Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
The lesson I keep learning over and over, is to be patient and stay true to what excites and inspires you. That is your North Star, and all that matters. Also, there are no shortcuts! Rushing the process, comparing yourself to others or expecting to keep a certain timeline will only dull your unique sparkle.

About the mix: This mix is actually the first 2 hours taken from a 3 hour set I played at Sisyphos in mid June. My set time was 5-8am, and I was extra revv’d as I love nothing more than a wake and rave. The sun was rising, and I think this new morning light holds so much hope and excitement for the new day ahead. Plus, I love the cozy Sisyphos cafe, having a hot tea while playing might just be my favorite way to approach a set. As for sounds, the tracks fit my mood ~ fast, cruisey, not too heavy for the early morning. Plus few ID’s and friends in the mix!
