I’m excited to share the 14th installment of the KohBeats mix series — and the first one since 2023! Each mix usually starts with a concept: sometimes it’s a single track, a mood, or an inspiring party. From there, I curate a shortlist of tracks, arrange them, test transitions and flow, tweak things, and finally record the mix live.

This is a bit different from my live sets, where I build playlists in advance but improvise in the moment without a pre-planned order. I love preparing these mixes because it lets me explore a wider range of sounds, including tracks that aren’t always aimed directly at the dancefloor. Over the past year or so, I’ve been feeling good about my live sets and hadn’t really been inspired to put together a KohBeats mix — so I didn’t force it.

The inspiration for this one came from a warehouse party in March 2025, hosted by my Burning Man camp, DeMentha. I played the closing set during sunrise and had a vision for the vibe I wanted to create: starting deep and minimal, creating higher energy moments for the dancefloor, and then gradually bringing warmth and emotive, uplifting vibes as the night gave way to morning. While I was happy with the tracks and the crowd’s response that night, when I listened back to the live recording, the mixing and flow just didn’t feel quite right. Still, I loved the overall idea — so I decided to rework it for KohBeats. I swapped out a few tracks, improved the flow, and recorded it properly while keeping the spirit of that sunrise set alive.

Hope you enjoy it. Would love to hear what you think!
Much love <3

It’s been 5 years since I’ve posted a mix and I’m excited to get back into it!

This one is inspired by recent events around my city and I wanted to give a daytime into evening vibe that goes through different styles and moods. 
Mainly house, tech house, and techno with some splashes of disco. 

I’m looking forward to making more mixes soon and to explore new and interesting music. 
Thank you for checking this one out and I hope it makes you as happy as it has made me to make it. 

I hope you enjoy it and it brings happiness, warmth, and light into your day.

Took my live set rig to F8 for a fun Thursday night. The lineup was stacked with excellent music from Adam Iko, Nick Granado & our host Yaz. Live set went down a treat, it was a blast to perform an hour of original OGAN material in front of a San Francisco home crowd:) Be on the lookout for more live performances soon!

Cosma serves up a Sbagliato - both in cocktail and sound. Much like the iconic Italian drink, which swaps gin for sparkling wine of the classic Negroni recipe, his set offers a surprising twist: light yet layered, refined but playfully offbeat. It's a blend that sparkles with character, inviting you into a deep, melodic groove that feels both familiar and unexpected.

A resident at Bloop London’s Cosmic Frequencies, Cosma curates immersive journeys rooted in organic textures and warm, evolving rhythms. His passion for the Berlin scene seeps into his sound - textured, thoughtful, and always moving forward. Whether it’s an intimate club or an open-air session, Cosma brings a distinct emotional edge to his sets.

This mix, like the Sbagliato, is all about balance - elegant, vibrant, and full of subtle surprises. Cosma’s selection flows effortlessly, weaving deep grooves with melodic warmth, creating a sonic atmosphere that invites full immersion. It's a set to unwind to, move with, and return to—time and time again. Let the music carry you.

Cheers!
The bartenders

Absenz - No Feelings

MicroBot - Ouzil Jagger (Original Mix)

Yaz is a San Francisco-based DJ who enjoys playing tech house, deep tech, minimal, and techno. He is an active member of the Burning Man community and underground house/techno community in San Francisco.

Yaz has played all over San Francisco at all the major venues, including Public Works, Mighty / The Great Northern, Monarch, Midway, and Halcyon. He was a resident DJ at the venerated Wish Lounge for 5+ years, running his monthly Wayward party right up until the pandemic caused Wish to close. Once it was safe to do so, he has taken Wayward to its new home F8 Nightclub, and has been a resident there since August 2021. 

Yaz has collaborated with many different promoters and labels, and has opened and closed for (or shared billing with) well-known artists including John Digweed, Bob Moses, The Scumfrog, Tommy Four Seven, John Monkman, Technasia, and Marques Wyatt, to name a few.

His love for Burning Man is only rivaled by his love for music. His styles go from deep tech, minimal and techno to indie dance. You can find him on the playa playing for his camp DeMentha, and everywhere else for The Janky Barge, Airpusher, and Icarus. Yaz has also participated in many fundraisers in San Francisco for the aforementioned camps, as well as DISTRIKT, Mayan Warrior, the Salty Jacks, and others.
