Dinner of Champions

Dec 30th, 2023

The Rickshaw Stop, San Francisco, CA

Pre-NYE is the best. No traffic, no lines. We had an epic turn out including my parents! I played a jazzy set to open and then turned it up for my first time playing a b2b set (linked below).

Jun 24th, 2023

The Rickshaw Stop, San Francisco, CA

My first time playing an actual venue — plug and play, no setup needed. It was incredible. The most I've prepped for a set. I'm happy with this one.

Our Airbnb came with a full DJ setup! Less of a set and more of a haphazard mess. Figured I'd share because... why not?

Houseboat 2022: The Cold Year

May 27th, 2022

Shasta Lake, CA

Normally I play late night. This year I prioritized a daytime set. I had the chance to play a lot of chill melodic tracks which I usually don't get to play. It worked out because it ended up being extremely cold at night.

Months of planning. Custom visuals, OBS on a dedicated server, a DSLR for video, room lighting. Hit a peak of 45 viewers including my grandma from Pakistan! Ask me about how my friend accidentally unplugged the whole setup to charge her phone.

Danzhaus, San Francisco, CA

Our second ticketed party. We were nervous if we'd breakeven but on the last day, we sold 50+ tickets bringing us to over 120 attendance. Great vibe & experience. BYOB doesn't hurt :)

Houseboat 2017: How I met my wife

May 27th, 2017

Shasta Lake, CA

Our 3rd year hosting the houseboat party was special for two reasons. It was when I met my wife and it was the first time we brought real DJ gear instead of playing music from a phone. Also, drone video!
