I’m still trying to process what happened that Sunday. The 2024 Lightning in a Bottle Festival will forever hold a special place in my heart. I was incredibly lucky to play before the top-tier name in the game, @rufusdusol. Thank you to everyone who was there and danced with us – it was next level. A special thank you to @patricio_la for making it happen. It was mind-blowing.

I’ve been a fan of Paul Kalkbrenner’s music for as long as I can remember. His sound has always stood out to me — there’s just something different about it, something timeless. A few years ago, a dream of mine came true when we booked him at The Midway in San Francisco. Meeting him and seeing his magic live only deepened my admiration, and since then, I’ve been a loyal fan.

When it came time to release my very first track, I knew I wanted to dedicate it to someone who had truly inspired me. Sky and Sand has been one of my top three favorite tracks forever — it’s a piece of music that never loses its meaning no matter how many times I hear it.

So, here it is: my own version of a track, inspired by that spirit. I crafted it with those magical sunset and sunrise moments in mind — the times when the music feels infinite.

Hope you enjoy it.
