this is a part where i stop whatever i'm doing and dance

The concept was a simple one ... One DJ, One Room, All Night in exceptional surroundings with jaw-dropping visuals (installations, performance etc), decor, and sound all combining to create a unique, fully immersive experience all based around an extraordinary, one-off musical journey.

A big driver of this passion was the simple notion that when it comes to DJaying, it's all about the context - how you set moments up, how you create curves in your sets, of the peaks and the troughs, the deliberate breathers, the space to listen, to move, to engage with the sounds on a deeper level. It's how you present a track that makes it grow, that makes it hit home much harder than it could ever do in isolation. If we lose those skills, and people become disassociated with the concept of movement and context in a set, we wind up with what we're edging ever closer towards - a monochrome landscape of brick wall noise where there's no scope for growth, for exploration, for creativity.

Electronic music with heart and soul.

THE ONE SERIES MIXES

Evil Nine are an English DJ/Producer duo comprising of members Tom Beaufoy and Patrick Pardy. Gaining recognition after signing to Adam Freelands label Marine Parade in the early 2000's their unique sound gathered a high following and had a very influential effect in the early Nuskool Breaks scene as well as early influences on the later Tech Funk genre.

This mix is from 2004 was made for Australia's Triple J Radio and it's Saturday night weekly show Mix Up.

Evil Nine - Triple J Mix Up - 2.10.2004

The One Series is something special. Based around the simple concept of One DJ, One Room, All Night, it's a properly personal, musical journey, shared amongst friends, and a chance for DJ, VJ & crowd to fuel each other ... a chance to experience something magical, exceptional.

This, the 12th in the series, was sold out in advance, and a packed Gingerbread House in San Francisco was utterly transformed by the wonderful visuals from Howie Wong and the AllOfItNow crew, with stage design by Mad Dog Madigan.

Bring on the next One.

Come join Rave Legends Rabbit in the Moon as they give you a glimpse into the inner sanctum of an Insomniac After Hours....

RABBIT RADIO EPISODE ONE

This set has been in development for a long time. Originally arranged for 2024 campout season, it was shelved for nearly a year. More tracks were acquired and integrated in 2025, abd a bunch that were originally in didn't make the final cut. I've been taking some time off from DJing while learning to play guitar and pursue other creative outlets, but I felt the inspiration to dust off the decks and finally get this set finished. I'm pleased with how it turned out and I hope you enjoy it! If you do, drop a <3, repost and follow me. I'll try to not let an entire year go by before the next recording gets published! 

Straight from Oakland

RIPEcast Guest Mix DJ Dan

I started making this mix series 11 years ago to celebrate my birthday and DJ anniversary.  After a short break, I am pleased to bring the tradition back to life with Twenty-Two, celebrating my 50th birthday and 22 years of DJing. I usually set a lot of rules for programming these studio mixes but I let that all go for this mix and just chose what moved me. I hope it moves you too! I found the album cover quite fitting, which was taken at my 40th at the first ShOOnanigans 10 years ago! 

I am excited to celebrate my 50th at Public Works SF on Sat 7/19! We have one of my favorite producers, Aylen, headlining along with special guests and my long-time friends Dulce Vita (Opulent Temple), Haute Mess (Brass Tax), and Nugz (Dusty Rhino). Space Cowboys DJs 8ball, Deckard, gLover, Kapt'n Kirk, Leyl Master Black, Rumblemunk, and your truly, will be shaking up the club on both floors and Maculate and Vizual Nektar will be on visuals!

Skip the FOMO, and get your tickets today!

Gavin Hardkiss DJ Set | Shambhala '25 Living Room Stage

Born out of my 2024 Breakfast of Champions (Reconstructed) set in San Francisco - a mix that’s had 27k plays and over 260 glowing comments on SoundCloud - Bell Tolls has now been rebuilt into a full-length Revamped track.

🎶 FREE DOWNLOAD is now available exclusively in my Discord:
👉 https://discord.gg/5GaPYNeejS

Revamped began life as a series of reworks that dominated the Beatport Breaks charts and picked up Best Breaks Track of the Year. This new chapter continues that legacy - widescreen, breakbeat-driven, built for peak-time pressure.

Bell Tolls (Revamped) - FREE DOWNLOAD

The first in a new series of spontaneous Pop-Up DJ sets – recorded live in Cheesman Park, Denver.

A fusion of Simon Shackleton & Elite Force styles, blending cinematic grooves with dancefloor energy. The sun was shining, the beats were flowing, and this set captures the raw, human spirit of the moment.

Simon Shackleton, Elite Force - Pop-Up Set - Cheesman Park, Denver - 2025-09-28

My set for John Digweed's Transitions podcast.

Adam Freeland - Transitions

Well, that was quite something.

Recovery mode has been initiated and rejuvenation is now complete. I just wanted to say a HUGE heartfelt thank you to every single one of you that came down, felt and shared the heart emoticon and made Saturday's One Series *such* a massive high.

I'd also like to thank The Public Works SF for being a joy to work with, Kevin Zhu from All of it Now for the stunning visual accompaniment, and Mad Dog from the beautiful steampunk stage design.

Let's do it again. Soon!

The One Series [SFO017] - Simon Shackleton - Publicworks San Francisco

The 18th One Series took place in Denver at a brand new annexe to City Hall.

We overcame one or two technical issues with ground loops & power outages in the early stages of the night, but triumphed thanks to all the hundreds of beaming souls who came out to play and made for such an impassioned evening.

A big thank you goes out to all the lighting & sound wizz-kids, and of course my good friends 'Surreal Laser' and 'The Fantastic Hosts'.

Where should I host The One next??

The One Series  [DEN018] - Simon Shackleton - Outpost One, Denver

Another stunning night at Publicworks on the back of *that* election result. I deliberately kept things upbeat and optimistic, which made for one of THE most fun sets I've ever played.

A HUGE heartfelt thank you to every single one of you that came down, felt and shared the love and made this One Series *such* a massive high.

I'd also like to thank PublicWorks and Peter Blick for being a joy to work with, Kevin Zhu from All of it Now for the stunning visual treats, and Mad Dog from the beautiful inter-galactic stage design.

The One Series [SFO020] - Simon Shackleton - Publicworks San Francisco

A low key return to the UK with my only One Series show of the UK in my home country. This was a beautiful, heads down session at the end of a tough year.

The One Series [MAN021] - Simon Shackleton - Joshua Brooks, Manchester

This was the final One Series show in a 5-year run of events that began at Cellspace in San Francisco back in 2012. 

These sets gave me a much-needed chance to breathe and to branch out from the peaktime headline shows I'd been playing for many years. They allowed me time to spread my wings musically and explore different tempos and different flavours and tell a story from cover to cover. They inspired me and kept me going at a time when I was deeply disillusioned by electronic music's move into the bubblegum candy-pop of the supersized McRave. 

I believe that music has the power to affect people deeply and that it can be felt on a spiritual level, and during these sets I always felt that connection profoundly. I'm proud of what I achieved with them and that a beautiful legacy remains.

This particular set had to be reconstructed from 2/3rds of the way through as the recorder malfunctioned, but I didn't want to leave the Final One unarchived, so here it is in all of it's 6-hours of glory.

Much love and a massive thank you to all the thousands of people who have supported me in this journey.
xoxo
