Dutch Star Podcast: Recent Episodes
Dj Dutch Star
DJ Dutch has been rocking San Francisco for over 20 years. An old school dj of the early rave scene, a wizard behind the decks. Influential in creating the Area 51 raves, Thump Radio and (((Thump))) and now Opulent Temple.
Recorded at the infamous Opulent Temple during the 2009 Burning Man Festival. Dutch performed after Dj Dan, Carl Cox and Christopher Lawrence warmed up the incredibly huge audience of 15,000 + to an energy rarely experienced. It was epic!
Dutch recorded live using CDJ1000's on a Pioneer DJM800 at the Opulent Temple Sacred Dust party, November 2010. The mix is solid throughout. It was one of those nights where everything goes perfectly. If you were there, you know what I'm talking about. The temperature in the room went up a good 10 degrees.
I've been experimenting with a bit more sample work than normal, clearly apparent in the first half a dozen tracks. The rest is pure raw power tech. I even mashed up a couple Glitter tracks at the end before rounding it off with that new John Digweed track. I am diggin' it and I'm sure you'll be diggin' it with me. Watch your bassbins with this one, it's mastered hot.
Side A of my first real mix tape. Recorded in my living room in 1992, this tape made revolutions around American dance scenes in the early 90's rave days.
Recorded just after midnight. Nine hundred of San Francisco's hippest crowd dressed in all white attire. This party was a major contribution to Opulent Temple making it back on the playa for 2010.
Recorded live around 4:20 am at a secret underground location in Los Angeles close to the airport. The dance floor was wall to wall and the sound was Turbo Sound and the entire place was decorated with Hollywood props.
