Wayward - Jan 2025 - F8 San Francisco

My third appearance at Wayward!
This time around, I decided to try something a little different. I had a pretty good idea of what @justynmyers would spin before me, and I definitely knew what @oganic would throw down after me, so I attempted a selection of songs that would create a nice dovetail. Let me know if you think it worked!

What a way to start off the new year! For January 2025, Wayward did a rare Friday front room takeover at F8, and we started the year off with a bang! Our extended lineup consisted of Xyme, Justyn Myers, Adam Iko, OGAN, and yours truly, then we finished off the night with a little B2B session between OGAN and Yaz (left out of this recording -- by that point OGAN was still on point, but I was half DJ half mezcal)...

Wayward: Phantasm // October 2025

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.
