DISTRIKT

"Prepare yourself for a fantastic journey through deep, vivid soundscapes! Expect tracks full of uplifting yet quirky vocals, lush synth chords and gnarly drops! This mix embodies the euphoric and sexy day-party vibes that dancing under the sun at DISTRIKT during Burning Man is all about. More Beauty than Beast, but not without those monster fist pumping moments!" - https://soundcloud.com/alastair...

This year marks 9 years of the honor of sharing beats with the DISTRIKT family in the dust. Thank you to the entire DISTRIKT crew of DJ’s and vibe creators for having me once again! Every year I am humbled by the scale of the awesome human energy this camp has the gravity to collect. Still running strong as the best day party on the planet! To everyone who shared this special first Sunset on Monda...

In my two decades of DJing at clubs and parties around the world, there is still nothing even close to the experience of DJing at DISTRIKT. The little party that started way way back in the early 2000’s as The Deep End, has somehow turned into one of the best dance floors on Earth. Always my favorite set of the year, this closing set is a mix of some of my favorite tracks from 2017, plus, as alway...

No party like a DISTRIKT party at Burning Man! My first gig at DISTRIKT was 8 years ago and it’s still one my favorite gigs of the year. - https://soundcloud.com/ronyseikaly

Just another sunset in the desert... Or could it have been a special occasion? There was the aerialist hanging from a crane, there were ecstatic screams from every direction, there was family all around me, there was abundant tequila and infinite smiles, and there might even have been some Barry White. The sunsets at DISTRiKT continue to be the best party of the year for me. If you missed it this...

What a thrill to join my friends at @DISTRIKT-sound this year at #burningman and get to play the inaugural set on their stunning new stage! I was feeling the love and went for a joyful house vibe to get the party started. Brought out some of my favorite tracks by @lucadebonaire, @angeloferreri, @reneamesz, @jay-vegas, @stankolev and more. Thanks again to DISTRIKT and everyone who braved the heat t...

"Here is my set recorded from DISTRIKT 2017, Tuesday 3 pm. It was a record hot Burn this year and the day already blazing. With 10 minutes before my set, a mob of clouds rolled in to save the day. The crowd started filling in quickly. I kept it weird, deep, dark, light, techy, minimal with a splash of dub, and always fucking groovy. The Funkworks Funktion One's are always a pleasure to play on, es...

I was looking forward to playing on this stage for years, ever since I was lucky enough to play in 2011. I had a sound in my heart, feet and body, and I just couldn't get it out, not until I let it all out at @DISTRIKT-sound. I have to shout out to my whole tribe who was front and center from the beginning to the end of this set, especially with all that heat! This year was incredible in so many w...

Flash Nightclub in Washington DC is always one of my favorite places to play. This was our 3rd annual DISTRIKT party at Flash and the DC crowd did not disappoint! It was a packed house all night long with people dancing their faces off. This is my live set from July 15th, enjoy! See you on the playa! xo - Kramer Follow DJ Kramer and get more mixes, info and live dates at: DJ Sets & Music : @djkram...

This episode comes from Dance Spirit's Friday afternoon set at DISTRIKT during Burning Man 2016. "Our experience at Distrikt was definitely our most memorable DJ experience as first time burners. It had all the makings of the stories we had heard from other artists, an amazing sound system, lots of friends and people, and possibly everything going wrong technically speaking as the party wore on an...

The DISTRIKT HOLIDAZE party has become quite the tradition for us each December. We get the whole crew together and spend a few days assembling decorations, then descend on Public Works like over-stimulated elves to rock the house. I particularly enjoyed this year's event as I got to hang out with our headliner Kenny Glasgow - quite the character that guy. Enjoy! @darren-grayson

The heat of the day can only be broken by some melodic techno beats, Heavy bass frequencies move the air, coming out of the massive Funktion-One system at DISTRIKT. People are starting to gather up. This is the beauty of this unique Burning Man experience. This is what made DISTRIKT my home on the Playa. - Boris Find more of Boris' music at: https://www.mixcloud.com/blevit https://soundcloud.com/b...

