Dragon Dreaming Festival 2022
Lake Burrinjuck, Wee Jasper, NSW, Australia
~~
˚ 140 - 147bpm
˚ Mainstage - Saturday Night ▼ 9pm - 10.30pm
˚ Early evening pump up, strong prog, powerful duggs

I am very proud and excited to share a recording of my set from the long-awaited return of Dragon Dreaming Festival 🐉

I had the honour of commencing the psytrance session on Saturday evening, Main Stage. This set is not so much a bridge (between artists Kase Kochen and Megapixel), however, it is what I consider to be a nice build into the night psy session.

Massive love and respect for Regen and Dragon Dreaming for hosting one of the most beautiful festivals in Australia. I am beyond flattered and grateful to be a part of this family. I look forward to our future ❤

Volkiene @ Dragon Dreaming 2022 - Main Floor - Australia

~ November 2022 ~
A special mix paying homage to Sisyphos and my recent European adventures.
~~
◂ 128 - 132 bpm
◂ Psytech > Groovy > Driving
~~
Earlier this year (2022) I had the privilege to play at one of the most renowned clubs in Berlin - 'Sisyphos'. Alongside a collective of Aussie artists from Stone Seed, Sixth Sense and Church of Techno, we held down the Tunnel Floor for an all-day Aussie takeover. 

I visited the club two weekends in a row, once as an artist, and once as a punter. My experiences inside this space are unforgettable and completely changed my perception of what I thought a club could offer.

Unfortunately, on the day I played the Tunnel Floor, I did not record my set. Nor is this a re-recording of that set, however, I thought it would be cool to create a mix inspired by my recent experiences in Europe and Sisyphos alike. This mix showcases some Psytech and approachable driving techno between 128 - 132bpm.

I want to express genuine gratitude and appreciation for all of the new friends and connections I made during my travels. I am eternally thankful to have had the opportunity to cross paths with you all. 

I will see you again in 2023, until then, big love and respect from down under. Peace

Vorpal - Sisyphos Mix - 2022

Twisted Frequency Festival 2022/23 
Upper Takaka, Golden Bay, New Zealand.
~~
142 - 150bpm
Moko Moko stage (aka. main stage)
A short, powerful, 1-hour journey transitioning between Progressive, Full on and Forest. 
~~
The flow went like this:

> Azrin (Zenon)
> Volkiene (independant)
> Ektomorph (Vantara Vichitra Records)
> Algormorph (Defiant Force Records)

~~
Considering the time of the evening and the flow, I thought it was fitting to bring the vibe up a bit and pump some high-energy tracks into the session. I also felt it was my duty to showcase a tasteful amount of full-on within my set to tribute the array of psytrance within the session.
