Back 2 Play

July 2025

In these two episodes of Behind the Beats, we take you into a night that feels like a dream. We woke up at 3:00 AM, half asleep, to do something we had wanted to do for a long time: play a DJ set in a playground, just before sunrise. Why a playground? Because we wanted to go back to our childhood — to play without rules, without an audience, just doing what feels right. Only this time with turntables, cameras, and beats instead of swings. In this vlog, you’ll see the work behind the live set: the carrying, the setup, the silence of the night, the tension before the first track — and yes, even the mistakes, because Steve 2day made one during the set. But that’s exactly what makes it real.
