Given the honour of opening one of NZ's best kept little festivals, I wanted to pour my heart in to the 2 hours gifted to me. 
Combining some of my favourite tracks with a smattering of my own unreleased music this was a personal journey. 
I hope you enjoy listening to it it as much as I did making it.

Dj set @Relish Festival 2021

Crussen presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr.63 [KENTAUR SPECIAL]

Naki & Katy first caught the ears of Sunset Grooves with their wonderful sets in Tulum and Burning Man. A couple based out in New York who get inspired based on their surroundings and the places they travel to in the future. As a result they have put together an exceptional mix full of Brazilian vocals and South American influences as they plan their next trip to Brazil. This mix will get you warm in the inside as you travel with Naki & Katy on their South American musical journey. 

There is something very fresh and relaxing about this mix and just what your musical ears need for this first week of August. Take the time to check out their soundcloud page for their other mixes and keep an eye and ear out for this lovely couple as they tend to be behind the decks for the right place at the right time. 

Enjoy your Brazil trip!

Sunset Grooves Podcast 073- Naki & Katy

This mix is a soundtrack of sorts, inspired by a recent trip to Tulum, where all the artists that I love are wafting through the air at beachside  bars and restaurants in the jungle.  I hope it transports you to your own little jungle paradise in the Caribbean, sun on your skin, wind in your hair, and mezcal cocktail in your hand.  Enjoy, darlings!

My deepest gratitude to the artists on this mix, your creativity gives me such deep deeeeep happiness and inspiration, love you guys, un abrazo, thank you!!

Nômade Full Moon by NU
Set Recorded live at Nômade Tulum Beach under the full moon.

A nomad of modern times, who has travelled the continents with his music, Nu is as diverse in his musical styles as he is well-travelled. Taking influences from his various homes, the producer and trained sound engineer branched out into various genres. Through this years-long musical journey Nu then found his true calling: instrumentals amalgamated with his electronic production all held together through solid rhythms

Nômade Full Moon by NU

Nômade by NU: Full moon live @ Nômade Tulum

I like nature and music and I like deep dives into the depths of my own mind.

It’s becoming more and more obvious that my mind is really busy - way too busy. It is always exposed - constantly receiving and absorbing, processing and changing.

I have therefore become more cautious of what I want to let into consciousness and taking regular breaks from the endless stream of stimuli and simply paying close attention to my mind has helped me pierce through the spellbinding clutter of unstoppable thoughts. To me, what reveals itself on the other side is a profound state of
calm. A calm from which natural curiosity, playfulness and love can spring freely.

Music is a channel where I express this natural playfulness that I believe we all share deep inside. Playing my music on top of the Robot Heart bus at their ten year anniversary was one of those precious moments where I felt you were responding to this - we were playing together.

When you express a similar joy and playfulness to that which I create the music with we set a beautiful feedback loop into motion. Getting eye contact with you and seeing how me and my wobbly harmonica notes crack you up into a big smile affects me and really fires me up. 

Your response inspires me to create more and feel more and
express myself more. 

I would like to send a big fat virtual hug to everyone who rode their bikes deep out into the playa that morning and to Robot Heart for  making me part of the family.

If you by any chance feel the playfulness bubbling up inside of you - in any shape or form - please let me know, I would love to be in the loop with you. :)

3 QUESTIONS to LUIS ROSENBERG:

Q: Talking about your mix, your roots: how did these tracks have an impact on your later doings?

A: My father grew up in the 1960s and collected a lot of vinyls from this time. When I was young, he was often playing albums from Bob Dylan, Petty Smith, Frank Zappa, J.J. Cale etc. and translated the lyrics for me. I had to include at least one track of those artists because thats really where it all began. Following the tradition of my father I started to collect vinyls myself. In the beginning random things that had a nice cover and were pressed on vinyl and later on more hip hop and electronic stuff. I'm still listening to music from the 60s and 70s though and I guess this has some sort of an impact on my style. 

Q: Compared to the music you're now playing: would you still include one of these tracks in your current sets? 

A: The majority not, but some of them. When I prepared the set I found loads of cool tracks I have not listend to in ages. I'll definitely try to include them more often in future sets. 

Q: Which exciting Luis Rosenberg projects are coming this year?

A: I'm taking it a bit slower at the moment because I'm focusing on non-music related projects. However I am going to play at a couple of festivals and I'm especially looking forward to playing in Thailand for the first time later this year.

Few people asked me to make a music selection for Peace to uplift our spirit. In those dark days I found comfort in those guitars and hope in the Soul & Blues. 

Together we can transcend negative energies with the magical power of Music.
