Human Scrapbooking on a Battleship. The most unlikely combinations sometimes hit the hardest.

After sixteen years of bodypainting across the country and lighting up so many venues in Philly, we finally hit the apex: the most famous battleship in history.

A glowing creature world, dancers going wild, and a crowd that locked into the Human Scrapbooking energy instantly.

We cracked Charlotte wide open this summer with our experience. Philly booked it and everyone said hell yes WE’RE SO DOWN! And now we’re taking that same transformative energy to NY next.

Ithaca on October 3.
Philly is calling our name again.

This Thing is becoming a traveling experience.
Let’s see where it lands next.

Much respect to the crews behind this massive night.

Human Scrapbooking on a Battleship! Incredible “I don’t know what this is, but I’m IN” energy all night.

Here’s what we painted and stamped and glittered and stickered. Thank you Philly for such a lovely time.

Next stop for the Human Scrapbooking Experience: this Friday, back in Charlotte at @starlighton22nd.

apologies for slightly late post (lots going on!!!) but i wanted to reflect on an EGGCELLENT 🥚 evening. this festival has been in my backyard for such a long time and it felt SO GOOOOOD to finally get a chance to play.

as party people, i think we should be on the endless search for proper vibes in dark spaces with committed dancefloors. dig dub had all of the above. there was a distinct air of rave energy that i think a lot of us are seeking.

it was such a pleasure to be surrounded by friends from around the region. i could tell that folks were jazzed for my art, and i appreciate the hell out that. thank you big dub 💞💞

I’ve been so focused on work that I almost forgot to appreciate everything happening in between. It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle, but moments like these remind me to slow down, laugh, and spend time with people I genuinely enjoy being around. Here’s my little summer recap part 2 so far. ☀️❤️

Forever grateful that I found this place and all of its people words couldn’t expressed just how much I love big dub.

Big Dub Festival Big Dump, Phone edition.

Big Dub 2026 was entirely way too much fun I couldnt even process it at the time while I was rocking, maybe I was TOO present with the task and duty at hand.

As soon as I plugged the usb in, i blacked out, i knew if i was sitting idle, all I would do is think about Jay who should have been there with me, I woulda bawled my eyes out and that would have not been very cash money of me.

As soon as I arrived on the mountain and got closer to the stage, all of the memories started flooding in and my eyes got spicy and watery. I had to play immediately or I was gonna be in bad shape, so i started earlier than my intended set time.

So I had to just fucking GO. Adrenaline kicked in and I relentlessly spanked the speakers with club music (you know, the thing that brought us together and the thing we fought for as if Club Music was our kingdom and we were knights of that kingdom, aka Club Crusades). So much booty was bounced, so many cheers of joy and laughter, so many smiles. A reminder of my why. There just something special about an intentional DJ set, where I could be Musho in my fullest and truest capacity. This shit is more than just gigs to me man.

I’m usually my bigget critic and am painfully hard on myself woth my performances, but I know for a fact I smoked the fuck out of that set and can’t nobody tell me shit. In Jay’s words “I’m built like that pussy” and I had to demonstrate and represent what the fuck it is we do.

Ripping newports and Ripping decks, thats the Jay Kountree way.

Jay Kountree forever 🕊️🕊️🕊️ Club Crusades for Life ⚔️🗡️🛡️

We love and miss you dearly, your presence was felt on the mountain and you know I had to go harder than a blue chew swigged with a honey pack on the set.

Life got so serious for me lately and I needed ts real bad. Cathartic and intentional release from playing my favorite music and being surrounded by friends and fam that have been around since the start of my DJ journey.

Rocking this set in honor of my brother @jaykountree where we would run this as a duo for multiple years, only this time I had to rock solo. Played my fucking heart out to make sure I could instigate maximum amount of jiggle physics. Much love to rave mom @nicoletossas who’s witnessed my growth over these past decade of my DJ journey and continually putting trust in me to have the duty of making feral ravers, shake that booty.

some moments that I look back on and smile from the first ½ of the year. I never imagined life would be where it is today. spent 2026 so far at more shows than I can count, surrounded by people who have brought me back home to myself. I could go on and on about how this year has been about healing after losing myself, but I’ll leave it at this: you only get one life to live and you need to make every day count. surround yourself by people who bring out the best in you, challenge you, and show you love. we have no time to waste. say yes to everything even if it’s scary. talk to strangers, make friends, bet on yourself. it is all worth it in the end 🫶🏼 grateful for all the places music has taken me.. so so so many friends not pictured here, but I love you all with everything I’ve got xoxo

happy international women’s day
very grateful for all of the awesome women in my life
I don’t know where I’d be without them

now more than ever its important to be a girls’ girl
we can’t let the ideals of the patriarchy influence us to succumb to the jealousy and competition that divides us

we’re all in this together
look out for each other
take care of each other
support each other

big love to all the ladies going out 💖✨
