Celebrating 1 year of live streaming sessions since the pandemic, the Santa Cruz DJ Sessions crew threw an epic three-day affair that I had the pleasure of playing at. This set was at 2pm on Sunday and I decided to hearken back to pool and beach party vibes with a collection of midtempo funky tunes and some drum & bass for good measure.

This is a quick moment in time were we had a break from COVID-19. We hit the club where everyone felt vaccinated and safe, no known variants were in our midst. I felt every note of the tracks I played that night deep in my soul and blasted out through the speakers. Replaying this set will allow you to experience a taste of what I was feeling that night, freedom, liberation, movement, joy, excitement, love, honor, pleasure.

Well whaddaya know? Like finding that favorite album tucked away in a nook, we discovered we still have more amazing BoC recordings to share! This is a driving, get you going, butt off the chair mix from our very own WorkR. Let's goooooo!

Here's what WorkR had to say about the mix: "I was beyond excited to play Breakfast of Champions again in person after our long lockdown break of virtual events. I played early in the day, basking in the sunlight and the vibe of the crowd. What a great way to start the new year."

Eric Riggsbee LIVE at BOTTLEROCK in Napa, California Sunday May 29th, 2022

Continuing our series of live recordings from the Unison Campout, this week, we are welcoming the debut of Bay Area DJ D2 (@denisemartin76) with a slamming poolside breaks set!

Here's what D2 had to say: "I'm an old school breakbeat junkie, a drum head and this mix captures everything that makes me want to shake my ass and I hope you'll want to do the same. "

About D2:
D2 has toured the world as a drummer playing almost every style of music.
When the pandemic put a pause on her gigs, she decided to give the decks a spin and see if they would provide the musical fix her soul needed. They did. 
She’s just getting started but excited to keep making booties shake for years to come.

Although we've started releasing Unison 5 sets, we still have a stockpile of Unison 4 recordings as well and we need to share them! This week, we are featuring our very own Space Cowboy, kev/null (@kevnull). He's also simultaneously released his Unison 5 set on his soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/kevnull/elections2020

Here's what he had to say about his Unison 4 set:
"An unexpected part of playing live streaming is learning a whole new skillset around visuals. For this set, I decided to try to try and do projection mapping onto the back of my house and combine it with a fun upbeat breaks set with a ton of great new music. I hope you enjoy it!
