Another one of my live DJ sets at Nowhere 2019: this one was on Saturday night, for the closing party of the Garden of Joy, with their mighty Funktion One sound system, and a constant crowded dancefloor. Loved it. I played a 3 hours DJ set, and I decided to dedicate the first half of it to one of my favorite underground techno artist and label, and also a friend and a fellow member of the Garden of Joy family: the Belgian techno producer Philippe Petit, and the two record labels of which Philippe is patron and one of the most prolific contributors, Knotweed Records and DMT – Decision Making Theory. The Knotweed / DMT Tribute lasted for more than half an hour, before I moved on towards the closing of the set with a good bang of techno dance. This Dj set is the recording of the tribute part, and ends up mixed into a Boris Brejcha track. Here it is, enjoy and dance. Put your dusty gear on, if you want.

Here is the first of the DJ sets I played this year at Nowhere 2009. Not the first I played this year in the Monegros desert, but probably the one where I had more fun playing. Enjoy the very funky and uplifting 2hrs sunset session (8-10PM) I played at the new amazing Belgian barrio KosmoZoo. I kicked the DJ set off with a very funky deep house tune I really love, then jumped immediately into Chicago house, mostly exploring the production of UK-based house label Soul Revolution, that I have recently discovered on BandCamp. At around half set I moved to UK garage and bass music, I dropped some afro-jamaican-brazilian percussions, and I finally closed the set with a bit of progressive deep house tunes. The final part of the set has been epic, a desert classic. A night dust storm was approaching, while the sunset painted the sky in reds and blacks, and the first drops of rain started coming down. Meanwhile, the KosmoZoo crew was protecting speakers and electronics from rain and securing tarps from the wind, I was playing a remixed version of Nathan Fake’s “The Sky was Pink”, and everybody kept dancing until the end of the set. Loved it. Stay tuned, as I will be releasing all other Nowhere 2019 DJ sets soon!

A Burningmax tribute to Larry Harvey, Burning Man’s founder and Chief Philosopher Officer. Larry Harvey passed away a couple of months ago, and June 21st has been declared Global Celebration / Day of Gratitude for Larry Harvey. I have dedicated Larry’s Gratitude Day to listening to several Larry Harvey video interviews and keynote presentations on YouTube (links below), then I decided to get some of the inspirational phrases he said out of those videos, and to mix them in a techno DJ set / studio mix. There are a couple of flaws here and there, specially with the lack of equalization of Larry’s recordings, and a couple of saturated basses here and there – but this has been a “one shot recording”, a sort of “live at home”, in my headphone. Immediacy, no post-production. I hope you’ll like it, and will get inspired too. As a matter of fact, I’m not sure if Larry would appreciate this, because, you know… techno was not his strong hat. But this is certainly the best way for me to say #thankslarry. You have been, you are and you will be one of my primary sources of inspiration, and so is the international community that spurred out of your hat. We’ll keep The Man burning.

This is the first of my DJ sets at the recent Italian Burning Boots – IBB 2018, a a very nice small scale burners gathering in the woods of Tuscany.

Another DJ set from those played last summer at the Nowhere festival in Spain, as a resident at the Funktion One-powered Garden of Joy camp.

Have you tried liquid drum and bass for breakfast? It’s delicious! Try it with a mimosa cocktail or with a bloody mary, depending on your hungover state! =) I love liquid drum and bass, with its “logical progression” bass, its jungle beat and a bit of grime mixed up in a good measure. Liquid drum and bass tunes are beautiful, dreamful, uplifting. Soulful, luscious, sexy. A bit cheesy sometimes, specially on the lyrics and some piano or horns melodies, but it does its job delivering progressive bliss, and keeping pumping on the dancefloor. This is my very last at Nowhere 2017, 2 early morning hours that flew by smoothly. After my actual last closing set on Saturday night, when we had to respect sound policy and to switch off our Function One racks at 7AM, I’ve plugged the exit of my Traktor controller into a Minirig speaker and served some liquid drum and bass for breakfast to the last ravers who still want to keep dancing. Because we neverfuckingstop, remember? =) This year at Nowhere I’ve been playing every day, including before and after the official festival dates, and I selected 5 sets to share, those with mostly new tracks, and with different styles. I will be sharing the other Nowhere DJ sets soon, stay tuned! One technical note about this liquid drum and bass set: since I played this set on small speakers without a proper subwoofer, and switching from Funktion One, I’ve “pumped up” the bass from my controller. It worked, but I had to clean a bit the sound from the recorded session, as the bass...

