Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at Moontribe NYD 1-1-25 Los AngelesWith a heavy heart for my friends affected by fires in Los Angeles this week, I release my set from just a week ago when we started the year with hope and optimism at Subtract and Moon Kitty's super fun shindig to open 2025.
First of all, big thanks to Treavor and Anton for having me. It was so, so fun to play this party. I knew close to half of the people there, had many great conversations and much fun dancing after. Moontribe DJs are no joke! So much talent :). Sarkis was great too! I was happy with my set and am e...2025-01-091h 28
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at Burning Man 2024 - 3 - Thursday 2am at SyncitiumThis is my personal favorite set I played at Burning Man 2024 due to it's uniqueness and the vibes of the camp.
It wasn't a huge crowd but it was contained nicely and people were down for the musical journey with me :).
Musically it's varied and pretty hard to put into a genre but leans techno with some bubbly, melodic, progressive, and ravey energies
Thanks much to Jack Donevan for having me play, I had a blast!
Hope you enjoy, and hope to see you on the Playa in 2025!2024-10-081h 29
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live At Burning Man 2024- 2 Tues 9-11pm at Deaf Granny's KitchenThis second set release come from my Home Camp, Deaf Granny's Kitchen
This was the best camp! So glad I stayed here ❤️. We had one of the best sound systems on the Playa thanks to @Antontumas Danley power. And 90% of the camp was deaf. What a unique experience!
It was really inspiring and interesting for me as a 15-year English Second Language teacher, to have this experience. It was at times like living in a foreign country where I didn't speak the language, which I have also done. Enhanced the feeling of Burning Man being like a different planet
Certainly moti...2024-09-151h 48
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at Burning Man 2024 - 1 - Tuesday 1pm at Vomiting SparrowsI’m excited to release my first set from Burning Man 2024! What a wild ride it was!
Vomiting Sparrows camp was just 2 ‘blocks’ away from the camp I stayed - Deaf Granny’s Kitchen . So I decided to walk over
Halfway there, crossing 8:00 and B, the street had been watered down and I slipped in mud and ate shit. Laughing, I picked myself up properly playafied and continued to Vomiting Sparrows at 8:30.
I found Holly and Chuck quickly, and they were super friendly and hospitable, feeding me tacos and drinks.
Yes, it was Tutu Taco Tuesday there, and yes I wore a T...2024-09-0959 min
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at Moontribe FMG 31-Year Anniversary (3-hr techno set)It was so great to be back at Full Moon Gathering to celebrate 31-Year Anniversary!
26 of those years I have been an active Moontribe resident DJ, but it had been almost 2 years since my last visit. Living in Oregon makes things difficult, the stars have to align just right... and they did!
This is one of my favorite sets I've played! I dug hard through my music, taking advantage of a months-long process of organizing and labeling my entire music collection.
Many thanks to the artist for producing the beautifully hypnotic tracks I wove together on this mix! Without you...2024-07-012h 51
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live Mars Bar 04-14-24 at Watch Our StepThis set from 04-14-24 really exemplifies my deep house curation and mixing style.
For 6 months I've been digging through my collection, resisting the urge to buy new music and instead learning my 29-year music collection better.
Over that time, I went back through and labeled thousands of tracks by energy and feeling and created playlists from there.
The overall energy of this mix is uplifting and dreamy, starting and ending more vocal.
You won't know many, or perhaps any, of the tracks.
The tracks were mixed on CDJ 3000s.
Never synced, never looped, never wasting time with filters and ef...2024-04-231h 49
Ben Annand MusicAnnandeDance Ben Annand live 3-hour Ecstatic Dance Set, Garden Temple, Big Island, HIMy most varied and ambitious set to date!
Hope you enjoy AnnandEdance - I put a lot of thought, time and energy into this interpretation of Ecstatic Dance.
From 0 bpm to 67 winding up to 126 and then back to stillness
Ambient - Downtempo - House - Techno - Broken Beat - Progressive - House - Ambient
It's an extended journey just over 3 hours so longer then normal Ecstatic Dance formet. And more 4/4 than most Edance but there is broken house and downtempo and evena Drum and Bass track in the mix
Mahalo to Simon Smith, Paul Sykes, and Garden Temple for...2024-03-193h 10
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Techno Progressive Mix - Live in LA at Love and Lore by DeseractAnd now for something completely different!
132 BPM Progressive-leaning techno mix :)
I wasn't expecting to be left at quite this fast a tempo but I'm glad I was :) Only my Moontribe mixes tend to get over 130 like this, so it was a rare chance to spread my wings.
Deseract puts on a really cool party and the space, sound, lighting, and deco were all on point here. It felt super underground and all my friends had a great time here.
Hope you like the mix! I'd love to play more sets like this :)2024-02-151h 02
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at House Party Reno Dec 2019This is one of my best set recordings so how come I never released it?
Only because I had released a set with similar vibes right before playing.
This was a really fun winter party - in fact I had a rather sketchy drive home to Eugene in a snowstorm...
Been meaning to put this one out there for a while. In 2024, I'm dedicated to putting out more mixes so here ya go!2024-02-092h 09
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Moody AF Vol 1 (Live at the Big Dirty in Eugene at Secret Sauce)Something a little different for ya. Me at my moodiest. In more recent years I apply tags to my tracks of different vibes so that I can organize my massive music collection better. One of the biggest categories is 'Moody.'
Of course a lot of people going out on Friday and Saturday night to my gigs are out to celebrate, so this category doesn't get as much play live as more funky upbeat rhythms. As such it's somewhat underrepresented on my Soundcloud.
Well not anymore :). I'm dedicated to releasing more sets this year and I see this one as the start...2024-01-231h 00

