Cosmosis 022: April Fools Edition (Mystery Night #4)

This month I played only Taylor Swift! Just kidding! April Fools! I played whatever the heck I want. – I think I have some music waiting in digital shopping carts, and could play some new tunes. “22”, to me, holds some magic in that it’s two 2’s, and 2 is my favorite number. So, come experience the Mystery of “22”! Ooooohhhoohhh!

Cosmosis 021: Drum & Bass and Jungle

This crate has been staring at me, waiting, growing patiently, like a huge black panther, waiting to pounce on me…But what that panther doesn’t know is that I created it, it follows my commands. And like a panther this genre can move smoothly and gracefully, and can also attack with supreme ferocity! Like much of the music of play, there are genres within genres, and so it takes a lot to explore. Expect a long set, with some lighter, ambient, smooth and soulful stuff, all the up to some techy, aggressive, sci-fi, neuro, and dark vibes and everything in between. Join me on a full forced dive into the world of Drum & Bass and Jungle.

Cosmosis 019: Kick-Off 2025 / New Year’s Day Set

The Year is 2025. Technology is eclipsing humanity. Corporate oligarchy is running rampant in the United States. Truth has lost meaning. – We have but one choice: we have to save ourselves. It’s time to brighten our glowing hearts. Put on our work gloves. Find strength in vulnerability. Love our fellow humans. – So, let’s kick-off the year with a soundtrack that embodies new possibilities, creates a world with a sharper focus, and increases our capacity to live out our values, all while having fun! Won’t you join me?!

Cosmosis 017: Post-Election (Mystery Night 3 – Nov 2024)

I was leaving the theme for this one up in the air because we didn’t know what the election would hold. Turns out we knew the results… So, the session became about three things: 1) creating peace, calm, and healing, 2) letting out some anger and frustration, and 3) trying to fill our reserves for future good works and love. I hope this helps you. It helped me.

Cosmosis 016: Harvest Haze (Oct 2024)

Let’s celebrate the transition in seasons and the Fall harvest. This month, I will be spinning a selection of tunes that characterize the shift from Summer to Spooky season. It won’t be full-on Halloween vibes, but you may notice some hints of darkness, tension, and uneasiness, yet we will still be tethered to the not-so-long-ago warm and sunny vibes of Summer. It should be interesting! Join us!

Cosmosis 015: Tribal Tech (Sept 2024)

Expect percussion-driven tech house, with world music flavors. Afro House, Latin House, Iberican, Brazilian, Indian, etc. — I know this genre can be problematic: overdone, cheesy, and is, at it’s worst, cultural appropriation… So, I hope to honor these musics, their unique and dynamic rhythmic structures, and sacred sounds through tasteful selections and rock-solid mixing, respectfully joining East and West.

Cosmosis 008: Actual Techno

Cosmosis 008: Actual Techno (Feb 2024) – It was time to bring the techno heat. Proper techno, driving techno, funky techno, deep techno, warehouse, bangin’, and peak time techno. Shooting for an uptempo set (130-140BPM), but I won’t be going nearly as fast as some of the stuff “the kids” are dancing to these days, but I do mean business. — Put on your black clothes and let’s get into some heavy grooves!

Cosmosis 007: Breakbeat and Electro

Cosmosis 007: Breakbeat and Electro (Jan 2024) – Yo yo yo!!! I’ve been excited about this one from the beginning of this series. I finished 006 with a breaks track to set us up for this one. — Name says it all, but you can expect some late 90s/early 2000s rave-y Florida Breaks, Progressive Breaks, Funky Breaks, b-boy stuff, heavy stuff, modern stuff, and some real, straight up Electro (classics and new releases) sprinkled in. — Start the New Year off right! Let’s hit the Breaks!
