly engineered object in existence, a machine of uncountable parts and unfathomable function. Its workings have served as inspiration for all of humanity's greatest inventions. This work is an homage to the two most amazing mechanisms in that machine: the human eye and hand. The head is a 16 foot camera obscura demonstrating the ray optics principals underlying the spherical lensed eye humans posses and the hands are actuated mimicking the tendons and bones of the body. Together they represent what separates life from the rest of the universe, the ability to observe the world around us and manifest change in that world.

Thank you to all the beautiful dancers and generous characters who made our first burn what it was. Opulent Temple, Robot Heart, dolab and every other collective who hustled out there to make the city thrive - we love you folks. We’re little older and a touch wiser for the experience. We will be back ♥
