For the ancient Egypt, the Eye of Ra was the most important of all sun gods. But for current day Florida, the sun is important, but can drain on the body. Many of you may be wondering what you can do to stay cool, especially if you’re going to be walking and dancing outside all day.
Well we’ve thought about that too. So this year, we’ve taken extra measures to ensure that you’ll beat the heat while you celebrate the sun at this year’s Sunset Music Festival.
Take cover under the new production design which will feature 6x the shade as last year.
Sometimes you just need to take a break and get out of the sun. We’ve added extra shading in our site design so that you and your body can regroup before you go back out to our stages and dance some more.
Take a quick splash into coolness with two newly added water slides!
No matter what age you are, water slides will always be fun. Bring your swim wear and make a splash at Sunset this year.
There are plenty of ways to beat the heat at Sunset Music Festival this year, so don’t miss out on your chance to go. Grab your tickets today!

“Scott was an extremely multi-talented artist, and above all, a great person. His mark on DJ culture is undeniable and we’re going to miss him very much.”
-Donnie Estopinal
Donnie and the Disco Donnie Presents team are deeply saddened by the loss of Scott Hardkiss, a true originator of American electronic dance music.
From underground events in forests, on the beach, or under the desert sky, Scott made an indelible mark on music and was one third of the beloved ’90s SF rave trio Hardkiss, along with Gavin and Robbie.
Together, they helped define the San Francisco rave soundâ€â€a mix of house, techno, breaks, and of course, plenty of psychedelica.
Scott’s contribution to DJ culture will surely be mourned, but it is his heart and spirit that will never fade.
From all of us at the Disco Donnie Presents team, may you rest in peace Scott.

Known for his productions under the monikers Ewun and more popularly, Kill The Noise, Jake Stanczak is a drum and bass, dubstep, electro and house music DJ and producer from Rochester, New York. With a keen ear for sound quality and engineering, Stanczak’s professional production hit the ground running after his father bought him a copy of the software program, Reason 1.0 back in 2000. Since then, he has since gone on to become one of the most prolific, avant-garde producers of our generation, working with many artists including Spor, Evol Intent, Skrillex, Dillon Francis, Datsik and Dieselboy. Amazingly, Stanczack’s work as Kill The Noise garnered so much recognition and support from fans before even having the chance to debut an official solo release. That would soon change in 2010 though as his first EP Roots came out, coincidentally, as the first release for Slow Roast Records, an imprint he co-owns with five time DMC world-champion, DJ Craze.
Continuing on in 2013, Kill The Noise has just announced his first-ever headlining tour, the Black Magic Mystical Wonder Tour with Style of Eye and Brillz providing the primary support, and 12th Planet and Codes will provide support for select dates. We have always marveled at how his productions and performances flawlessly blend different genres, styles and tempos, which is why Disco Donnie Presents is glad to bring a lot of noise to a city near you!
A few weeks ago, we announced that Liquified and Disco Donnie Presents would be embarking on a new brand new venture for dance music fans in the Southeast. On April 20, 2013, Magnetic Music Festival will take place in Atlanta, GA and feature an audiovisual sensory experience with state-of-the-art production, sound, video mapped stage designs, LEDs and lasers all set to the backdrop of amazing music from some of the finest DJs in the industry who you will be learning about through our artist profile series. Today’s profile will help get you acquainted with the #7th DJ in the World, Dash Berlin.
Hailing from Hague, Netherlands, Dash Berlin frontman, Jeffrey Sutorius, is no stranger to the electronic music industry. Working for many influential record stores and being an avid collector of vinyl trance music himself, Sutorius has a knack for creating music for a universal dancefloor. Calling on close friends and producers Eelke Kalberg and Sebastiaan Molijn (responsible for international anthem, “Better Off Alone”) in early 2006, the trio formed the Dash Berlin project and designed an unprecedented new sound of trance, coined as the “Dash Berlin Sound.”
Their 2008 single, “Till the Sky Falls Down,” was not only their debut release, but also their first big hit, as Armin van Buuren added the track to his popular Universal Religion mixed album. Following the success of the single, Armin quickly signed Dash Berlin to the revered, Armada Music label. Now, under the Armada umberella, Dash Berlin is the head of Aropa Records, while still managing to headline festivals around the world. Long-time musician, producer and DJ, we’re glad to have him join us at the first-ever Magnetic Music Festival.