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at LIB Festival 20-Year - May 26, 2023Excited to release my set from LIB 20-Year Anniversary! Every LIB experience for me seems to top the last.
This year was special as I hosted Camp Tropical for the first time and had my daughter, Cerise, there for the first time since 2019. And it was LIB's 20th year, and a brilliant one!
Huge thank you to the Flemming Brothers - Jesse, Dede and Josh and team for producing the Fest, to Patricio Motta for producing the Junkyard Stage I played on, and to Todd Anisman for the ChinoSound!
I always put a lot of effort into my LIB sets, and...2023-07-111h 06
Ben Annand MusicBugOut Breaks And Techno (LIVE In The Mojave Desert 4 - 2-23)I had a short but sweet time at Bug Out Campout 4: Garden of Dreams on day 8 and 9 of my Spring Break roadtrip with my daughter, Cerise.
This set went down at midnight on a pretty frigid desert night, did my best to warm people up with some break and then some techno. Ok, fine, there's. little house in there too :). Something for everyone, hope you enjoy!
Overall one of my faster sets, starting at 130bpm and creeping up to 132 by the end.
Many thanks to hosts Neil Bombshelta Black, Jason Deyarmin and Julia Daemia Styczynski for putting together a lovely...2023-04-191h 43
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live in San Diego March 10 2023 at House Music FridaysIf you don't like house with vocals swipe left lol. This set for House Music Fridays so my musical direction was clear. So again, if you don't like my vocals you can kiss my *ss- just kidding you can check back for my Studio Mix at the end of March which will be minimal techno with a side of breaks :)
Big thanks to Matthew Brian for having me at House Music Fridays which was a super vibing night.
A note on technique. Vocal tracks are tricky and often have a lot of melody on top of the vocals so not...2023-03-141h 43
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand 2023 Studio Mix 1 - January - StrengthHere's to new beginnings! This mix - titled 'Strength" is part 1 of a 12-part monthly themed studio mix series that I've committed to releasing this year.
I mixed this set in October 2022, when I began feeling my strength again, in my amazing DJ Lounge in Eugene, Oregon.
The picture was taken on January 1st, 2023 at Bucerias beach near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
2022 was a huge challenge for me. The best things about it were my DJ career thriving post-pandemic, my daughter of course, and other than those, just getting through it.
The hardest things were that it was the first year devoi...2023-01-271h 20
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live in LA at Subtract/Sublevel Open Air with Doc Martin - July 31, 2021One of my most emotional mixes, this set was recorded Live at Subtract open Air party just outside of LA (Valley) in an absolutely chaotic time for me. Two days after my only lover of 16 years and wife of 12 told me she didn’t love me anymore and I went to LA with my daughter to process it. It was also my first time back in LA since moving from there in 2019, and first time seeing/staying with my family since the pandemic. Unsurprisingly I had trouble keeping myself together in these circumstances.
So suffice to say there are a lo...2022-11-141h 40

