Listen to Hernan Cattaneo’s Sunrise Set from Burning Man

White Ocean

“Burning Man is by far the most interesting festival in the world. Not a music festival, but an arts and expression celebration”

Those are the words noted by Hernan Cattaneo reflecting on another year at the White Ocean camp. White Ocean is an oasis of paradise during Burning Man, and is always graced by the humble presence of the progressive maestro at some point or another.

On Wednesday morning Hernan Cattaneo took to the decks at White Ocean to deliver a sunrise session for the books. It was a set tailor-made to the warm sunrise of the desert, and within the first few moments Cattaneo was swiftly mixing in melodic cuts that set an incredible tone in preparation for a tribally groove that the Argentinian does so well.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy two and a half hours of Hernan Cattaneo courtesy of White Ocean and the man himself.