Not the average 420 session, that generally comes all mellow and “smokey beats”. This time, at the recent Barcelona Burning Bash Weekend BBB 2017, I just decided to go with massive beats – from gangsta rap to techno with some good bass music too, just what the crowd packing the dancefloor needed! And of course all of the songs (or most of them anyway) celebrate 420! Rastafari!

I’ve never really understood the trend of Ecstatic Dance. Don’t get me wrong, I have a very active “holistic life” so I know it all about it, but as a DJ and most of all as a raver, I simply cannot understand (nor accept) those sudden swings from a good tune to a crappy one, to an uplifting groove to a sudden cheesy pop song. Yes, sure… the 5 rythms, the flow… I know – but that’s gotta be a different way… So at the recent Barcelona Burning Bash Weekend BBB 2017, during one of my scheduled DJ sets I took the holistic dance to another level – the spiritual one. And I made sure that one was going to good for the dancefloor, too – not just for the soul. Techno, trance, and good dance electronica are this time at service of prayers. The entire set, that opens and closes with a Gayatri Mantra, is actually made by tracks that are in fact prayers. And when they are not, good dance music is the base for a wide series of spiritual loops that I throw in the mix: buddhist mantras, tibetan monks, gregorian chants, african spiritual chants, native american prayers, sufi sounds, Osho meditation tunes and more – including “icaros”, sacred amazonian chants for ayahuasca ceremonies. I hope you enjoy it. Shanti Om, motherfuckers.

My DJ set for the Burning Man event of Roman Burners in November 2016, an experiment I decided to make because after all, this is what Burning Man is about… I normally play techno and other electronica, from acid house to psychedelic beats, but I’ve never played drum’n’bass before, though I’ve been dancing to a lot of progressive D’n’B back in the ’90s. So I decided to finally drop the bass with the drum, while swinging back and forth from techno during the burn, with a session I like to call “techno’n’drum’burn”. Enjoy the bipolar beats!

My three DJ sets at the Barcelona Burning Bash Weekend (also and even better known as BBB) are immediately available online by popular demand. Over the last months, while I have been recording all my DJ sets, I never had the time to actually timecode them, upload them to MixCloud, and create the relative blog posts. But this time here they are, merely one week after the event, and all three of them! So here we go, a deep techno set with some rave, old school moments, one morning dance set for a crowd who still wanted to keep grooving, and a sweet afternoon set in the sun by a pool – all in the same blog post, for faster sharing! One technical note: since we had some problens with acoustics at the main stage of BBB, the sets played there have very little bass – I guess you can fix that manually by pumping the bass up in your device. The poolside set has a more balanced sound, and very chilly dance tunes. Enjoy them all! =) BURNINGMAX LIVE @ BBB 2015 :: DANCING IN THE SUN BY THE POOL Probably the BBB 2015 DJ set I had more fun with.

Barcelona Burning Bash – or simply BBB is a great event organized by the Barcelona Burning Man Community in a magical place in the woods south of Barcelona. At its third year (second in the woods, as the first event was in the city), BBB is starting attracting burners from the four corners of the world, and this year the event has been particularly successful.