Many thanks to @Rithma for the beautiful mastering job!
Lightning in a Botttle 2022 was my first big festival after the pandemic and it was HUGE - more than 30,000 people. I played Thursday night and there were only 3 stages going and already 18,000 people there. This set was played on the Junkyard stage to I don't know maybe 1500-2000 people - a secondary stage became pretty main, and the mains of course were nuts at this fest.
I knew exactly where was going with this set, coming out of the...2022-11-141h 30
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand - Moontribe 29-Year - June 2022 Part 1Here is part one of the infamous Moontribe 29-year kimono set that I previously may have made some waves about - this part is on the house side but trippy for the desert...
This set had many challenges. I made a great playlist for it from my entire collection, did everything except export to usb, and then my logic board failed the next day. Bye bye playlist!
So I rebuilt, as we do. But with limited time my rebuild was limited to the last year of music, as well as some brand new music. On top of that, I had...2022-08-181h 02

Alright alright I’ve got a new set for you and it’s part two of the infamous Moontribe 29-year kimono set that I previously may have made some waves about but hey, Tropical is my party, waves and kimonos for the win!
Why am I posting part two first? A few reasons, some background first. This set had many challenges. I made a great playlist for it from my entire collection, did everything except export to usb, and then my logic board failed the next day. Bye bye playlist!

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live FMG March 2022My return to Moontribe after 4 years! Hey it ain't so easy to pull off living in Oregon... but good news, my venue booking business has me in California at least once a month so far this year :)
Anyway, it was great to be back! For a March Full Moon this was a little more intimate than I was expecting - still a few hundred people there on a beautiful Thursday night though!
Musically this is on the faster,(130bpm) harder end of my range. I did also slip in some breakbeats at the beginning and in the middle.
A lot...2022-04-011h 56
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at Beora Oct 2014, In Memory of Matthew ParkeyLike many friends, I'm missing Matthew Parkey from the physical world today.
The soul of the desert, Matthew was always friendly and inclusive. Always. At a time when I felt I was told to be playing this way or that in the desert, he allowed me to be free. At a time when I was not feeling included, he made me feel home.
His events, to me, were the first notable series of desert events outside of fmg. They were not perfectly organized by any means but they were definitely organized with love by one of the most loving people...2022-01-211h 56

Third in the order was Ben Annand, Tropical's resident DJ and founder
From Ben, this was my favorite set I've played so far in 2021. I've been playing selectively at just 1-2 parties a month since things re-opened, and have been enjoying the chance to focus on each one more.
It is truly my goal to make each set unique and and the very highest-level I am capable of. Striving for perfection we always fall short but still achieve a higher result than if we...2021-10-121h 23

