Another exclusive mix from Curiosity 2021 is here! It's a special one for Torie, her full story is below! Stay tuned for weekly Monday mixes from the festival :)

From @yotorieee : FULL TRANSPARENCY: THIS IS REALLY MESSY. But given the story surrounding it, I’ve decided to release it as-is rather than trying to re-record. I was playing on a broken mixer in the middle of the desert (which I didn’t discover until I tried it during my start), battling Mother Nature, and just said f*ck it and embraced it. This was a huge lesson in being humble, and a strong reminder that part of DJing is being able to work with whatever’s thrown at you. 

This was perhaps my most experimental set ever, and arguably the most memorable I’ve played yet. Read the story below, and laugh with me as you listen. 

Cheers to everyone who danced with me. This was an ADVENTURE.

As I came onto the decks, I learned from the prior DJ – DJ Spacecamp – that “some of the cues don’t work”. Naturally, I’m like – shit, ok, what am I getting myself into? One of my first mixes is a disaster bc at that moment, I was testing out & learning that ALL FOUR cue buttons were stuck on “ON”. I realize that I can’t cue anything & am gonna be mixing blindly. Panic slightly ensues – but after a few min, I finally find my flow. (Lesson learned: always assume that gear in the elements will break.)

This set is v sentimental to me b/c it was a full-circle moment. At my first Curiosity 5 years ago, this running joke that “Torie hates breaks” started. It has lived on ever since, so I obvi wanted to fuck with everyone by playing breaks / left-field / eclectic sounds I’ve been loving out of the UK and Australia. It was only fitting that amongst this absurdity, I had to bring back the joke that had been such a big part of my growth – both with Inquiry & as an artist. 

As that initial terrible mix happened, I yelled to the crowd: "Don't mind me, just figuring out a broken mixer over here." I was trying to figure out what I could hear and not hear, and it quickly clicked that none of the buttons would do anything. Alas, I’ve decided not to fix it afterwards since this was such a hilariously frustrating moment that was also SO memorable. I played this entire set sans cues – using the screen, very loud headphones (sorry, ears), and my track memory as much as I could. It put my skills to the test, pushed all of my limits, and was so absurd – but so fitting for Curiosity. I’ll own my mistakes here. It was messy, but this is part of what makes you grow as an artist.

An aside: I started with Partiboi69 to follow Spacecamp's absolute flooring incredibleness of a set (real talk: best set of the weekend). PB69 has been a much-loved artist that we discovered over quarantine & has brought a lot of laughter to my friend group, so that silliness was really where I wanted to start my set before I dove into 1.5 hrs of music that I knew would surprise a lot of people. This isn’t a sound that I’ve played out much before, so I was stoked to explore this on such an incredible soundsystem in my favorite place on earth – the desert. 

I left my set so mad at the mixer situation, but eventually realized that at the end of the day, this shit happens. You have to pull thru, do work, and make the best of any given situation. You have to keep moving forward. 

Enjoy the ride.

-Torie

Torie @ Inquiry: Curiosity 2021

18 years of Tanzhaus West! Great vibes in Frankfurt, here’s our set from the night…

Audiojack @ Tanzhaus West, Frankfurt [27.11.21]

for our @icarusartcar fundraiser at Monarch SF in April 2022, our resident DJs each chose a friend to b2b with - so i grabbed my east coast sista @itsmekatiemarie & we teamed up for this new duo project we're working on that we've aptly named // chaos theory // 

full transparency, as is par for course: i threw katie into the fire a bit when i told her i'd like to play *very fast techno and sum breaks sitting around 128-145 bpm* & she was also new to the v10 mixer (what a learning curve that damn thing is). the first few track transitions here are messy, no doubt - i was showing her how to use the mixer on the fly, we were getting into our groove, and, well, you know how chaos can go in a packed club w a lot of loud noises. but that's the fun of it, right? 

regardless - once we got into it, we damn went, and we piloted the shit out of that spaceship. 

enjoy some minimal house, techno, acid techno, & breaks + left-field garage soundin' stuff. strap in for a helluva ride cuz this one's a damn adventure with a helluva groove.

xx, 
torie & katie

About this mix Torie sez: 
"It's been two years since my last Ripecast, and I'm thrilled and honored to be back. It's crazy to see how my musical taste has evolved since then – and I'm stoked to be able to share some of my absolute fav tracks I've been digging lately. I've been exploring more of the acid, techno, minimal, & breaks (we love breaks!) worlds, so strap in and get ready for an adventure. Cheers!"

