Maybe So, Maybe Yacht

Burning Man was nothing like I wanted it to be. All facts pointing it wasn’t my time to be there. No luck with tickets, close friends who would usually push me giving up, expensive and long flights.. etc. 
Facts aside, came to me an inner-voice so powerful I couldn’t help but to listen to it, and by August I finally started to plan. Less than a month to go, no tickets, no camp or tent or RV.. By that time it was also way too late to join most of the line-ups. I started to act as everything was set and done anyways: got my flights, spread the word, and slowly the stars started to align.

When at the “Burning Man that I wanted”, I didn’t see the friends I planned to see, I didn’t play the places I thought I could, I didn’t catch most of the events I wanted to. I just had the Burning Man that I needed, and it was a wild and freaking dusty one!!! Played only a few and special sets, had more time to explore amazing art, meet new beings, tighten up old friendships or get lost in the dust!

We were all there for a reason. In the immediate sense to see the “burning of the man”: a symbol of structure and government and judgment. And when the fire show started, all I could hear was exclamations of anger and pure wonder. In a grander sense, however, we were all there to expand our views, bodies, minds, and spirits, exploding like the flames in front of us into a rebirth!

What I gained from this experience was a greater understanding of the power of the collective, and that things happen exactly how they are supposed to. To trust the process and work together. Everyone in that desert did their part to build the city, to provide an experience for each soul that passed by. In this moment of fire and destruction, we used our power as one to build an energy field filled with creativity, love, and compassion.

If you ever look for endless inspiration, go to Burning Man ❤️

Very little can be written about our Astra Club Sunrise Set at Robot Heart during the Link with The Mayan Warrior.

Very little can be written… because of how much of it needed to be felt and lived.

After an almost 3 years of waiting to to return home; 3 years full of rollercoasters of emotions and challenges; we knew this moment captured on our set, would mark us for the years to come and we hope for those who were there and those at home now, are able to be taken by the music, the lights, the energy of the Desert and to once again be reassured that a Sunrise can never defeat the Night…. and that just like that “the dust of the stars” shaken by the Astra Club music dropped some magic on you.

Thank you @robotheartfoundation @burningmanproject for letting @carlita_music and I speak our language in the desert while the sun rose… And thank you to everybody who shared this moment with us. Otherworldly can’t even begin to describe this moment.

Our Robot Heart Burning Man Set is out now, available on SoundCloud, a little piece that gets to inhabit outside of our memories to keep creating more… Link in bio.

SNOW RAVEN - SUOR was born in one of the most remote and cold inhabited places in the world - the Republic of Sakha - Yakutia (arctic Siberia). She was three years old when she started to learn the language of birds and animals. Her voice takes its breath from traditional Sakha culture and is truly an instrument. She is the OG of “arctic beatbox” - the reindeer breath and the founder of OLOX, the NEOshamanic Portal to a Decentralized Humanity, Earth and Consciousness.

It was Friday Night, during the middle of my set at DISTRIKT, that the strongest sand storm of the year joins our party. An end-of-the-world scenery takes place on the dance floor, something straight out of a movie. As if a war was taking place. Dancing warriors sticked in embracing the heavy winds as some sort of ritual. My music gets deeper and deeper. The moment turned out epic… so we wanted to share with you a piece of it. Thanks Ben Seagren, Kramer & friends… It’s an honor to bring my sounds to my family at DISTRIKT.

Originally from Brazil and based in Canada, Hauy is an artist who operates in that rare, quiet space where emotion, craft, and intuition converge. With releases on labels like All Day I Dream, Get Physical Music, Warung Recordings, Tale & Tone, Hoomidaas, and Sounds of Khemit, his music travels gracefully between cultures and moods—melancholic yet hopeful, intricate yet human.

His sound has found its way into the hands of selectors like John Digweed, Hernán Cattáneo, Lee Burridge, Sebastien Léger, Joris Voorn, and Mira, to name a few, resonating across time zones and dance floors. As a performer, he’s been invited to bring his unique energy to stages such as Stereo Montreal, Akasha (Ibiza),  The Gardens Of Bablyon, Bahnwärter Thiel (Munich), D-Edge (São Paulo), Do Not Sit On The Furniture, SXM Festival, Burning Man, Electric Island, and the Spectrum Festival curated by Joris Voorn.

There’s a sense of restraint in how Hauy navigates the world—never in a rush to be seen, yet impossible to ignore. His DJ sets carry the same soulful attention to detail as his productions: cinematic, immersive, and textured with subtle emotion. His remix for Lazarusman is just one example of how he blends story, rhythm, and sensitivity into something that lingers long after the track ends.

Rather than chasing the spotlight, Hauy tends to the music itself—letting the work speak, evolve, and find its way. His eclecticism isn’t a performance; it’s a reflection of a life lived with curiosity, intention, and a good heart.
