I will cherish my debut set on the spirit train for the rest of my days. 

Once my nerves subsided, I dived deep into the present moment for the task at hand - conducting LOBO’s Friday evening warmup route and transporting a desert gathering into an alternate dimension. 

I succeeded in my mission of communicating all the music I had intended. The message was delivered and the train reached its destination safely. 

My job was done and my soul was lifted.

HESSELBERG - RTTS, 18h00 - 20h00 Friday, May 2021 (The SPIRIT Train)

I was honoured when asked to take over the musical proceedings after the mornings yoga class and sound journey. 

I relish any opportunity to fill a space with appropriate and respectful sounds and this setting was just perfect for me to gently  ease the desert gathering into the day and slowly open up the dance floor. 

By the end of my set the floor was filled with happy, smiling souls, ready for a day of getting lost in dance and connection. 

Namaste.

OFFROAD - RTTS, 16h00 - 18h00 Sunday, May 2021 (That DAM Dancefloor)

A few hours before I started this set I spontaneously decided to swallow some liquid LSD – something I haven’t done in several years! With one hour to go before my due set time I had to ask the dj before me to please play for 30minutes longer as I was still peaking with swirling psychedelic trails in my forefront & peripheral vision. In fact I was not coping with the thought of the task at hand, and retreated to my camp for support. My fiancé and partner in this project were in the same boat as I. and we decided the only way forward was to team up and return to the dj booth as a crew…and so we did just that.

By the time I returned the dj booth was crammed with strangers, staring at me, waiting for me to plug in. It was so overwhelming we had to remove everybody from that space, leaving just the RTTS crew behind with me to get on with the job.

After a shaky start I recall playing a remix of Pink Floyd ‘The Wall’ and these intense feelings of inadequacy dissolved in a heartbeat! “We don’t need no education” sang the crowd with an almighty crescendo, and in that moment I felt I had mastered my craft, captained my ship, controlled the acid within my veins and the energetic field within my lower regions channeled through my upper body and soared through my head into the night sky!! An energetic shift and moment I shall never forget. An instant vision and memory of a community where everybody was united in music and vibration, with a certain forgiveness for the faulty dj before them, ha ha. 

After such a tough journey in such a tough industry…I truly felt acknowledged.

Why we don’t deserve nice things

Return To The Source Aug 2021

Been a while since I prepped this long for a gig. The Upside Down is right up my alley, so totally worth it.

Having absolute freedom of creativity and direction when being booked for a set is when I'm happiest.

This was a good night to be part of.
