This week on the RIPEcast, we are chilling things a bit with a beautiful sunrise mix from DJ and producer @VonFunkhauser. Enjoy! 

About VonFunkhauser:
Dj, Drummer, Producer, Engineer, former record store owner, Jay “VonFunkhauser” Cooper, spins tunes that often pay homage to the good ol’ days when disco and funk ruled the dance floor. Drawing inspiration from all styles and eras of dance music; funk, disco, soul, jazz, r&b, hip -hop, afro beat and all styles of house. Jay has been delivering music to the underground dance community for over 25 years. Bringing the analog and digital worlds together in perfect harmony: funky, uplifting, hypnotic, deep but dancable, whether in the club or in the lounge or on the playa, Jay's sets are meant to take you on a journey through time. Music that awakens the conscious, with an emphasis on seamless transitions, designed to keep you moving, onward and upward. Ear crafted mixes that push the boundaries of what dance music can be, not just synthesizers and drum machines,(though there’s plenty of that) but real people playing real instruments too. All locked together in a steady danceable groove.As a producer,  his releases on Kolour Recordings, Phat Farm Music and 10mm Omega have reached the top 20 on the Nu Disco charts, been featured in traxsource's  weekend weapons, and deep house essentials and been supported from Djs, Soul Minority, Oscar P, J&M Brothers, Rick Preston, Sleazy McQueen, John Howard and Alexander East. He also plays drums,  performs, produces and records with several other projects in the Charlotte NC area; Muchacho, Heart of a Ghost, Jason Herring and the Mystery Plan and a new project in the works, Midlife Niceness along with That Guy Smitty.

I'll be back at Halcyon opening for Low Steppa on November 17th - come dance with me!

Leyl Master Black Live at Halcyon (Tube & Berger Opening Set)

From Syd on this set: Opening night Monday was a time to start out with fun energy, some bangin' tech and bass house, and big tunes.  But, as the set went on, I wanted to set up Hoj, who was on after me, proper with a gradual slow down to some prettier melodic house and techno.  So this set plays like 2 sets, but hope you enjoy the playa range and the journey!

Opulent Temple Podcast #155 - Syd Gris - Live at Burning Man 2022

Lower your inhibitions for this particular excursion. Come away with DV to another land... where the heat is thick, where the fauna is lush, where the drums are abundant and gyrations are made with vigor.  Anticipate: organic tribal house, global tech, ethnic bass, diversity in tempo.  The only constant here is surprise - and palpable delight.
