Every year the Space Cowboys team up with the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park to celebrate Yuri's Night and the party is always one of our most memorable events. Yuri’s Night is a global celebration of humanity’s past, present, and future in space. Parties and events are held around the world every April in commemoration of April 12, 1961, the day of cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin’s first manned spaceflight, and April 12, 1981, the inaugural launch of NASA’s Space Shuttle.

This is my set as recorded live from the silent disco at this year's Yuri's Night celebration. I hope you enjoy it.

Big thanks to the California Academy of Sciences for the hospitality. For more information on NightLife at the Academy of Sciences visit http://www.calacademy.org/nightlife or check out their fan page on Facebook.

And thanks to the Silent Storm Sound System for providing the fabulous silent disco. For more information on Silent Storm visit http://silentdis.co/.

I admit it. I'm an urbanite wimp. I don't ski or snowboard and I rarely venture up to Tahoe in the winter time. But this year I decided to brave the snow, fresh mountain air and natural beauty of North Lake Tahoe to play SnowFest with the Space Cowboys at Squaw Valley USA.

Of course, I didn't leave the back deck at Squaw all weekend except to go to my room to refresh my drink, but baby steps, right?

This is my set as recorded live from Saturday afternoon on the UNIMOG at Squaw. It was an absolutely gorgeous day. Plenty of bright sunshine and temperatures in the 60s (not ideal for sking or boarding, I was told, but perfect for drinking and dancing!). As there is always a mixed crowd at SnowFest, including families with young children, I made sure to stay on the lighter side of house and breakbeat. I picked these tracks because they're fun, don't contain any profanity and even people who aren't big electronic music fans can appreciate them. Enjoy!

Track List
1. The Grooveymen (Grooveymain Mix) - Melchyor A
2. Vibe Alive - Joey Youngman, Chuck Love (among others)
3. Wanna Dance? (2011 Hot Mix) - Joshua Heath

*NO*vember is one of those buzz words we nightlife/Burning Man types in San Francisco like to use around this time of year. October (or "Rocktober" as we affectionately refer to it) is always jam packed with can't-miss parties, street fairs and music festivals that render most of us pretty useless come November. I certainly fall into that category. So in observance of *NO*vember I'm taking a little time away from clubs and music festivals to get some much needed R & R and indulge in some of my other interests.

Attempts to stay away from my decks at home, however, have been futile as evidenced by this tech house & breakbeat mix that I recorded last weekend to help me through a Saturday morning jog. I kinda liked how this one came out and I thought you might too, so press play (or download) and enjoy! Oh, and Happy Holidays!

Track List
1. Beautiful (Tom Middleton Liquatech Remodel) - Robert Babicz
2. Funktribe - Quivver

This is my set as recorded live at the Treasure Island Music Festival’s ‘Silent Frisco’ on October 15th.....I was pretty happy with how this one came out considering it was mixed entirely in my headphones. As it was a silent disco, and there was no amplified sound, I didn’t have the benefit of monitors in the booth. This was just my second crack at playing a silent disco, and all things considered, the mixing isn’t too shabby.

Festival crowds can be tricky because you're often playing to a pretty wide variety of musical tastes and it can be a challenge to find a style that appeals to everyone. But I was lucky to have a fun, enthusiastic dance crowd that was really appreciative of the track selection. A big thanks to all the boys and girls that packed the dance floor for my set and made the Silent Frisco such a memorable experience.

Many thanks to Robbie Kowal and Sunset Promotions, the folks behind the silent disco phenomenon in the San Francisco Bay Area, for the booking. By the way you’ll have the opportunity both at Ghost Ship on October 29th and Breakfast of Champions on January 1st to experience Sunset Promotions’ Silent Frisco. Make sure you put those two events on your calendar.

This mix is a compilation of songs, both new and old, from Burning Man Rites of Passage that I found most inspiring. I hope you enjoy these tracks as much as I do.

A very special thank you to my good friends at DISTRIKT (Piper Hook, Kramer, Ben Seagren, Ronnie Altoonian, Matt Kramer, Paul Geddes just to name a few) for allowing me to be a part of such a wonderful camp this year. The epic daytime parties at DISTRIKT were surpassed only by the amazing teamwork, camaraderie and friendship that made them all possible. Long live DISTRIKT!

Also, a big shout-out to my pal, Elite Force, who has always been a huge inspiration to me. The track selection for this particular mix was heavily-influenced by several of Shack's sets on the playa this year.

To my friends in The Nutz Camp (McB, Dr. Rick, CBrads, Lisa Campe, Debi, Altomare, Laura Z, Fonzie, The Davis Brothers, Ana and the rest of ya) this one's for you!

Finally, many thanks to Misha Kutuzov for the breathtaking photo from Saturday afternoon at DISTRIKT. To check out more of Mischa's work visit http://public.fotki.com/theemperor or http://facebook.com/misha.kutuzov.

The second volume of my Breaks for Black Rock City series is my set *as recorded live* from Public Works in San Francisco on Saturday, July 23rd, 2011. The Space Cowboys and Brass Tax teamed up that night to throw an absolute barn burner to benefit Pete Hudson's CHARON Project which will be featured at Burning Man this year. For more information on CHARON and Pete Hudson visit http://www.hudzo.com.