Along the way, they discuss the tragedy of the Taylor and Ben Matheson relationship, getting accidentally set on fire and a moment of playing creative tennis in a waiting room at a clinic.2021-09-2352 min
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at the EndUp SF Sept 19 2021 at Real Deal Party FeelThis set played at the historic EndUp in San Francisco for the Real Deal Party Feel by Listed, Living, and the Grass is Green
It was a party full of feels! TYSM Gunita, Nikita, and everyone who made it happen. DJs have the easy job at a party, but your work is not unnoticed.
Playing a dj set in between two live acts - Moniker and all-time fave Dubtribe - I wanted to bring the energy up in an appropriate way, bringing some vocal energy and funkiness but also winding back down before Dubtribe.
Of course I could do zero...2021-09-221h 25
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Cascadia 20192019 was quite a year for DJing in retrospect, wasn't it? This was one of my best sets and experiences, it was previously released on @Innerflight Soundcloud.
What's different now? WAV quality and downloads enabled. And being one of my best sets and crowd energies it belongs on my Soundcloud too.
I will have a brand new 2021 mix coming out soon, hopefully from Live at Subtract this weekend :)
Mark your calendars for Cascadia NW Fest July 22, 2022 weekend - one of THE best locations for outdoors at the masonic park near Granite Falls an hour north of Seattle!

Ben Annand MusicCoral Chaos (Techno) Ben Annand - Studio Session # 1 - May 2020In my new studio mix series I want to offer some mixes in different genres, and with a little different feel than you might get from a live mix.
I've been exploring tracks I don't play out much or else in a long time, that are not necessary dance-driven but more interesting conceptually...
This first mix is a techno mix which starts gently and escalates quickly before coming back down to a nice close.
It would be a lot to ask a dance floor to have this much change in energy but this isn't for the dance floor necessarily
It's...2020-05-231h 14
Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live in LA's Boom Boom Room Feb 21, 2020Loved this party and this set weaving underground house and techno for my friends in Los Angeles!
Some of my best mixing between the two genres, overall it was techno but also brought some house elements and a few classics for this Lover's Ball around Valentine's Day.
Speaking of classics, I played four 90s tracks and the old-schoolers defintely recognized Mateo and Matos' Release the Rhythm as one of them... but not so much the others I'd say :)
Can you name them before I drop the track list at 1000 listens? A special prize awaits :)

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand 2020 Techno Set (Live At Technosaic In Sacramento 1-11-20)I'm on a techno kick in January and good timing because it's been a while since I put out an intense one like this on Soundcloud.
When I lived in Socal, Moontribe was the place I could play like this :)
But can't make that much anymore.
I never would have thought I could get away with this set in Sacramento. But the Lost in Groove team has cultivated something special there. And it was full moon!
Sacratechno!
Proof is in the pudding
If you cultivate a crowd with good underground music they will grow to love it

Tropical Since 98Ben Annand Live NYE 2020 at Tropical Synergy Los AngelesTropical Synergy was a highly intentional, peaceful transition from 2019 into 2020 and featured a fully gender-balanced lineup of 12 djs handing off male to female over 19 hours :)
A collaboration of 3 crews, Tropical, Wulfpack, and Chinosound on acres of land tucked into a canyon just 30 minutes from LA
This slightly eclectic journey from Tropical's founder Ben Annand explored house and techno between Mightykat and Crescendoll from 330 to 500am on the first morning of 2020!

This set is from the genre, "FUN" - was played live at the FUNderware party at the historic Eagle House in Eureka days ago :)

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Live at We Are All One Festival Year 1 - Las Vegas, NV - Nov 3, 2019Well well well It's my 100th mix released on Soundcloud and damned if it's not my favorite!
I worked unusually hard on this set for 3 reasons -
(1) I wanted to play mostly new music and that takes more time to understand and prepare
(2) the multitude of great djs on the We Are All One lineup ignited my fire to stand out
(3) the massive effort to detail by the organizers on the event made me want to give something comparably special in my music.
The result is something I'm truly proud of! I've been adventurous with music lately and this mix...2019-11-061h 55

This Surprise set was laid down completely unplanned by Tropical founder Ben Annand Sunday night from 800-930pm
The surprise was that Christian Martin’s flight was 6 hours late - not the surprise we wanted - but Ben had to play his set time in a pinch!
Everything worked out great as Christian still played an extended set afterhours ;) . Hopefully we can post that one soon ;)2019-09-111h 11

In his zone from deep house to techno, Ben Annand pairs impeccably smooth mixing skills with a dynamic style that keeps the music moving, often flowing over breakdowns and always spending most of his time in the mix.

