It has been quite some time since the last time we gathered for a night of MBTS. I wanted to take some time after the pandemic to be quiet and see how the dance music scene would evolve, and what sounds would come out of the standstill that was Covid. Now that I have a good sense of where I want to be sonically, and what kind of energy I want to spread onto dance floors, I am ready to restart MBTS in 2023. Stay tuned for more info, and enjoy this preview of what's to come.

Much love, 
The Scumfrog

M.B.T.S. (Most Below The Surface) 2023

Following our good friend Lee Burridge past the sunset and well into the day as sandstorms whipped past us in the background we stood amongst friends and strangers (who are just friends we’ve yet to meet) and we danced and celebrated together, participating in the beauty of a shared moment that can only be held in our memories as a mere shadow of what we truly experienced… What an honor to be part of it all. A big thank you to everyone who helped make that moment happen.

Thugfucker - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2014

Something a little different for ya.  Me at my moodiest.  In more recent years I apply tags to my tracks of different vibes so that I can organize my massive music collection better.  One of the biggest categories is 'Moody.'  

Of course a lot of people going out on Friday and Saturday night to my gigs are out to celebrate, so this category doesn't get as much play live as more funky upbeat rhythms.  As such it's somewhat underrepresented on my Soundcloud.

Well not anymore :). I'm dedicated to releasing more sets this year and I see this one as the start of a series.  Welcome to Ben Annand Moody AF :). 

The opener of this series is an opening set I played on a Sunday night from 9-11pm. It's actually just the first hour, 9-10.  It's ok to be moody when people are settling in :). It was also November just after the time change and loss of light... the beginning of the moody season in Eugene :)

An opening set is always interesting musically (or should be) because you get to start from scratch, and set the tone for the whole night.  So it's always a set that should be played with intention.

In this particular case, I was in a sensitive space because I had taken some really nasty criticism from the organizer of an event recently before.  I won't go into detail but it was very tactlessly and cruelly delivered.  So of course that affected my headspace both in terms of insecurity, and in terms of wanting to deliver a great set since I didn't entirely disagree with the criticism so much as I was hurt by the tone from a supposed friend.

So why am I telling you this?  Because this set is moody as fuck!  It opens with a lush vocal track that really spoke to me when my marriage suddenly went up into smoke. I find this track really intense so I haven't played it much but at home.   

The mix stays deep and moody, gradually building energy then wavering then building.  It's super trippy, a little dark/melancholy for me, but still house and totally danceable of course :)

So with all that said, I hope you enjoy this one and I will keep em coming!

Ben Annand Moody AF Vol 1 (Live at the Big Dirty in Eugene at Secret Sauce)

Our sunrise outting at Burning Man is one of my favorite happenings each year. It's a culmination of our art car project, the Dirty Goat Roadhouse, DJing, and celebrating a new day with loved ones. It's pretty special. 
This mix is a selection of tracks that I don't play out very often. These are not bangers or heavy hitters, but a collection of minimal/deep/tech/melodic house music spanning over 15 years. This sunrise was right before the big storms, the sky was spectacular. Please enjoy the mello vibes.

Zeebo aka Mike Zaretzke has been a true soldier for our underground community > on the dance floor, behind the decks, and behind the scenes.
As a dj, Zeebo's has put in some serious work to develop his sound and skills over the past few years, his debut set at Flammable is a lovely reflection of his range and abilities to keep butts on the dance floor. 

Enjoy the set and lookout for more of his appearances this summer!

It was an absolute treat to perform this set at the Robot Heart residency. A fantastic space with excellent sound, closely situated to Burning Man's physical roots, celebrating a broad creative spectrum of music, lighting, and physical installation art — what's not to love? 

It was the perfect setting to debut this "A/Vfib Live" show. After 20+ years of making dance music and 10+ years working on LED art, the concept of a singular integrated performance of original audio-visual content had been slowly gathering steam in my mind. 

With this opportunity, the moment finally felt right. Huge gratitude to the whole Robot Heart team and the Defibrillator lighting crew for creating such a unique multi-media canvas to play on, for trusting me to explore new material, and for fostering so much creative development along the way. Special thanks to @shafferj for "seeing the light" many years ago and steadily encouraging this work ever since, from freezing our asses off shooting photos at night to developing supremely cozy butt-warming interior lighting environments.

Six years since the last chapter of everyone's favorite Scumfrog mix series, it is finally time to introduce volume 6 of Friends With Boats! The series that was inspired by a sailing trip in 2007, and slowly navigated the ever changing sounds of Electronic sunsets, continues with a carefully selected bag of tunes that were released at any point during the past 6 years, and deemed worthy for this mix. As with the other volumes in the series, Friends With Boats is best enjoyed as the sun sets, out in the open, with libations and friends, ideally on the open water. Enjoy the summer, wherever you are!

Maryarty - Childhood (Long play)

I'm happy to finally release my first extended set with you, recorded at StereoBar in Montreal. StereoBar is a club that's quickly jumped onto my shortlist of favorite venues in the world. Beyond the nailing the club fundamentals (sound system, layout, lighting, staff), they feature the "All Night" series where one DJ plays as opener, headliner, and closer. I love this format since it gives me the opportunity to build the energy from scratch and take the night in any direction without constraints.

But more importantly, I get to play for one of the most enthusiastic, supportive crowds that I've ever encountered. The energy from this night was the strongest I've felt in quite some time, certainly my best gig of the last year. Almost everything I threw out there worked, which actually makes me think that I might not have worked hard enough. There are many more sonic landscapes I'd love to explore, so hopefully I can come back again soon and we can take another journey in that special room...

Recorded October 1, 2016
Special thanks to Kora for scrambling to record my set at the last minute!

Recorded live on our 11th anniversary designed to teleport us, we, you back to those priceless moments shared  
 
I first met the Gentle Warrior on Sunday 12th of July 2009 at a music festival in Scotland, since then we have danced together in 37 countries 6 Burning Mans 2 Sufi festivals & 1 Wedding. Tonight we raved to some of our favourite tracks both old & new, recorded on the cdj’s this unedited unbalanced untouched set might just blow yir speakers up, please take off your shoes close your eyes & celebrate with us. 
warmest love Bryan & Holly
