Jonas Rathsman Crafts A Masterful Three Hour Sunrise Set

Thank you Jonas Rathsman. And everyone Else please listen, this is how you do a sunrise set...

Nation of Gondwana is easily one of the most underrated festivals in Europe. It is situated in the Schönwalde-Glien municipality which is only about an hour’s drive from Berlin, a 2-day camping festival with one of the most stunning settings you can imagine. It even features a massive dam which flanks one of the stages.

This year’s edition just finished and as usual it featured a who’s who of the world’s best. One of those to play was Sweden’s Jonas Rathsman, who has been pretty quiet of late. As he told FACT Mag in this video, he had some time away from touring to build a new studio in his hometown of Gothenburg, turning an old chemistry lab into a state-of-the-art music studio.

Well, he is back now and gracing the stages again - and we are all the more better for it. At Nation he was tasked with the Sunday morning sunrise set and... SPOILER ALERT... he delivered in a massive way. With this 3 hour mix the Swede has shown just how underrated he is, starting off slow and working his way toward an euphoric climax. This is how you do sunrise sets.
