What a whirlwind at Burning Man 2023. I'm slowly combing through my USBs and gathering all the sets. I will be recording a couple that I didn't get to record out there from a sunrise moment on the Janky Barge art car and a funky sunrise set at Bubbles & Bass that didn't happen because of the epic storm. 

Long before the storm, I jammed with the crew at the camp Santo Cabron and brought in the sunset vibes atop the aEyeclops art piece. It was such a beautiful view of the entire city, and I immensely want to thank Love My Robot aka Carolina and Rey Solo aka my BIPOC Beats Collective co-lead Juan for having me and for letting me share space with ya. 

Enjoy the deep sunset vibes turned House love.

This is my live recording of one of my sets I played at Burning Man 2023.  This was for one of my favorite camps on the playa, I Need an Adult.  So if you were with me that morning let's go back to those moments again, and if you were not let me take you there through music. As always thank you for the support and turn it up!!

Sunrise Set Recorded Live at Burning Man 2023 at INAA

What a feeling...playing in a place I love, surrounded by people I love...on 2 massive Funkion One stacks. Belting songs I love out across the open playa and seeing the dance floor grow! 

As I played my first song, early Sunday evening, the rain started again, people held plastic over the decks as I mixed, the rain got heavier. We danced regardless. 

Strangers coming up to me after saying "we needed this so much, thank you". 
I wonder did they know the pleasure was all mine!?

Wow, what a night!  It was the second Sunday, after the rainstorm.  We were muddy, but ready to go!  The Transylvania Castle came to life.

I had the opportunity to perform inside the speakeasy on one of the best Funktion One systems I've ever heard.

The vampires came out to dance that night and the party was rocking until the Sun came up.

Going back to the playa for my eighth burn and getting the chance to play a set with DISTRIKT for the first time was truly a dream come true. DISTRIKT has been a beloved camp where I've made countless memories over the years. The setup and sound system were totally mind-blowing, taking the crowd's energy to a whole new level. It was everything I'd hoped for and more. ~RYBO

Dadirri | Noun | Australian Aboriginal |

“A deep, spiritual act of reflection and respectful listening or communion with life.”

Reflection does not always arrive easily or without some level of resistance. Nonetheless, in order to commune with that which is life, it necessitates honoring it’s inherent duality; the challenging and the easy flow, the warmth and the bitter-cold, the sorrow and the deep joy. Respecting and actively accepting all the ways we are shown what needs to be seen. 

It is an ongoing and ever-evolving practice to live in a state of Dadirri.

T-Rav Bio:
T-Rav embraced dance music’s tasteful side long before the recent wave of DJs followed suit. Amid their recent rise in popularity, the Denver artist stands to gain quite a bit now that he’s come into his own.

With a sound suitable for nightclubs and desert parties alike, he has tapped into the heart and soul of the underground. His résumé speaks for itself. In addition to a longstanding residency at Beta Nightclub, he’s a mainstay of gatherings like Global Dance Festival, Decadence and Burning Man.

T-Rav (whose real name is Travis Cusack) originally hails from Upstate New York. He relocated along with his family to Denver at the age of 10, where he sang and learned to play the drums before discovering electronic music as a teenager. After graduating he won first place in Arapahoe Idol, a contest hosted by Arapahoe Community College.

His first exposure to DJ culture came courtesy of Chuck Williams A.K.A. Cognition, who would prove a central figure in his music career. They first performed together in 2005 with T-Rav emceeing as Cognition held it down behind the decks. Before long they evolved into a DJ duo, and they went on to land a Beta Nightclub residency in 2009. In the time since, they’ve played direct support for such artists as Paul Oakenfold, Roger Sanchez, Darude and Eric Prydz.

Both solo and alongside his partner, T-Rav has also played such Denver nightclubs as The Church, Club Vinyl and Bar Standard as well as venues like The Gothic Theatre and The Denver Coliseum. Among his early stomping grounds were after hours spots like SPA and 2AM, and he played such massives as Nation and Mastermind. He has also performed at Utah raves like Kandyland and Compound Sound in addition to sharing the stage with Richard Vission and Ferry Corsten at Salt Lake City venue The Great Saltair. As a solo act, he’s  opened up for the likes of Wolfgang Gartner, DJ Sneak, Feed Me, Green Velvet, Lee Burridge, Mat Zo, Tommy Lee and The Crystal Method over the course of his relationship with Beta.

As far as festivals are concerned, he has DJed at Colorado events like Global Dance Festival and Decadence in addition to all the Mile High editions of Electric Daisy Carnival. For five years in a row he has delivered numerous sets as transformational gathering Burning Man, as well the local Burning Man regional Apogea. The latter events have helped him solidify his signature style of progressive house, not to mention connecting him with invaluable industry contacts.