Burning Night Paris! What an amazing event the French Burners can throw! My fourth time on stage at the Machine du Moline Rouge, the now classic Burning Night Paris venue – this time I played at the “Bar a boules”, a great bar dancefloor on the upper level of the venue, packed with happy people… and I had a very good time! A little behind-the-scene: when I tried to access the DJ booth I hit my head on some sort of metal support that really opened up my head. there was a lot of blood, a bit of panic on my side, but after 15 minutes draining blood in the restrooms, I went back on stage and – even if buzzing, a bit in pain and 15 minutes late – I kicked the shit out of that place with an acid-y session mixing up a few new great tunes with a few classic I knew the dancefloor would have loved. It’s just a 45 minutes session, but it’s gonna make you dance, promised!

Another recent DJ set – this time far from cities and metropolis, up in the Pyrenees mountain for the Sanilles Cabaret Bash, a classic gathering for the Barcelona burners – and a true warm-up for the upcoming BBB Weekend! No hardcore rave beats here, just 2hrs+ of very groovy deep techno, a bit progressive sometimes, but always pretty uplifting. Enjoy!

Here is my recent DJ set for Burning Bar Berlin, a Burning Man community event organized in conjunction with the first official Burning Man European Leadership Summit – and… my first ever DJ gig in Berlin! I know today Berlin’s sound today it’s all about minimal, deep and other b-pitcheries, but as my first ever DJ gig in Berlin I wanted to pay a tribute to the techno sound that inspired me long, long time ago… so here we go with a full on industrial rave techno set, my personal tribute to the early Tresor days.

Just a week after releasing the LoveHate double DJ session I had the opportunity to perform a double DJ set at the Vienna Burning Ball, the first gathering organized by the Austrian community of burners. Of course I went for a LoveHate Live session, playing half an hour of Love-inspired uplifting groovy tunes at 2-2.30AM, and then kicking in and closing the event with one hour of techno beats with the 4.30-5.30AM Hate-inspired slot. The Vienna Burners managed to sold out their first event packing the central venue Garage X with the Vienna crowd, but also gathering burners from everywhere around Europe – the venue was packed with truly beautiful people. I had a stupid accident the night before flying to Vienna but I decided to travel anyway, so I ended up going to the party and DJing on a wheelchair, while the next day I had to go to the hospital in Vienna. Anyway, I’m glad I went to Vienna – wheelchair and hospital on a side, it’s been a great experience. I loved it, and I hated it. Pretty much like this mix. =) Enjoy the Love.

At the end of September 2013 I flew directly from Burning Man and the DPW tear down straight into my favorite European burners community, at the amazing French Burning Weekend. The three-days gathering, actually held in Belgium, in the woods outside Brussels – same place where a few years ago I participated to the Art in Action weekend – is a brainchild of the mighty French Burners community. Here is, in one single downloadable set, the distillate of all the DJ sessions I played during that weekend – one pretty dark techno set, another one geared towards acid sounds, and a final rave-y set, all together for your headbanging pleasure!

I’m not always in party or rave mode, even on the playa. there are moments when, if I feel blue, I just grab my headphones, controller and gear, and I express my mood accordingly with the music. This is what happened one morning at Burning Man 2013, when I plugged in at the Love Potion Camp soundsystem for an ambient set of almost 5 hours. Here it is – all yours, for the moments when you feel blue too – or those when you just want to chill out.

More Amphora DJ sets from Burning Man 2013. This time I had the pleasure and the honor of “opening” for one of my favorite DJ posse on the Playa, Space Cowboys. At their “classic” Wednesday party at the Trash Fence Space Cowboy asked for the collaboration of all the top art cars on the playa – including Amphora of course. More than a dozen sound systems blasting the same music being broadcasted live from Unimog, the mighty sound system art car of the San Francisco DJ collective – and I provided the opening DJ set for the entire trip of Amphora till the party location, making sure to pump it up enough so to get the crowd ready for the all-night party mood.

Playing a set at Burning Man is already an amazing experience for a DJ, but being a DJ resident at one of the coolest theme camps with sound system, and with one of the most awesome art cars on the playa, it’s definitely top. At Burning Man 2013 I had the pleasure to be part of Love Potion Camp, and the honor to play several times from the sound system of Amphora. This is just a sample from the many DJ set I played in the amazing LED-powered art car – day and night sounds.