Typically I Dj techno at parties in Detroit but when I Dj in the Desert I prefer to mix at DISTRIKT. The vibe is pure and the Funktion-One sound is an experience all on its own. Feeling stoked to be invited back on the decks. I put on my headphones and took a drink of DISTRIKT's cold Beer then started into my mix. My story is told through music. I wanted to play a set similar to what my Detroit pe...

Who knew DISTRIKT was going to go off on Monday afternoon? Time to get the week started! You really can never prepare for any kind of set at Burning Man because you never know what kind of crowd it is going to be. I pretty much knew with close friends in the DJ booth and a fully packed house it was time to go DISTRIKTBIG for this set. It's always such an honor to rock it out for our brothers and s...

The energy within the blocks surrounding DISTRIKT is palpable, and there is no greater honor than getting to play a set there! I had actually been exploring the area that entire morning, on a quest to find my friends that were camping in the area. I couldn't find them, so I headed over to an already cracking party at DISTRIKT, got on the decks, and decided to send out a little call signal to my fr...

Where words fail, music speaks. To our friends of DISTRIKT, it means the world to us that you invited us to share our sound with all of you beautiful creatures. Thank you for the support, encouragement, antics, love and the dirty beat. You have contributed to our lives in amazing ways. You're our partners in crime and some of our favorite people in the world. Dance like nobody's watching, love lik...

Playing DISTRIKT is always one of my musical highlights at Burning Man. Proper sound system and booth, fun crowd, tasty drinks and nice to see so many friends and familiar faces. As usual, I took the mix in a few directions- bumpin, techy, deep, percussive, some vocals and time appropriate. Thanks for the listen and for sharing the experience. And once again- many thanks to DISTRIKT for bringing t...

Being a part of DISTRIKT and the amazing people who organize and create such a magical experience at Burning Man is an unforgettable honor, to be able to share music and emotion as a DJ. Kicking things off to start the week, I was able to set the tone for all the energy & revelry that will ensue. It's a fantastic journey that I am so happy to be able to start with my set at DISTRIKT. https://sound...

"This one time at Burning Man..." ...you can let your imagination run wild with finishing that sentence. ;) After 12 years of going to Deep End and DISTRIKT religiously for a 'Dusty Good Time', this year I was honored to be asked to play DISTRIKT, which was my 20th Burn *)^(*. After waking up a little later (than anticipated) from a long night at Mayan Warrior/Robot Heart Hookup out in Deep Playa,...

Wowza!! Every year at DISTRIKT just keeps getting better and better. I can’t thank everyone enough for your continued support from all over the world. DISTRIKT would not happen with you and of course our dedicated kore campers that help run camp not only the playa but year round. There where some recording issues on Friday so this is is just the 2nd half of my closing set. It starts out banging an...

It's always a pleasure to be able to play at DISTRIKT. The camp has given so much to me over the years. When I first started coming to burning man years ago DISTRIKT exposed me to new sounds and new music that I hadn't really heard before. I can say for sure that DISTRIKT has been a strong influence on my musical taste and for that im forever grateful. In return I wanted to play something a little...

Three years ago I went to Burning Man for the first time, and camped with DISTRIKT. After leaving, having seen so many talented artists play, I had one thing in mind: To play at DISTRIKT. It was a dream that would become reality one year later. The energy on the dance floor is so unique and contagious, and I am so thankful for the opportunity to contribute to its soundtrack. Here is my Saturday af...

It wasn’t long ago that I never considered DJing or had any knowledge of the underground dance music scene whatsoever. In fact, it was at burning man many years ago that I had my first crash course in exposure to it at all. I remember the first time I came to DISTRIKT in 2010 I was so blown away by the complete wild nature of this seemingly never ending block party that was completely encompassed...

Playing for the DISTRIKT crew is and always has been my favorite part of the Burn. I really loved playing for all the beautiful smiling faces this day and hope everyone enjoys the mix! @djdanmusic Album cover art: Photo by Scott Snell • www.scottsnellphotography.com
