It was a wild month - between wishing it was more humid, to not being able to escape rain for days. I was surrounded by house music but had my mind focused on what I will be doing later in August, and what I wanted my soundtrack to be. July is always one hell of a podcast. It's my sound track for the road to Burning Man. This breakz mix will help me put down hundreds of miles with a smile on my fa...

I have spent my whole spring and summer so far working at festivals, traveling all over the country, and doing the Van Life thing. There was a moment a few months ago where I realized - I was going to be on the road, with my van, far far from home - and the opportunity of freedom and adventure was showing itself to me again. I had this amazing feeling, realizing that I would have so much time to b...

SKTTRBRAIN is back with another guest mix for the Kontakt Recording’s monthly. Feeding off the vibe of Kontakt’s December podcast, this old vs. new school set brings out the most paragon and fresh of breakbeats with undertones of acid, bass, electro, synth-wave, vocal, and overall classic energy. Subtle hints of dub, hip hop, jazz, and trance contribute to the atmosphere of Fuse. Experimenting wit...

WOW The procrastination hits hard this month. Two weeks late on a mix I recorded a month ago. Life has been real lately! Festival season is thick for me this year, and I am so thankful! Heres a little list of what I have been up to -  Neotropolis Joshua Tree Music Festival Lightning In A Bottle The Gathering And preparing for lots more later this year!!! Here is the second half of my live set in A...

Yes I have been sitting on this mix for two weeks now without uploading. OOPS! Sometimes you just have to live life as it comes to you and stay away from the computer. I've been having an epic time out here in the Mojave Desert in and out of Joshua Tree National Park. Making lots of new friends and spending good times with old ones. This mix is a cut of the first half of my live set for my friend...

It's my favorite time of the year again, musically - when my big trance mix comes out. Always worth the wait, and for me the only mix I do all year that I don't easily forget. This is another mix with a few years of tracks that have been percolating, and some from long long ago that I've never had the right context for. Last year I swayed to the dark side with hard techno and some total banger tra...

For only the fourth? time ever, I put out one podcast a month for an entire calendar year of this podcast. !WOW! 2023 was a great year for myself and music. Better than I has planned. I started with a lot of motivation and kept it up all year. I really impressed myself this time :) The December mix for 2023 is another one from Orlando with a good amount of tracks from artists I've seen playing in...

This mix is a Part Two to my episode 117 from December 2021. Yes, I've been working on it since I started working on that set, so going on three years. This months mix is a lot of low-fi 12" rips that I grouped together because they were absolute bangers, but were very hard to put in to other sets with better recording quality. Almost none of these could have fit with 117, even though both are vin...
