]]><![CDATA[What Fall has in store...]]>Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:40:35 GMThttps://www.endymienne.com/blog/what-fall-has-in-storeYou're probably keeping track of my Upcoming Gigs already, but in case you missed it, I'm really excited to announce that I'll be DJing again for Duty Free Tuesday at Teote in SE Portland (a 3-hour international sonic journey starting with eastern influenced trap and jumping through cumbia, moombahton, and global-influenced house beats!)

AND I'll be playing again this year at HOWL, Portland's biggest Halloween party (3 stages! all night! so much costume!) before heading down to Austin to see The Magician play on Halloween night.

But first.... my entire set from Burn night at Tectonic, Burningman 2016!

I'm back and ready to hit the road back to Camp Meriweather for one of my favorite events of the year: Pacific Fire Gathering.  For the lucky few with tickets this year - see you at the fire circle Thursday night!]]><![CDATA[Connections: Missed and Otherwise]]>Thu, 21 Apr 2016 20:57:03 GMThttps://www.endymienne.com/blog/connections-missed-and-otherwiseLast night was the inaugural event - our Launch Party - for my Burningman camp's first fundraiser music festival in July - SHIFT!  We sampled some of the food to be provided at our hospitality kitchen for performers and volunteers ("Plates"!), drank booze provided by Tectonic camp's bar, marveled at some of the art from our family and friends, and generally got rowdy with excitement.  
Tickets went on sale just yesterday and are only $75 for the month of April!  The event will be extremely intimate this year, with only 400 tickets and a line-up of 23 musicians/DJs, multiple spaces and theme camps, and a plethora of fire and art installations!

Of course, I'd also be remiss if I didn't make a plug for my missed connections blog, Biffed Connections.  Because, while so many of us are lucky to have camps and events and wide friend circles and, well, cojones, some of us do not.

]]><![CDATA[hitting the road...]]>Wed, 10 Feb 2016 21:00:28 GMThttps://www.endymienne.com/blog/hitting-the-roadIn 53 hours I'll be hopping on a party bus with 19 of my closest friends to go to Bend and play another show with FUN LUV'N!

...but that's not all!  We'll be spending the weekend hanging out, playing music, sleeping, eating, and...

then coming home to catch a plane to New Orleans!  I haven't been in ten years, since doing disaster relief with AmeriCorps and the Red Cross.  I'm really excited to see if and how things have changed all over the city.  I'm also excited to drink booze openly on the street. (It's the little things.)

But then, fear not, because I will be playing a show back in Portland on February 20th - WHITE OUT!  I just picked up some whites to wear, but it's slim pickin's out there so stock up now while you can!

FUN LUV'N goes to Bend for Valentine's weekend!  We're taking a party bus full of friends (and others are meeting us down there!) to The Capitol for our second FUN LUV'N show of many to come!  Hope we'll see you there.

Last week I was the featured artist in the Underground Jungle music blog!  I made them a mix and even included the track list - a rare occasion if you follow me - because hey, it's like a gift, and 'tis the season or something. =)  Enjoy!
