Relax and enjoy the ride



"I got asked to DJ at a friend’s party in Berlin. It was an 8 hour long event and liquid LSD was supplied. Because of the length of my set I needed to bring a lot of records and so I ended up bringing things from many different genres... Having taken a fair quantity of the drug myself I was open to a whole new approach to DJing, one that integrated all of my musical interests into a new cohesive whole, that again, had a narrative.

“My experience during the acid party moved me deeply and although I left it knowing I could never touch the drug again, I also carried with me this new sense about DJing, about working with recorded music, and about creating improvisational narratives with it... Plus I like dancing, both as a spectator and a participant. It uplifts my spirit." (Gavin Russom)