The recent Barcelona Burning Weekend was another amazing Euroburners’ gathering. A magic place with a Gaudi-esque castle in the woods near Alcover in Catalunya, with burners friends and family from all over Europe, and the right awesome attitude from all participants. As usual, I have been pretty busy on several fronts – from leading a shift at the Gate to helping out for tear down and more, including building a Temple! Yes, the Temple of the Light at the End of the Tunnel, here are a few pictures of it on Facebook! On the DJing side, I played two techno DJ sets on Friday night and on Saturday night. I forgot to record the Friday night set, and the one on Saturday, while it was pretty good (everybody was dancing), was mostly killer tunes I already published here with some of my recents DJ sets. So I’m now sharing the warm up downtempo DJ set I played in the woods on Friday afternoon, right after the set up of the Temple. I hope you like it!

Euroburners’ decompression parties are getting better and better. I was expecting the first Belgian Decompression to be a great party, since its organizers were all cool people and nice burners, but I really was surprised to find out that it was a truly jewel of a gathering, a really awesome party with burners friends and family from all over Europe. I played a warm-up DJset at the beginning of the evening, then got I busy with an art installation and enjoyed the rest of the night with friends. I closed the event playing a pretty acid chill down dj set in the downstairs room, where everybody was gathering since it was also the bar area, and I truly enjoyed laying the chilled beats even more than the initial powered up set. And here we go, the set is now finally online, and all yours to enjoy, download and dance!

This is the DJ set I prepared for Fatturato, the afterparty of Venduto at CarnemVale 2013 in Milan – but I didn’t had the chance to play it. The afterparty, organized at the Q21 Club in Milan, was scheduled 6AM-noon, and I was supposed to play my set from 10 to 12. Everything went pretty well from 6 to 9 – the club was nice and so the music, people dancing with a very happy afterparty mood – but at 9AM the organizers told me the club owners wanted to close earlier (at 10AM) so they asked me to rush at the decks and play my set. By the time I got everything set up it was 9.15-9.20 and, after only 10 minutes of djset, while everybody was happy on the dancefloor, the bouncers came up and, in a very rude way, they shut everything off. They said the reason was that the bar was not cashing in, so they decided to send everybody home. Just like this. Whatever – I moved on to my friends’ house and I played my set anyway and we all had fun. This is what you missed, Q21!

Burning Night Paris is, in my opinion, the best Burning Man party in Europe, being even more intense than London Decompression, and also for the awesome location, the world-famous Moulin Rouge in Paris!

It took me a month to finally be able to publish the recording on my closing DJ set at London Decompression 2012. The reason is that my laptop died just a couple of days after the set, and my poor baby has been in the hospital (Apple assistance) until yesterday! A month and 420 Euro later (hey! 420 again!) I finally got it back. And here we are! The title Casualties on the Dancefloor came up while working on the London Decom playlist. “Really? Am I really going for remixed hardcore punk? Jeeee… I’m gonna make some casualties, this is pretty violent…“, but I decided to go for it anyway! I guess this has been the darkest and most violent sound I played live since I dj – I mean, the hard techno or overnoisy track every now and then or the super acid sets are part of the classic trademark sound of Burningmax live, but this is the first time I do a 1 hour 30 minutes set that can make your ears bleed. And I liked it, and people on the dancefloor too. I underestimated the level of aural resistance of the Decom crowd – they actually loved it and neverfuckingstop danced until the end at 6AM, leaving no casualties on the dancefloor at all! Sweet! Now it’s your time to either enjoy it or being a casualty! =) BURNINGMAX LIVE AT LONDON DECOMPRESSION 2012 :: LIVE SET TRACKLIST :: :: Upon Ourselves (Intro) – Argy feat Bajka :: Climb feat.
