There is no understating how big a legend Frankie Bones is. There east coast scene starts with him and his crew. A Frankie Bones set was a unique mix of energy, darkness, and positive vibes. You didnt listen to his sets, you experienced them.

TRESOR.BERLIN / DJ FRANKIE BONES / JULY 1, 2022 - First things first, it was great to be able to fly to Berlin to play Tresor after the Covid-19 outbreak & lockdown of 2020/2021.  It's been three years for me not being in Europe.  My last European gig was at Tresor in 2019.

I've been through it all in the past few years, it's humbled me out and allowed me enough time to really focus on myself as a DJ and I've come to a new level of understanding.

Levelled up.  Way up.  I know what I am up against in these times.  The way I play and the way I select tunes is why Tresor books me year after year.  This is my second Soundcloud mix of 2022, so I knew in advance I would have to really step things up and this won't disappoint.

My objective here is for you the listener to hear things you don't hear from anyone else.  And to be blown away by it.  To stand out in the digital blob of endless DJ mixes you are bombarded with every single day.

To know people I consider friends get annoyed when I DM them this special moment.  Sign of the times.  But I'm being honest.  This needs to be heard.

TRESOR.BERLIN / DJ FRANKIE BONES / JULY 1, 2022

After Hours 2023.  The Brooklyn Underground's Beach & Bridge Sess1ons parties on Plumb Beach & Under the bridge inspired by the original After Hours 1993 Yellow tape.  30 years later the sound has a West Coast Desert Party feel due to the fact that it goes way past darkness in sunrise and into the light of day.  

it's not a big festival business techno style or big room club music, though it could be.  The mixing style & track selection is a story, a journey with peaks & valley's, there are huge breakdowns & drops, but there is more too it then that.  It's the equation of literally thousands of Saturday Nights spent all around the world since 1983 - not doing math but I think we
are talking about 2088 Saturday Nights forged into next weekend.

it comes off different from anything else because it's all about having a signature style which can't be anything else but true authentic best version of self to date.

How It Feels

Everyone is getting spoiled with so much talent doing their thing.  Tons of good music being played right now.  For me this cannot be compared to anything else.  Factory Mix-Tapes is now at 31 years old.  And with that came the experience of a life time.   But the underground remains timeless.  I dare to be different.  In these 77 minutes I take riska and I play new music.  Some stuff is my own & some isn't.  

I don't do this for fame or for money.  I do it as a means for survival, for without it, I would not have any reason to continue on day after day.  The music really does heal and makes me have a sense of purpose.  I'm good right now.  You will be to if you believe.;

FACTORY 123 / JUNETEENTH 2023 SUMMER DJ MIX / FRANKIE BONES

Mixed Live - Donald Glaude 2nd Session

ELECTRIC DAISY CARNIVAL - LIVE AT EDC 2016

Tommie Sunshine & Myself came together without warning to do a B2B set which went mix for mix, without knowing what the other one was going to play and it became one for the record books.   We were in the trenches, deep in the mud and the sound quality reflects that.  But it's O.K.  You will get the message here.  No sync, No practice, just two guys who have been doing our respective things for a sound which we would being playing if we lived to a 100 years old.

523 - DJ Scott Henry* ‎– Sm:)e Mix Session 1 (1996)

Carl Cox was always the peoples favorite DJ ever since I met him in the U.K. in 1989.  This has not changed in almost 30 years.  He wrote the blueprint for worldwide success in DJ Culture while I was writing blueprints for American Rave Culture.   Teksupport threw one hell of a party on June 16 in Brooklyn.  

As I always continue to innovate, this set is different then anything I have been known for in the past.    It's Techno in 2018.  I never lost that hardcore edge, but the fact that I am an opener of Carl, it's a hot summer day and people had just arrived, I did something that emulated my original arrival to the U.K. in August 1989. 

The Tempo.  This entire set was 122-123 Beats Per Minute. Quite slow for techno.  
But it is that innovation which is important for me in this day & age of DJ culture.  To be different & unique then follow everyone else.