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Tropical 20-Year All Vinyl Set September 29, 2018A little story about this musical foray,
my first vinyl set in some 4 year :)
Twas my last as resident of the city of LA,
my home base my entire dj career :)
And perhaps yet even more topical...
It was the 20-Year Anniversary of Tropical!
So you see it was a special mix!
All music is from 95 to 2006.
Great tracks sure are timeless!
To ignore them would be spineless
So in this particular musical trip
Expect some pops, scratches and skips
these were favorite tracks back in the day -
And that means they got heavy play!

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand Labyrinth Festival Japan 2008 (part 2)What did we do before Soundcloud existed? Well we started with mixtapes, then moved to mix cds for a while. Things started going digital around 2005/2006, and there was a gap before Soundcloud was founded in 2007 and of course took some time to become standard for djs posting live sets.
In that little interim we had a bulletin boards called 4Four. It was here that my mix post of a set I did for Frisky Radio in early 2007 caught the attention of Labyrinth Festival in Japan, and I was asked to play this exceptionally good event for the first time in...2018-12-131h 02

Got on the decks right away, just my friends on the dancefloor. Kept playing through sunrise, other people kept coming out to the dancefloor
Kept playing. Stopped right about noon. My first 8-hour set.
This is the following year! It went about 8 hours as well, I have about 5.5 recorded. This is the first half.
In these days I recorded straight to CD, each block is 1 hour 20 minutes and not seamless...2018-09-222h 35

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand June 2018 Deep House Mix (Live at Soul Tribe Eugene)After a 3.5 hour techno set which ended at 8:30am at Gorg-O-Mish Afterhours in Vancouver, B.C., 400 miles of driving including 2 naps at rest stops... I played this fabulous deep house set at the Hifi Music Lounge in Eugene, Oregon 11:45pm-2amm :)
I am fully dedicated to music now and even though the travel was crazy, I really wanted to play in this fair town that one day I expect to call home.

Ben Annand MusicBen Annand At Gorg-o-Mish Vancouver, Canada July 2017 - Part 1In the middle of summer tour 2017 which included some many great festivals and outdoor events, the stand-out Dj experience for me was right here at a sweaty underground called Gorg-O-Mish in Vancouver, Canada.
When it comes right down to it, a small room with the right energy can become one of the most focused dance experiences...
Super high quality recordings were done in house, one mic-ed up to capture crowd noise, so I did include some of this energy towards the beginning and end.
I will be back at Gorg-O-Mish on Saturday, June 2nd, and am releasing this mix to...2018-05-251h 05

Moontribe CollectiveBen Annand live at Moontribe October 18, 2013, in Memory of Nico Rojas20+ years of Moontribe has meant many ups and downs, we have seen weddings there, a death, and a couple of memorials for community members who have passed on way before we wanted them too. This was the most intense of all Moontribes for me as we celebrated the life, and came to grips with the recent death, of our sweet and loveable friend, Nico Rojas.
This 3-hour set was played between 10:20am and 1:20pm on Saturday, October 18, 2013. Emotions ranged from light - being engaged in a marshmallow fight with friends on the dancefloor, to heavy - open grieving on the...2018-03-182h 49Moontribe CollectiveBen Annand live at Moontribe in the Mojave Desert, Monday, August 19, 2013This is a mostly techno set from Monday, August 19th Full Moon Gathering in the trusty Mojave Desert. After a late start this was actually recorded from 2:15 to 4:30am. The photo up now is by Christopher Kristoff, it is from around 6am.
For this set I dug back a couple of years - sometimes I buy something for Moontribe and it gets lost because I have nowhere else to play it in my current set of gigs. So this about half and half mix of my current techno favorites from the summer and things I've been storing up.

This set is one of my personal favorites and is on the dreamy trippy house side. What was really fun for me was playing with the different textures and warped melodies and getting them to interact in a melty, dreamy flow. Well that's how I saw it anyway :)
