summer of 2019. it's 12:55am and i'm at edc las vegas about to drink on the job with g at the parliament art car. it happens to be so windy that the kinetic field had to close. we were that crowd's next option as we were literally right next to it. this is the most people i've ever imagined at an art car. without having said a word, i signal him for a cigarette. i'm not a smoker but i sarcastically do this every show with him so he knows the drill. enter second stage of our routine: rock paper scissors. i lose to him for the hundredth time in a row. now that our totally non-plur, bad-vibes intro has finished we start actually doing the thing. i work the faders while he stands on the dj tables. he works the faders while i spill 3 beers within 10 minutes (sorry sian). the whole hour was such a vibe that besides almost losing my socks and sandals from dancing the only words said between us during the set was "holy shit" and "hey play your track move so i can drop my dumb daft punk bootleg right after"; the rest was horseplay and kandii trading. no words can describe how fun this set was for us, the best i can do is say what happened. rest in peace you idiot. no tears only techno now.

thanks to everyone who was able to share videos of the actual set so i was able to tell what tracks were played. i'd say the tracklist is 85% accurate (i may be missing two, three tracks maximum, and had to remake an edit of his); and the order and transitions minus fx maybe 70% (i was able to group tracks in 2's and 3's and mix the groups together according to however i remembered the set feeling like).
