BRC: Panda Lounge Magic [Burning Man 2011]

This one is dedicated to the incredible crew behind the Panda Lounge, a skybar mounted atop a big yellow school bus in the heart of Black Rock City. From the cool mojitos served by day to the paper lanterns glowing softly by night, the love and attention to detail put into the space created one of the strongest, most positive vibes I've ever experienced. It was an absolute gift getting to share in that energy from behind the decks with an amazingly receptive audience.

The mix contains some of my favorite tracks from a few epic sets, including an overnight marathon into sunrise and a long afternoon charge leading up to a pristine desert sunset. Things start off deep and moody, building into dancier jams and a cheeky original produced specially for the occasion, finally finishing off with some bouncy tech beats and basslines that I rarely find the occasion to play out.
