REVEL was another awesome April Saturday, chock full of great people and incredible music. It was fun to bounce around the three stages and see smiling faces and packed dance floors everywhere. I played an early evening slot, so I started with some deep tech house and ramped into some thumping techno. Enjoy! 1. Dont Walk Away (Original) - Dance Spirit 2. Rancho Anthemo (Original Mix) - Anja Schneider, Sebo K, Rodriguez Jr. 3. Walkmen (Original Mix) - Andhim 4. Ghetto Blaster (Original Mix) - Ray...

Not a year has gone by since Distrikt first welcomed the thirsty, dancing masses that I have not stood on that platform in the desert, smiling vastly, thankful to be alive...to be exactly there...to be in the company of the world's best people at the year's best party. The sky softens to pink, dust rises from happy feet and the sounds of Distrikt vibrate our collective soul. Distrikt, thanks for all the memories and those yet to come! Playing a daytime set at Revel, I had the chance to pull out ...

It feels like the timing was meant to be and I merged with friends on a parallel highway. Sunset Sound System was invited to lay down some beats at DISTRIK'S Revel Block Party and I was ecstatic to join the madness. Here you'll find a set served up outdoors and during the day to get the party going. It was a classic San Francisco one at that with the fog slowly edging over the city as it danced interchangeably with the sun. I'm sure you'll find this mix as fun to listen to as the day it was crea...

adamROSS Live @ DISTRIKT :: REVEL 2013 Recently I was invited to join the DISTRIKT crew for their biggest fundraiser of the year, REVEL, at Public Works S.F.

Playing our Distrikt Fundraiser in LA was so meaningful bc not only was it the first event I threw with Ben Seagran (Distrikt) who's become a dear friend, but i also had the pleasure of opening for one of my favorite techno producers Joseph Capriati. Connecting with the music and energy expressed at Distrikt during my first Burn, melted my heart, made me feel at home, & created a love for what Distrikt represents. I'm so appreciative to have been given the opportunity to share what moves me,...

It’s an honor to have the opportunity to put together a mix for the Distrikt podcast. Big thank you goes out to DJ Kramer and the rest of the crew for having me on board. This is my first studio mix in over two years, inspired from the peak time, dance floor driven sets I‘ve been playing out over the last couple months. It’s a smooth blend of funky and tech house, laced with classic hip-hop, soul, and disco samples. This mix is the perfect house party sound track. Hope you like it! - Gravity 1. ...

The DISTRIKT crew are some true professionals on and off the playa. Always great to work with them in SF on parties at Public Works. And then in the desert- DISTRIKT is easily the best day sound camp and I always love to spend a few afternoons rockin out to some big beats with their amazing party vibe. It's also been an honor to play for their camp on the playa. Was happy to get the invitation to make a new mix for the DISTRIKT podcast. In my usual style I wanted to put together an eclectic set ...

DISTRIKT is consistently one of my favorite camps at Burning Man. Throughout the week, I regularly end up there, always with friends, both the expected crew and always an unexpected re-encounter or two. I just can’t say enough about all the hard work, dedication and passion that pours out of every vibe of DISTRIKT. And it’s all reflected in the proper music you hear and inexplicable feelings you, well, feel. I'm very pleased to release my podcast with such an amazing group of people. Thank you, ...

This year was my first year back to the playa since 2009 and my first year to make it out and participate in the shenanigans of the new camp. I have to say, it was quite spectacular and I want to thank the governors and everyone in the camp that donate countless hours to make it all happen. I think this turned out to be one of my most enjoyable (for me anyway!) sets to date on the playa. I had a great time in the booth and I hope you all had a good time on our dance floor. Enjoy the set and we'l...

A big thank you to all of the hard work put in by the Staff and Volunteers at DISTRIKT. It's a wonderful thing to watch an idea become reality through months of hard work, sweat, inspiration, elbow grease, jameson picklebacks, booty shorts, saws-alls, careful planning, sledgehammers, air horns, stencils, semi trailers, emails, fundraisers, volunteers, power drills, beer...lots and lots of beer, and of course music, love and you. Simply put, you are what makes DISTRIKT one of the most glorious pl...

What an honor to be part of such a ridiculously epic experience. And the bar gets raised again... The vision, dedication and music curation over the years from the entire Distrikt (Deep End) family has delivered what can no longer be described in words. It must be experienced and for all those that give of their art and intention I am blessed to be in your company. My very first moment of realizing I had "Arrived at Home" just so happened to be on a dusty Thursday afternoon in 2005 dancing at De...

Every DJ or artist has an event or defining moment that in their mind is the pinnacle of their craft. It's the reason they do and create the things that they do. There can be many reasons and many factors, but in the end, these are the times they relish and look forward to for months. For me, the reason I still dj is the peak time at Burning Man and in particular The Deep End which later of course became the party at Distrikt. I always loved the day party, and this massive day party is what I lo...

Last year at Burning Man, my RV was camped on 4:45 and H. Sure, there was peace and quiet for a change, and the camp was great, but it was so excruciatingly far from my friends at Distrikt, that visiting them felt like going on a field trip. This year, I eagerly over-compensated for last year’s geographical fail, and I plotted our RV virtually on the Distrikt dance floor, and closer to the speakers than any RV in the Distrikt camp. My approximation to the sound gradually developed a new ability ...

When people ask me about Burning Man, I always tell them my favorite thing is that it gets better every year. Everyone comes back wanting to beat their previous year's contribution. More experience, more desire, and more creativity means the best place on Earth. For me a major highlight is obviously my set at DISTRIKT, and I hope you enjoyed it. Here you go! Set List: 1. Our Music (&Me Remix) - Animal Trainer, Otoridia 2. The Poem (Original Mix) - Maetrik 3. Dope (John Digweed & Nick Mui...

It's hard to explain the feeling of playing the closing set at Distrikt. There really is nowhere else quite like it in the world & all the photos and video that spew forth after the event always look amazing, but don't come close to conveying the electricity that you feel in the dusty desert air. A lot of thought and work goes into preparing for these sets, and yet in the moment I always go way off base, trying to read the crowd and feeding off that electricity. This year's set was epic, yes...

After a few years of completely being content with being a dusty patron of DISTRIKT and labeling it my "go to" place on the playa, I guess this year my number was up to be of service to the vibrant community you have built. I'm feeling quite blessed to have co-created such musical magic with my talented comrades to add to my Burning Man memoirs, as well as those of many others I'm certain. Looking out at that colorful sea of "DISTRIKT-ITES" was beautifully profound. As a matter of fact, I wouldn...

DISTRIKT Saturday Closing Party.... It's something I have had the privilege to play for the past 7 years. It's the set I have been cultivating, maturing and polishing more and more each year. It's the one set I look forward to all year long...over the course of the year putting tracks into an ongoing playlist, just waiting until I can work them into my set at the perfect moment, on that perfect day, for the perfect crowd. But what really makes it magic are all of you, the people who continually ...
