Origin Festival sets the benchmark for what a Psychedlic Festival in South Africa could and should be. 20 years old and yet somehow, always getting better. This festival has brought me nothing but wonderful memories over the years and this edition was the best of them yet. 🙌

Grateful to be a part of the family and honourted to be included every year. Hope you enjoy the set and relive the magic of that Friday night.  Share if you care and big love for listening.  ♥️

Origin Festival 20 Years (2024)

‘Alligator Man' is as wacky as it sounds. A Floridian funk bomb that drinks too much, sleeps too little but has the perfect amount of fun. Life’s intense so live a little, take it easy and enjoy the ‘Alligator man’.

Origin Festival is one of my favorite Festivals period, both to perform at and enjoy as a festival goer. I apologise for this long wait on getting this up online but the mix as always contained some unreleased goodies that needed approval first. 

Hope you enjoy. Please share if you care.  1 <3
