Flashback to the first time Cable Management teamed up with .live on visuals for a set a few years back + the first set jammed with us (without a rehearsal) before was born. 🖤

Bit of a full-circle moment as the 4 of us take the stage together tonight for a jam in Sedona.

For a bit of extra context, Cable Management was originally born as a bit of a joke. Each year at June Jam, I had a final block of music I needed to fill on Monday morning, and the idea was that it would just be made up of whatever DJs in the crew were still standing. But the first year I put it on the schedule, no one showed up except for .earp. So we decided to own it solo. A couple of weeks later, we were back on for a wedding and met , and the 3 of us clicked so well we knew he had to be a part of whatever Cable Management was.

I still remember our first jam session and the hilarious mess of cables it was. We had truly lived up to the name.

In the years that have followed, the “project” has become a bit more serious — especially as Monty and Danny have gone into crush mode with SZN in the Sun — but the whole thing is still built on a foundation of lightheartedness and fun.

So tonight, as we play a set together for the first time in 2 years at .center , we’re bringing that same sense of play to the stage — with a very big emphasis on fun. 😎

Excited to see what comes out of this! Full run of show ⤵️

is bringing some tasteful selections to the Blue Bar at tonight. Planning for a properly deep crate dive with .earp... These extended sets are where our creativity shines and how we got the name. Where we're going, genres are guidelines at best. 😁

Music and Me

Christian Cortes (SoundScrybe) is a music content creator with a predilection for psychedelic music and electronic event production. His creations can be experienced through his work as a writer, DJ, music label manager, talent agent, marketing specialist, and music event producer. He works out of the desert southwest city of Tucson, AZ.

As a writer, he has been commissioned by electronic music artists around the world for everything from biographies and press releases to speciality release content and in-depth writeups. His words have appeared on websites such as LostInSound, Reality Sandwich, and The Untz, as well as on dozens of musical collections by international artists on labels Shanti Planti, Street Ritual, Desert Trax, Merkaba Music, and Dreaming Awake Records.

As an event producer, his journey began as an event writer and photographer who quickly discovered a talent for project management and artist relations after entering the electronic music event industry in 2015. His portfolio includes work at Symbiosis, Serenity Gathering, Lightning in a Bottle, Gem & Jam, and key production roles at Coalesce NYE, Juniper Jam, June Jam, and Convergence at Arcosanti.

As a DJ on international psybass label Shanti Planti and American bass label Street Ritual, SoundScrybe crafts his sets for the sonically adventurous, blending textures, intensities, and rhythms into a seamless narrative that traverses the landscapes of visionary and bass-driven music. Drawing from the realms of deep and psychedelic dub, mid-tempo bass, breaks, and halftime DnB, SoundScrybe’s musical styling bends and defies the boundaries of genre culture while endlessly probing the surreal and shapeshifting frontiers of high-fidelity sound design.
