AWOL Sun Weekend Happy Hour with Cajmere vs Green Velvet

Your work/school week is over. The weekend is finally here. And while you have this brief moment of freedom before Monday rolls back around, your vacation with AWOL Sun is what you’re really looking forward to. Need to relax? We’ve got just the thing.

For this edition of AWOL Sun’s Happy Hour, we’ll be pairing “Bermuda’s national drink” with a mix from one of our talented artists that will take us to la la land. Decompress from the stress of day-to-day life with a beverage and some great music – because sometimes, that’s really all you need.

Oh, and don’t forget – AWOL Sun sold out well over a month in advance last year, so be sure to reserve your four-night experience soon!

Cajmere vs Green Velvet – Cajmere Live from Kaballah Festival Brazil

Green Velvet, Cajmere, Curtis Jones – whatever you want to call him, there is a reason why this legendary DJ and producer still packs out shows all around the world after over 20 years. His Cajmere Records/Cajual label are synonymous with the rebirth of Chicago house and his Green Velvet moniker is synonymous with edgier techno.

This mix is has a perfect combination of Green Velvet’s techno-funk prowess as well as his deep house skills. We love how he dropped the rework of his hit song and cult anthem “Flash,” a track that Nicky Romero sampled not too long ago. When Green Velvet drops the classics, fans are never disappointed. Listen as the legend takes you on a journey…
