Renowned DJ, producer, curator, and labelhead Lee Burridge today releases his full three-hour Robot Heart set, recorded live at Burning Man 2025. Captured during his Saturday morning sunrise performance, the set documents one of the most anticipated moments of the week on the Playa and offers a rare glimpse into the atmosphere that has made his Robot Heart appearances so enduring.
Recorded as night gave way to day, the set unfolds as a continuous journey, reflecting Burridge’s signature approach to storytelling through music. The performance moves through moments of subtle build and emotional release, shaped by the shifting energy of the crowd and the evolving desert landscape. Alongside unreleased material and personal selections, the set features music from the All Day I Dream catalog, woven seamlessly into the flow of the morning.
The release captures the essence of what makes Robot Heart such a singular environment, expanding beyond the DJ booth to reflect the diversity of people, perspectives, and experiences that define Burning Man. Through sweeping visuals and intimate moments alike, the set offers a wider view of the Playa, highlighting the connections formed between strangers, the movement of the crowd, and the shared sense of presence that unfolds as night turns to day. Rather than a traditional performance recording, it documents a collective experience shaped as much by its participants as by the music itself.
Marking a milestone year for Burridge, 2025, he premiered his documentary Sound of a Dream and released his November Snowflakes EP with Lost Desert on All Day I Dream. The label continued its global tour series, where Burridge headlines each open-air session, with shows across Tulum, Ibiza, London, Rio de Janeiro, Georgia, Egypt, and North America. The label’s 2026 tour will kick off next month in Cape Town and Rio de Janeiro, returning to London in April and more dates to be announced throughout the year.
