RH Sunrise 2024
This set wouldn’t exist without the dusty souls who participated in Curiouser & Curiouser, bringing their creative energy in full force.
Thank you to Burning Man, Robot Heart, and all the camps, artists, musicians, and creators who continue to shape and inspire the vibrance of the playa.
Each burn is its own journey—for me, this one was extra-dimensional.
Life as a Labyrinth
Santa Marta - Colombia - Feb 9 2023
…It was night time and the full-ish moon was smiling down as the river flowed and all the creatures made their distinct sounds. A fire warmed our bodies as music feed our souls.
Inspired by the human experience that unfolded in a beautiful container surrounded by Mother Nature. This set was a celebration of the journey’s ending … or was it the just beginning ;) I was in a complete flow state, I knew two tracks I wanted to start with and two towards the end. Tunes were pulled from many different pockets of my collection…
159 Final Final
October 29, 2023, we said our final goodbye to 159. A building that is dear to our hearts and the birth site of the Robot Heart community. We gathered there to celebrate life, love and beats.
Closing set, 11AM to .......!
I played many closing sets within those walls, but this “final final” hit differently. I poured my heart into the music, weaving through pockets of tunes that felt just right for that moment—to honor Geo, the space, the neighborhood, and our dusty roots.
Big thanks to Benji for making this celebration happen and to all the family and friends who brought the Halloween heat!
The red door is etched in my soul, and seeing it on the playa this year was truly special. (Thank you, Zach C., for taking the lead.)
RH Burn Night 2022
…During my burn night set, she sat on my booth monitor as I played from the heart. We shared tender moments as some lyrics hit home for us. I chose music that reminded me of life, love and dust. My hopes were it would do the same for others. Two of my favorite memories were when I played a track with the lyrics “falling for you” and the man fell. And the track that followed - I’ll let you figure out why ;)…
RH Burn Night 2023
It was one for the books! Flooded with up’s and downs.
This was the oldest man in the history of Burning Man I believe; with extra days on the Playa we all got a little wiser. It was wonderful to see people come together and weather the storms.
Big thanks to my Robot Heart camp for making this after the rain party happen. Much love to everyone who came out to celebrate with us.
This set is dedicated to everyone who made to the dust and to the ones who rocked the mud.
RH Freeburn 2021
The “FreeBurn” was so needed! To celebrate life - we needed to reflect, dance, laugh, cry, and let go - in the place we call home…
…I feel blessed to have been able to express myself musically on our magical bus after such a long break.
4 Geo <3 !
Robot Heart w/ Swamy
Burning Man... Burn night!
Jason Swamy has been my friend for 30 years now, He is the one who introduced me to electronic music.
Mix that with playing on a bus that has one of the most dialed sound systems in the world and being surrounded playa love and dust.
Needless to say these are very special to me.
Burn Night 2012
This was the year Swamy and I played as one. Our prep was a simple nod to our dance floor stomping days at Twilo (Classic NYC club). I always preferred Digger's bass driven bombs and Swamy gravitated towards Sasha's ethereal gems. So we each channeled our heroes back in the day and called it a night. A 4 hour Odyssey awaited...
Burn Night 2013
I think this note sums it up nice...
"Hey brother, I’m listening to your and Swamy’s 2013 BM Robot Heart set. It remains on of my all time favorite sets. I absolutely love it, I absolutely love you, and I just want to absolutely blast some love your way <3!
Thank you for being and making magic"

Burn Night 2014
This is probably one of the most emotional sets I have ever been a part of... A tear or two may have been shed.
Other B2Bs
John Dill b2b Justin Shaffer
TTITW – June 2023
A fairytale themed evening in the woods in Northern California, amidst an open minded group of creatives.
We enjoyed the opportunity to explore musically beyond some of the normal dance floor and venue constraints.
T.S. Eliot leads us off with a excerpted reading from the Dry Salvages.. and off on our adventure we go.
Idylic (John Dill b2b iIlich Mujica) -Burning Man 2023
Back in 2020 we were in a cabin in the mountains in the middle of the pandemic amongst new learning DJ’s. It was a celebration of illich’s birthday and the first time we played together.
We already loved the music each one of us played and it was an unsurprising moment of “let’s b2b!” back then. The flow was full of melodic groove with a rich track collection only found in the library of 2 well-seasoned selectors.
