Burningmax Live 420 Session – Barcelona BBB 2017

Burningmax Live – Fuck Ecstatic Dance This Is Spiritual

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...

Burningmax Live @ Burning Man 2013 :: Love Potion Ambient Session

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...

Burningmax Live at Nowhere :: Garden – Asses and Aprons

As a DJ resident at the Garden of Joy, I wouldn’t have missed playing a set at the infamous Asses+Aprons party on the busy Friday night of Nowhere, the European Burning Man official event in the Monegros Desert. I guess this one was a 3-5AM DJ set, so it turned...

Burningmax Live at Nowhere :: A Night at the Garden of Joy

Not one of my best DJ sets at Nowhere this year, but definitely the longest one. I had a two hour DJ set 2-4AM, but the next DJ didn’t show up and, at 6AM, I stretched it until the full sunrise at 7AM, so it ended up to be a full 5hrs set that actually travels...

Burningmax Live at Nowhere :: Garden of Joy Opening (pre-event)

This is the first DJ set I played at Nowhere 2013, literally 15 minutes after my arrival. I got to my camp The Garden of Joy a few days before Nowhere officially started, and the soundsystem was already up, at least in its minimal asset. Right after the first round of...

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...

Burningmax Live 17 :: London Decompression 2012 (Casualties On The Dancefloor)

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...

Burningmax Live 16 :: 420 Session at Manrusionica

Due to a number of things that happened last summer, including switching to a new laptop and moving to Barcelona, I thought I lost the recording of the live djset I played at the Manrusionica festival last June in Manresa (Barcelona). I’m very happy that I just...
