Performing under my artist alias Jay Kobo, this is my contribution to this year’s Illogic Summer Fest, hosted by Illogic Radio in Rome, Italy this past Tuesday. Inspired by the iconic pandemic-era video of an Italian DJ lifting spirits by playing Alice Deejay – Better Off Alone from his balcony which started off a chain of "balcony raves" around the globe during lock downs, I crafted this set as an emotional homage to that powerful moment of resilience, and connection.
The mix is a celebration of unity, love, and peace—opening with vocal trance and timeless uplifting anthems that evoke the warm, carefree energy of late summer, then building into a driving techno finale with full-on “let’s rave” energy. Massive thanks to the Illogic crew for the opportunity! This set starts at 140 BPM ends at 150 BPM.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
