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!

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!

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 hugs to my friends I hear “we need some music”, so I go straight to the DJ booth to open the Garden’s dancefloor with this set. Enjoy it!

Third mixdeck in the trilogy series I dedicated to the powerful sound of the Barcelona-based independent label Suara Music, and here we go with another cat cover. After the Groovy Wild Catz and the Acid Catz mixdeck, it’s now time to explore the nu-disco and funky soul of Suara, with a selection that I’m sure will make you dance like it’s 1979 – or 1999 – or better said 2013, since the Suara sound it’s always infused with a very contemporary massive bass and techno beat, even when they go disco and funky! With this mixdeck I officially close my trilogy tribute to Suara Music, meaning that starting from the next mix there will be a larger variety of labels included in my mixdecks. But of course I’m now totally hooked with Suara, so you will hear more and more of their sounds, both in my studio mixes and in my live gigs. Specially in the live DJing, because the Suara sound is truly powerful, and designed to make everybody never fucking stop dancing! Are you ready to dance? 1, 2, 3, Meuw!

Yesterday I published a live DJ set that is tied to one of my saddest memories in DJing, but good thing I also have good ones. Like the day that I decided to explore the entire production of Suara Music, a Barcelona-based independent label that is, as they say on their website, “all about music and cats”. As a matter of fact, all the releases artwork of Suara feature a cat, some of them pretty wild – I love it! (Yes, I love cats too). Suara Music is run by Coyu, one of my favorite artists, often featured as producer or remixer on the tracks I play in my mixes and DJ sets – sooner or later I’ll remix one of his tracks, promised! I love the Suara sound, so I decided to pay a tribute to the Barcelona label by playing a full DJset mixing only Suara Music releases. And of course the cover I created for the mix is also pretty “inspired” by Suara records’ artwork. Enjoy! Meuw!

My closing DJ set for the Burning Man-inspired Go Animal party at the Ice Cube Club in Zurich. Unfortunately, this is one of my saddest memories in DJing, as it will remind me forever of a very bad discussion I had with my girlfriend right at the end of the DJ set, that ended up in a broke-up – and now I feel so miserable I wish I never been to Zurich to play the gig. The trance-infused techno mix of this DJset is actually pretty awesome, so I hope that at least it will make someone happy – just not me. Not this time. =( BURNINGMAX LIVE 22 :: :: GO ANIMAL ZURICH :: DJ SET TRACKLIST :: :: E-Doser – Popof :: Let’s Take Drugs (Cedric Gervais Remix) – George Morel :: Riff Machine (Mladen Tomic Remix) – Bass Kleph :: Black Sheep – Samuel Dan :: Bang Your Head – Riton :: Nivanoise – Circles :: Front Pocket (Nicole Moudaber Remix) – Sian + Mladen Tomic :: AITU (Jokers of the Scene Remix) – Jokers of the Scene :: Banga – Spada :: Techno Raw – Coyu + Ramiro Lopez :: Kissive – Ramiro Lopez :: Hope She Ain’t Late (Teva’s CPH Remix) – Samuel Dan :: Bad Photocopy of a Big Saw – Pan-Pot :: Mr. Drive (Original Mix) – Hot Since 82 :: Tammo Chanter (Mark Reeve Remix) – Gary Beck :: My Thing (Original Mix) – George Morel Liked my Go Animal Zurich DJ set?

This studio mix has been recorded while I was following the (shameful) results of the recent Italian political elections 2013. I was pretty angry for the useless vote that resulted in a non-governable country and in a political chaos and more hard times for Italy. Which made me think at my good friend, burner and raver Miss Dusty Purple, who recently added a new ink job to her tattooed body, the awesome statement “Hard Times Require Furious Dancing” – yes, the one I used for the cover art of this mixdeck. Thanks Marghe! Furious Dancing? That was exactly what I needed to forget the elections, so I plugged my headphones and started mixing. This is the result of a very pissed off studio session, so there might be a couple of minor fuck-ups in the mix, but I hope you’ll enjoy it anyway. Remember: hard times? Just dance the worries away. Furiously, of course!
