DJ Pyro

Pyro has been dancing in one form or another since he was brought to his first underground warehouse event in Philadelphia in 1999, where he fell in love with electronic dance music. A serendipitous meeting in 2007 on the playa at Black Rock City drew him into the blues and partner dance world, initiating a vibrant dance connection in 2008. Since that time, he has traveled to danced, and DJ'ed all over the USA. While his roots are in electronica, he aims to bring a variety of sounds to all his sets, with a general theme of music being ethereal, emotional, and uplifting, and the goal of every set to give every dancer feeling like they just experienced something epic. He also strives for variety to keep dancers on their toes, and to encourage the creativity and experimentation that continues to push fusion dance into the future.

DJ Simon

From Hell's Kitchen in New York to the fiery sands of Las Vegas, Simon has been woven into the fabric of music since he could reach the piano keys. His preteens saw him veer from his prep school roots to the Broadway stage and network television. Though medical school stole him back to the pragmatic, his eternal love for music followed him out to Las Vegas, where he organizes the sometimes-thriving Blues-Fusion dance scene.

As a DJ, Simon is sharing his life's soundtrack; a trove of carefully curated finds that include only tracks that move. Without compromise, if a song doesn't stir emotion, it doesn't make the cut. With this principle, every note is an invitation from his soul to yours as music is a gift equally shared. In this way he hopes to connect the soul from the set to the dance floor for effects both intimate and restorative.

Events:

DJ Elliot

Elliot hopes to craft sets that are steeped in possibility, nuance, and satisfying grit that allow the floor space to find a soft embrace or euphorically stomp out every 32nd count.