This may have been one of my favorite sets I've played... ever. 

Here's my opening set ahead of Overmono at Monarch SF on Friday, Oct 14th. Breaks, UKG, fun things. 

Thanks to everyone who joined me on the dancefloor, to DJ Dials for having me out, to the Monarch team, and to Ty for making the Monarch basement sound the best it's ever been.

This was unreal. Enjoy xx

You can listen to my Burning Man 2017 Sunrise Set at The Kazbah now on my Soundcloud... Playing a post man-burn Sunday morning Sunrise set at #Kazbah has become my favorite yearly tradition and Ali Love jumps on the mic towards the end of the set... As a DJ the surroundings for this party are unreal... I love the gradual change from a bumping night time neon laser jam in mars till colors start to paint the sky in the morning.  The atmosphere felt like a rebel outlaw replicant camp on mars celebrating a blood red sunrise as it rose directly in front of an epic pyramid for the ultimate degenerate music listeners.  Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

What's up Desert Hearts Family,

The next live set we've got for you comes from one of our favorite producers in the game right now, @Lubelski. You wanna talk about consistency? Lubelski's been firing off quality track after quality track and his DJ sets speak volumes of his musicality. We're pumped to release his brand new 'I Want Acid' EP this Friday and felt dropping his Live @ Desert Hearts set this week would be the perfect compliment to get us in the mind and vibe of our boy Lubelski.

Enjoy!

House. Techno. Love.
We Are All Desert Hearts.

Wow, wow, wow. This was the first time I've had the pleasure of playing the basement at 1015, and what an experience that was. I'm so honored to share a lineup with the mega-talented Maya Jane Coles. Here's an hour of some of my favorite sounds right now: some groovy, darker tech house and dives into a heavier techno side too. I hope it moves you as much as it moved me – enjoy ~ 
 
Much thanks to DJ Dials, 1015 Folsom, Noise Pop and As You Like It for having me out!

*This is a re-recording since I forgot my recorder that night. Thanks to @kool-karlo for the master.

With a global upbringing, roots in San Francisco, & a current base in San Diego, Torie’s sound is eclectic to say the least. She interweaves elements of house, minimal, dark & driving techno, breaks, soulful vocals, soft melodies – & every now and then, some drum & bass – all to tell a story through sound. She believes in the power of groove, and plays with one goal in mind: to bring newfound life to the dancefloor.

As a core lead of Inquiry Collective, artist with Burning Man art cars ICARUS and Dusty Rhino, a resident DJ of You’re Welcome, and a co-founder of Dance With Haha, she draws inspiration from the dusty plains of the playa, the curious explorations of the Mojave desert, the underground dancefloors of SF, & the interstellar endeavors of ICARUS & its motley crew.

She has performed with KiNK, Superflu, Justin Martin, Overmono, Maya Jane Coles, Anja Schneider, Tale of Us, Patrice Baumel, Marbs, Mikey Lion, Porky and Evan Casey of Desert Hearts, Rinzen, Dance Spirit, Eskuche, Marques Wyatt, Tycho, KMLN, Sabo, Justin Jay, Hoj, Kevin Knapp, Shiba San, Joeski and more. You may have seen her with renowned crews like Space Cowboys, Distrikt, and Desert Hearts, or on the festival circuit – including Outside Lands, EDC Las Vegas, Northern Nights Music Festival, Desert Hearts Festival, The Untz Festival, Umbrella Weekend, and Outside in Equinox.
