Cactus Highrise
by Timonkey
"Cactus Highrise" is the latest release from Timonkey in his ongoing quest to bring the dreamtime back to the dancefloor. “A festival sunrise over the beach, forest or desert, a walk in the park, or a glass of wine and a book, Timonkey’s music is the sort of downtempo / chillout music that makes gentle moods, soft vibes and simple moments all the more beautiful. ” Timonkey 10 years ago, Timonkey climbed a massive Redwood tree that towered above a renegade party in the Santa Cruz mountains. As the sun rose, he received the inspiration for what has been his mission ever since: to make the best sunrise music ever. Delivering a proper morning set is a delicate art: the dancers need strong energy to keep going, but they are also craving something different by this point in the experience. Timonkey is one of the few DJ/Producers who specialize in providing this "something different" that can give a long night of rave and revelry the closing ritual it deserves. During his years of experience as a DJ/Producer, Timonkey has shared the stage with the likes of Tipper, Vibesquad, Kraddy, Random Rab, as well as Muti Music label mates Ill Gates, Mimosa, and Heyoka. All name-dropping aside, he has reached the elusive goal of a "signature sound": chopped vocals, analog keyboards, field recordings and airy textures alongside massive bass and glitched out beats. Beyond the technical elements, his tracks have an unmistakable vibe all their own: a dreamy, heart-felt quality that makes a delightful treat for party-goers who make it to the dawn.
