Torie’s sound is multifaceted – to say the least. Coming from a global upbringing and current home base in the San Francisco Bay Area, she has been curating sonic adventures as a DJ and event producer for a decade. Torie interweaves elements of breakbeats, house, minimal, dark & driving techno, garage, acid, and drum and bass – balancing a line between heavy-hitting basslines and soulful vocals with ear-catching melodies.

She believes in the power of groove and always plays with one core intention in mind: to bring newfound life to the dancefloor.

– (she lives by the ethos of "i'm just here to play music & do cool shit with my friends").

As a core lead of Inquiry Collective and Inquiry Records, a builder & maker with Burning Man art cars ICARUS and Dusty Rhino, a resident DJ of You’re Welcome SF, and a co-founder of Dance With Haha, Torie draws inspiration from the dusty plains of the playa, the curious explorations of the Mojave desert, the underground dancefloors of SF, & the interstellar endeavors of ICARUS & its motley crew.

Torie has performed with KiNK, Superflu, Justin Martin, Overmono, Maya Jane Coles, Smilk, Anja Schneider, Tale of Us, Patrice Baumel, Marbs, Mikey Lion, Porky and Evan Casey, Rinzen, Dance Spirit, Eskuche, Marques Wyatt, Tycho, KMLN, Sabo, Justin Jay, Hoj, Kevin Knapp, Shiba San, Joeski and more. 

You may have also seen her with renowned crews like Space Cowboys, Distrikt, Ego Trip, and Desert Hearts – at the annual Breakfast of Champions block party on New Year’s Day for six consecutive years – or on the festival circuit at events including Lightning in a Bottle, Outside Lands, EDC Las Vegas, Northern Nights, Desert Hearts, The Untz Festival, Umbrella Weekend, Enigma, and Outside in Equinox. 

In 2025, you can find Torie throwing renegades and pop-ups with the Inquiry crew across California in clubs, deserts, undisclosed locations and beyond… as well as performing in SF, SD, Reno, LA and more.

Meet Patricio, the musical ninja who's been spinning tunes since the days when Walkmans were cool and mixtapes were currency.  Hailing from Buenos Aires, his passionate love affair for beats started in '92 and hasn't slowed down since. His music isn't just a genre—it's a rollercoaster of sound: deep, driving, fun, and fueled with the energy to make your soul dance out of your body.

Patricio's sets? They're like marathons, they can outlast an eight-hour workday.                                                                                    As the sonic architect at the JUNKYARD STAGE @ THE LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE FESTIVAL, he creates vibes so good, they're magnetic with a magical atmosphere.  You go there to meet friends for a beer and end up lost in rhythm for hours.

Teaming up with his partner in crime, Shawni, they birthed THE SPACE IN BETWEEN, a city soirée that's a slice of The Junkyard stage heaven, championing local talent while making you groove and using sound not only as a movement catalyst but as a healing tool.

This musical maestro not only has been rocking the west coast and beyond, hitting up festivals like Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, Symbiosis, LIB and more but he's notorious for dropping puns so 'bad,' they're legendary. If there's an underground party in L.A., you bet Patricio's turning it into a dance frenzy. And when he's not making you move on the dance floor, he's cooking up studio beats that'll have your feet begging for mercy."Trust me, It’s science!!

I'm not a producer, a promoter, or a DJ. I do not host a blog, podcast, radio show, or YouTube channel.

What I do is dance daily with a few friends… we track our dancing using a fitness app (which could really use a dance culture, jus say'n). I do what I can to promote sets that move me, especially with catchy art. Anyone wishing to dance with us is welcome to join… any age… #heartsdance

I simply enjoy listening to music I've never heard before and I love to dance. Thus, I'm drawn to all types of dance music. It amazes me that the producer/computer collaboration is able to bring forth unique sounds that can be stunningly beautiful, insanely experimental or somewhere in between, or something entirely different.