After a one-year Burning Man hiatus, I am excited to be heading back to the playa this year with my good friends at DISTRIKT. All four of my previous Burning Man experiences took place at 9:00 and F when the camp was called The Deep End and many of my closest friends remain key members of the camp today. So it's only appropriate I return to that familiar spot, where I've had so many wonderful experiences, for my fifth Burn.

I'll be spending a lot of time with my beloved Space Cowboys too over at 4:45 and Esplanade. And I'm looking forward to playing for my friends at the Nutz Camp, Disorient, Pink Mammoth and the Dancetronauts. I'll be posting a complete list of my Burning Man gigs at djzachmoore.com in the coming weeks. Stayed tuned!

Finally, make sure you add this mix to your list of things to pack for the playa. It may prove usefulf for the long drive to Black Rock City and back! Enjoy Boys and Girls!

I recorded this mix on April 30th fully expecting to drop these tracks that evening at The EndUp for the DISTRIKT fundraiser. But at the last second I decided to play breaks instead and none of these tracks made it into that set. I still had this mix on my iPod a few weeks later when I made my very first trip to the Lightening in Bottle festival in Southern California. And it's a good thing I did because it turned out to be a big part of the 'soundtrack' at our camp that weekend.

I stayed with a group of Los Angeles-based friends who team up every year at both Lightening in a Bottle and Burning Man to form a fabulous camp called 'The Nutz'. I had a fantastic time at L.I.B. (due in a very large part to the hospitality of The Nutz). To anybody looking for a festival similar to Burning Man but without many of the inconveniences that come with camping in the extreme heat and alkaline dust of the Black Rock desert, I highly recommend L.I.B. And that's not to say L.I.B. doesn't stand on its own merits. While similar in some ways to Burning Man, L.I.B. has its own unique vibe that makes the festival a truly worthwhile experience. I don't know why it took me so long to make it happen for the first time. One thing's for sure, I'll be heading back next year and I'm going to try to get myself into the line-up too!

The title of this mix is both a tribute to The Nutz (Kathleen, Lisa, Rick, EJag, C-Brads, Debi, Nicole, Scott and Kelly) and a reference to the name of the road where we set up our camp. Enjoy Everyone!

A couple years ago I had the privilege of opening for Dylan Rhymes and Meat Katie at Opel Productions’ seven-year anniversary party at Kelly’s Mission Rock. The gig was just one of several golden opportunities Syd Gris has handed me over the years and I’ll always be thankful to Syd for helping me get established as a DJ in a very deep talent pool here in San Francisco.

This tech/progressive/electro house mix is a live recording of my set from that night.

Enjoy, Everyone.

This is a spontaneous tech and progressive house mix I threw together a couple weeks back on a cold, overcast Saturday afternoon here on Gough Street. No prep or pre-programming went into this one and it was recorded in a single take. The title is of course a nod to my crew, the beloved Space Cowboys. This mix also serves as the first of what I hope will be many on this new podcast.

After six years I decided it was time to shelve the Gough Street Sessions project. I was ready for a change both in name ("Gough Street Sessions" doesn't exactly role off the tongue) and in programming (I don't plan to feature any guest DJs on this show). As you may know, I already produce two variety podcasts, 'The RIPEcast' for The Space Cowboys and 'DISTRIKT'. There just isn't the time to produce a third and I've been a wanting a place to feature my own content for some time now.

If you're a fan of my style then this is the podcast for you. If the appeal of The Gough Street Sessions for you was the variety and you're less interested in my stuff, no worries. I invite you to check out The RIPEcast and/or DISTRIKT if you haven't already. Both shows are available (for free) via Podomatic and iTunes and both feature a wide variety of DJs and musical styles.

You may be wondering what will be become of the old Gough Street Sessions content. Don't worry. All of those mixes are available to stream or download for free from my SoundCloud page: http://bit.ly/gough-soundcloud. And in a few weeks I will also have a page for that content on my website www.djzachmoore.com.

I'd like to thank all of you for supporting the Gough Street Sessions project over the years and I really hope you’ll continue to follow me on this new podcast. Enjoy the mix, Everyone!

A very special thank you to Jem Panufnik for the artwork for this week's episode. To check out more of Jem's work visit www.jempanufnik.com

This is a live recording of my set from Opulent Temple's Sacred Dance at the Bentley Reserve in San Francisco on March 12th. Sacred Dance was a re-creation of the legendary white party the Opulent Temple crew throws at Burning Man every year and it was quite an impressive production (as all OT events are).

You'll find heavy doses of Krafty Kuts in this mix (as usual) including two of his re-rubs, 'Bangkok' and 'Saxone', that have found their way into many of my live sets over the last year or so. You're also going to hear new tracks from my good pals, Dylan Rhymes and Shack (a.k.a. Zodiac Cartel), which have been fitting very nicely into my sets lately. Finally, thanks to my favorite up-and-coming producers, the Dublic twins of Budapest, for the two fantastic re-rubs they passed along to me for this set. Of the 12 tracks in this compilation, their re-works of 'Turn Up the Volume' and 'Cal State Anthem' got the most enthusiastic response from the crowd that night.

Many thanks to Syd Gris and the whole Opulent Temple crew for inviting me to play Sacred Dance. And, Syd, I'm sorry I couldn't find any white pants in time for the party.

Enjoy the mix, Everyone.
