Did they have pads to put between their bodies and the rock? Puffies? Adequate hydration/calories? Apologies if addressed and I missed it. Excellent interview. Thanks for sharing it!

Excellent episode! He was a great storyteller. Loved it

Mount Emerson is located in the Sierra Nevada in eastern California. It’s the 116th highest mountain in California. Christian and a friend set out to climb it and ended up spending an extremely cold and uncomfortable night out on the mountain side at 13,000 feet. Listen in to hear Christian’s learning from the unplanned bivvy.

(for those listening closely, two tracks were added)

These tracks guided me on my "dusty journey" at burning man 2022. It was a challenging experience because I chose to challenge myself. The title is also appropriate because the set takes you on a journey.  The set has ups & downs, just like my desert experience & our lives. 

These are the tracks I love- that move me from the inside out. I recorded a version of this set and played in my headphones during my quiet times on the playa. When I wanted to hear specific beautiful music that I couldn't find out there. When I rode around thinking about my life and the beauty and magic of the playa.  Whether happy, struggling, or needing comfort... these were my go-to. This was my playa soundtrack. 

They were comforting and imbued joy & hope in my heart and mind. This music grounded me while also lifting me up. 

This is the set I planned to play at Burningman if the opportunity presented itself. Tracks that transition from the darkness of the night to the first glow of light... to welcome in the new day. 

When I returned home and reflected on the experience, I opened a bottle of Champagne and let the music flow. (please forgive a couple sloppy levels/transitions... 2 bottles of Champagne aren't a performance enhancer)I didn't realize I played for 2.5hrs until the last track was finished. It was a beautiful experience & I hope you can hear the emotion in the music. It is from my heart.

Good Life

Playing this set at Burning Man 2023 was a truly unforgettable experience, and it happened on Thursday night, just before a wild storm hit. Playing for friends and fellow burners in the desert was an absolute joy, making the night before the rain even more extraordinary. We did not anticipate that we'd weather the storm for three days, but as it raged on, it created a unique sense of unity and resilience. When the sun finally pierced through the clouds, it felt like a genuine desert rebirth for all of us. 

I want to express my deep gratitude to @sabda-music-official for generously sharing his unreleased tracks with me; they added an enchanting dimension to the night. <3

"My goal with “Gangsta Gangsta” was to find an intersection point between Hip Hop and a style of electronic music that was a comprehensive representation of every element of the Dr. Fresch brand. I kept the track at 105BPM to preserve the integrity of Baby E’s verses (and the original of course), so my instrumental perspective became a crossbreed between slowed-down G-House and indie electro. I’m constantly finding inventive ways to inject hip hop into the realm of electronic music - I hope my fans buzz off this project as much as I have, so excited for this release!" - Dr. Fresch
