Osmosis in the Trees

Steeped in Miami’s B-boy culture, it was classic electro & Miami bass that conceived Danny Daze’s love for the experimental Dutch electro & Detroit Techno scenes of the 90’s. Labels like Schematic in Miami, Interdimensional Transmissions from Detroit & Viewlexx out of The Hague set the foundation for Daze.

Daniel Gomez adopted his Daze moniker early on at his mother’s suggestion. Practicing on a set-up she bought him, Daze was spinning at weddings by age 14, funneling his earnings into vinyl to play raves on the side. That eventually led to producing his first tracks in 2004 on a cracked version of Fruity Loops and later that year, he jumpstarted a electro / techno white label called Omniamm.

Daze’s risk-taking & punk approach is at the core of everything he does and it’s a big part of the ethos of his current label, Omnidisc. “We’re not searching for chart topping hits. We’re more interested in curating a catalog of music you’ll remember when you walk out the door. We seek out tracks that are as raw as possible & welcome imperfections. We love the charm of an unpolished record”, says Daze. It’s also this freeform & experimental approach together with an element of surprise that sets him apart from the pack as both a DJ & Producer.

As a DJ, he prefers to express his versatility across long sets. He is known to cut & weave from Electro to Techno into Italo Disco, into a record by Yazoo deliberately intended to provoke a reaction. “I once played a Paula Abdul record at Berghain… basically, it’s like it or leave it,” says Daze. As a producer, his output ranges from releases on Kompakt’s Speicher series, to remixes on Phantasy, Comeme, Monkeytown & more… but he also reaches far beyond techno & has created original runway soundtracks for award winning American streetwear designer John Elliott & the Australian brand Song for the Mute. “I’m obsessed with the detailed manipulation of audio. It’s at the core of how I make music & I constantly feel the need to involve myself with projects that challenge & allow me to think out of the box… whether it’s creating a single recognizable noise for the new MacBook, or an advert for a fashion campaign blending original music with sound design,” says Daze.

Danny Daze’s radical approach to preserving music’s integrity while breaking its boundaries may seem volatile, but it’s not random. “I’ve always gone against the grain & it’s important for everything I do to feel authentic. There isn’t much difference between Daniel Gomez and Danny Daze.”

Osmosis in the trees is a 4-5 hours drive from Portland depending on traffic. There will be ample free parking on site. The road leading up to the venue can get a bit congested so we recommend getting there early! Carpooling is strongly encouraged - you can coordinate rides in our rideshare discord.

There are 2 options for lodging for the duration of the festival:

1. CAMPING
Camping is included with every Osmosis in the Trees admission ticket. Camping areas are located throughout several large fields directly adjacent to the treehouse area.

We all love to party, but we all need to rest sometimes. Please be mindful of your noise in camping areas during the early morning hours.

2. RENT A TREEHOUSE - SOLD OUT
For those seeking the ultimate experience, a limited number of bespoke treehouses are available for rent, offering an elevated perspective amidst nature's embrace.

Check-in begins at 3pm on Thursday and all attendees must depart the property by 3pm on Sunday.

On arrival, an attendant will check your ticket and direct you towards a camping area or your treehouse.

Respect for the site is essential and we need all attendees to help us maintain the natural beauty of the grounds - this means no glitter, confetti, etc. Leave no trace - ample trash, recycling, and compost cans will be provided. Fully clean your treehouse or campsite when you go. Do not leave any trash on the ground, period. Cigarette butts must be fully extinguished and properly disposed of. Please do not throw butts in the fire pit. This is our first time working with the venue, let’s do this right so we can keep coming back.

SMOKING
Smoking is allowed in the tree village area. There is absolutely no smoking in the fields or woods surrounding it, including the stages. This is no joke. The surrounding area is extremely prone to wildfires and you don’t want to be the jerk who causes one. We will very actively enforce this policy and reserve the right to immediately eject anyone who does not comply. Finally, please do not smoke in the treehouses. It is against property policy.

There will be ample portable toilets situated throughout campsites and in the treehouse village.

We are happy to announce the addition of a sauna during the festival this year. Keep your sauna time to a max of 20 minutes. Please shower prior to going into the sauna and sit on a towel whenever possible.

There is a beautiful natural pool on site. No lifeguards on duty so please look out for one another. Swimming after dark is not allowed.

Don’t forget to bring a towel and a bathing suit if you’d like to take a dip.

Food cart vendors will be available every day with affordable meat, vegetarian, and vegan options. You are welcome to bring your own food to prepare in the camping area.

There will be a care tent on site stocked with first aid supplies, Narcan, ear protection, fentanyl test trips, gum, and more. The care tent also provides a safe, comfortable and soothing space for anyone feeling overwhelmed.

If anything or anyone makes you feel unsafe or overwhelmed, find one of our care team members for support. At night, they’ll have green glow bracelets at the back of the dance floors. They carry earplugs, gum, glucose packets and electrolyte tablets. If you need help during the day, please approach the care tent, security, or a bartender. Don’t hesitate to seek their help for issues big or small.

We have a wonderful and supportive community. Let’s all look out for each other.

HYDRATION & REST
Drinking water will be available at various sites throughout the property. Remember that humans physiologically require sleep.

Cash/Card/ID - Some vendors and food trucks accept cards and electronic payments, but some beverage vendors may not. Since there are few outlets for phone charging and cell service is limited, vendors may have trouble processing payments as well. As a result, we recommend you bring cash to the event. In some instances precious metals may be accepted as well.

Waterproof camping tent, sleeping pad, blanket/sleeping bag - We don’t expect rain, but be prepared for it.

Warm clothes, extra socks, shoes & rain gear - daytime temperatures in Takilma in early autumn are usually quite warm, but the nights can get chilly.

Refillable water bottle - Free drinking water will be readily available throughout the site.

Flashlight or Headlamp - There will be ambient lighting throughout the grounds, but much of the site will be dark at night and you’ll walk through the woods a lot.

Swimsuit and towel - There is a natural swimming pool on site. Swimming after dark is not allowed.

External battery - Outlets might be hard to come by. Charge up and come prepared.

Sunscreen, bugspray, wet wipes, and anything else you need to feel comfortable camping outdoors.

A good attitude - All are welcome at Osmosis in the trees. Please treat attendees and staff in a kind and respectful manner. This is family.

Absolutely No: Weapons, dogs or other pets, fireworks, confetti/glitter, personal sound systems or instruments, glow sticks, etc.

Open flames of any kind are prohibited. This means no candles or fires at your campsite, folks. If you prefer to bring and cook your own food, you may use a camp stove, but please, please remember that this area is a tinderbox. Cook on a sturdy flat surface above the ground. Turn your stove off immediately after use. Use good judgment.

A bad attitude - Discriminatory behavior, cruel or abusive language, aggression towards others, burdensome entitlement, and leering will get you kicked out and banned from future events.

No pets, children, or people without tickets. Seriously, NO DOGS, there are farm dogs on the property that don’t take kindly to unfamiliar animals.

It’s the end of the summer season, so come prepared. This year we have added Club Membrane as an indoor stage, but otherwise the other 3 stages are outside. If the weather is looking really bad, then we will make an effort to have covered areas as much as possible to keep everyone comfy.

Historically there is a very small percentage chance of rain in Takilma for this particular weekend.

Security will hold onto items turned in for lost and found. If you lose something, find a security person or other event staff (i.e. person with walkie talkie) and they will help you.

If you would like to create any media related to Osmosis in the trees (photo series, written features, etc.), please get in touch for approval beforehand.

Please reach out to get involved. We would love your help.

It takes a village.

Thank you to our community and volunteers that make all of this possible :-)
