Nel Mix August 2023

This was my first ever Burning Man experience. I am in fact still trying to find the right words to describe my experience there. 
Moreover the Robot Heart performance. But sometimes music really shouldn't be described with words. At least in my position being an artist & composer. 
So thank you that this magical journey of mine was recorded!
It was quite something to be on top of that bus as the burners rode in on their bikes. And when the bus took off watching everyone jump right back on their bikes and follow the bus in what I can only call a ‘mass exodus’ onto the playa. I decided to dig deep into my old productions and new and some of my favourite journey tracks for this mix.
Thank you, big hug and love to all who joined in and danced along, and to Camp David, Robot Heart & Jonny for getting me involved.
I hope to be a part of this again. Either way, I’ll See you again next year for sure!
 
-Volta.

Eric Volta -  Robot Heart - Burning Man 2014

This is Africa's Burning Man...the event is held in the Karoo desert, where about 10 000 people share a unique experience

Few words can explain the AfrikaBurn experience. I still need time to reflect on what just happened the past week and bring feelings to words...

A massive thanks to a great family of friends for such special moments... as well as Michael Kennedy and his team for a mammoth effort of bringing  "The Spirit Train " to life and trucking 5 coaches and a tractor through a tough terrain into the desert ! Well done guys, everyone appreciated the great line ups and no doubt was one of the most popular at Afrikaburn.

Until AfrikaBurn 2016

La Granja Ibiza: Invierno Luna De Plata

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert … Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

– Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Art piece: Mechan 9 

Mechan 9 is the newest creation from Tyler FuQua Creations.  It is a giant fallen metal robot that is half-buried in the ground.  Over thirty five feet in diameter and six feet tall at his heart chamber, Mechan 9 is shrouded in mystery!  Decode the strange text on his body to reveal the secrets of not only his past, but of the universe as well.  Mechan 9 was built by an amazing crew and with the help of a Burning Man art grant in 2016 where it made its debut.

PLAYLOVE Holzmarkt Opening 01MAY17 Katerblau Hopper Floor

This week at Afrikaburn is hard to put into words.. so many new friends, unforgettable moments and great music.. It really is more of an experience than a festival.
I will never forget those magical days in the desert - Thank you to the whole Hauptbahnhof Family for being such amazing human beings <3

This is the set I played on Saturday evening for sunset at our little station.. and as so often at Afrikaburn, things turned out a little different than expected. In the second half of my set, a fireranger came up to the DJ-booth and told me to stop the music because of a silent burn that was going to happen at the Temple of Gratitude. But although the set isn't "finished" as it was intended, I still wanted to share those 100 minutes with you. I hope you enjoy!

A Sunset at AfrikaBurn - Hauptbahnhof 2017

Hey Burners,

this year was a tough one. A lot of people got sick.. less art but many big soundsystems and stages loaded with masculin energy. In my opinion most of them failed to really create a vibe, to bring in some love. The whole burn seemed like a proper full on rave. Why does it always need to be so big? Why so over-ambitious? Make it small, cosy, welcoming with a soul.. The music was very forward, bigroom, techno or trance heavy. Not so inspiring to me. I dont think ill be back in Tankwa anytime soon. So this is also a bit of goodbye music for all these wonderful souls that we’ve met onto this big journey that started here with a lighthouse over two years ago. Its a compilation of the tracks that i’ve played at my gigs this year, mostly the owl on friday and hauptbahnhof on tuesday.

enjoy

I have no words for the feeling that night at at Afrika Burn gave me. A deep gratitude overcame me when I realized what the dance floor had been evolving to during the set and a profund tribal feeling overcame me when I saw what is possible to create when people work together with a similar vision of creativity and love. The Spirit Train and Hauptbahnhof Crew are the people that brought me to AfrikaBurn for the first time last year, thank you millions of times for giving me that honor to perform again for you guys and the brilliant idea of connecting both sound systems together. I had again the best gig of my life (to me)at  the best party in the world I could ever have imagined.;) Thank you!!!

Sunrise Set @AfriKaBurn 2017 (Ubuhlanti Stage)

Ehm… Wooow wow and uffff…  Back home from Afrikaburn - that was something really really really special. I met so many lovely people and beautiful souls, made new friends, digital friends became real ones, discovered sweet and creative ideas at every corner, got surprised over and over again… Expectations were built up and broken down to experience something else and unexpected… And just when I thought I learned my lesson about having expectations about whatsoever or taking anything for "granted" I checked the recordings of the sets I played down there in the desert, to decide which one I would like to upload and share with you, I had to realize that I fucked it up and all of them have the shittiest recording quality ever… Hahahaha, ohhh man…  So what can you do? Well - I decided to figure out the playlist of my sunset-set at Everland and just record it once more here back home… Hope you'll enjoy it anyways…

The tired desert sun broke it´s rays in the cruising dust, strangely beautiful figures appeared and these were the tunes we figured could contribute for the hours to come ✺ Thank you to the whole Dancin' On The Ceilin' crew for creating this wonderful shelter. And thanks to all the dreamers out there dancing with us. Hope to see you all again! Special thank you message goes out to the whole VIBE TRIBE crew!

After a last minute decision to buy an Afrikaburn ticket I had the privilege to join the amazing Hauptbahnhof crew. It's funny what almost three weeks of dessert can do with a group. First strangers, now part of the family. It were definetly 3 weeks to never forget <3 Hopebahnhof.

Now back and almost dust free I finally managed the get part of my recording dust free as well. 
Here a small part of the set I played on Wednesday. Bugs ate the rest. Hope you guys enjoy it as much as some random senior citizens in a wicked artcar. Haha most random morning ever. 

All the loves.

"It was one of my highlights at Burning Man 2016 
when i had the chance to play at the White Ocean Camp again....
During my set i saw a lot of people joining us started dancing some with closed eyes
and a lot of hugs were going around...
The sound was even better than the year before and i couldn't believe that my set time was almost over when someone came and told me that i have 10 minutes left, ... 
pretty much always a good sign ;-)
