I know you're all talking about this, but let me add my 2 cents. I've been lucky to watch you put these 2 albums together over the last few years. Your passion and craft is unbelievably infectious and inspiring and I feel very fortunate to have peered behind the
Curtain…
Were you as swaggy as this kid at 3 years old? Probably not. I love this scene and making people dance, but sometimes music steps out and reaches ears you don’t expect it to resonate with and it’s so rewarding! Go kid go!!!

😂 I love this. Bless them.

Was going to play longer until that prick flung that drink, so instead I wrapped up on time and bounced. Still had a great time though. Everyone else was epic. Why anyone thinks it's a good idea to throw things like that is beyond me.

So this genre called House Music has been around since the 1980's. So many people love it, but most people seem to have WILDLY different thoughts about what todays form of house music really is. So it's made me question......
.....what do YOU think House Music is?
Your ass looks lost a.f. 😂😂😂

Finish a track, love it, sit on it, tweak it, totally change it, start to hate it, shelve it, forget it, find it, love it, rejig it, remix it, test it, love it, mix it, tweak it, mix it, tweak it, tweak it, master it, change the kick, tweak it, doubt it all, release it.
Nah mate, end of the world can’t come this soon. I’ve got far too many repetitive beats still to release.
Yes. Yes we should.
This just came up on my timeline. Smash it lad!

This might be the most intelligent investment I’ve ever made as a DJ.
175,000 people today are flying home from Vegas today, while avoiding all social media until they get home, then ordering junk food and watching Game of Thrones in bed whilst questioning all decisions they’ve made over the last 4 days.
😂😂 Feels accurate. Definitely feeling the love, thank you!
My set from the Yuma Tent at Coachella would be a pretty good Thanksgiving treat, no? ;)
Man, I gotta tell you something about last night at Hard Summer. You know, firstly, wow, thank you so much for so many of you turning out to dance with me. It's a pretty humbling experience getting to perform to people like you every weekend. I try not to take it for granted.
We’ve heard it said in countless songs, but genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, I do like that bass deep down low.
Let's throw something mad together!

Come by tha crib
Shout out to the occasional miserable bastard that stands alone in the front row of shows, surrounded by happy ppl, staring at me for the duration of my set like I’ve bitten the head off their kitten. I don’t know why you are there but I appreciate you. I TRY to make you dance.

To all you tagging me, sorry, I’m not playing EDC this year. Must be someone I collaborated with.
With everything that's happened this year, it's really made me want to throw the biggest humanly possible house event(s) in N.America. Dunno where. Dunno how. Marking this tweet though as a statement of intent that it will happen.
Goodnight.
We’d love to. Someone find us a special venue.

Petition for @chrislake & @followthefishtv to bring that b2b to LA asap
It feels slightly surreal to know that in 48 hours I get to make people dance again in real life. I'm very thankful things are opening up again. Much needed by so many of us right now.
Haha this is epic. My Sister found this in my niece’s work she brought home for the end of her school year. I think the picture is pretty accurate huh :)
Well that was a first. Just watched someone on my flight spark up a blunt! This should be interesting when we land...
Thank you Las Vegas!!! was a very very memorable one. Can’t believe how many of you came out to dance with me. These are the shows that remind me how far this scene has come in America and I’m proud to be a small part of that. Thank you again.
Fuck there was a vibe last night in that tent at Escape! Thank you thank you thank for dancing with me!
Literally everything I’m dreaming of right now.

Why is it always easier to just write a new idea than take the time to finish the last 5% of a track? I keep putting off finishing several tracks because of this and it's SOOOOO dumb.
Can someone help me understand the real justification of these charges on shows? Really. It’s a joke.

BREAKING: Ticketmaster-Live Nation reports record quarterly earnings of $6.2 billion, fueled by an all-time high in combined ticket and fee charges. Ticketmaster fees now cost as much as 78% of a ticket.
Stay With Me - Alright so finally, this song is out. Let me give you a little background about this puppy. So I was chilling with Gita (my wife) at the beginning of the week leading up to the Shrine shows I was away to play with Fisher in February. smarturl.it/BBR_StayWithMe

Jealously is something that is rampant in our industry. These words from Patrice Baumel should be read by all. Get rid of negative thinking and stay positive. Thank you Patrice.
7000 in San Fran. Epic vibes. Unbelievable city. I should probably work out a way to release this thing eh.

So I've been in this music industry around 19 years roughly. I've been active on social media for say, 12 years. I get so much positivity overall, say 99.9% of it. But one fuckwit can write something to just trigger me and just ruin my day! It gets easier but it still sucks.
Little edit for my sets. Thanks for the stems so I could do it properly. Original is brilliant for the bass heads!

NEED THIS LASERBEAM REMIX
Would’ve never predicted @chrislake dropping @rayvolpe at Black Book in the Park

Here's a note to my free tweeting colleagues. It would be better to put all that energy spent on critiquing other artists music you don't like, into making the sickest game changing music yourself and moving things forward how you can! Be the right kind of noise
Thank you that was mental! Last night was a trip. My new single ‘Stay With Me’ is out this Friday.. Pre-save to get it first! #EDCLasVegas #StayWithMe

Music making is such a weirdly stupid and frustrating skill. I just spent months going though various different micro variations of exactly the same idea, trying to make it 'perfect'. Weeks of work. Gave up for a sec, started something new, finished it in 4hrs. It bangs. wtf
While in Vegas I dragged & out with and all our crew to a karaoke bar and sung our asses off to Outkast - Hey Ya and Lou Bega - Mambo no.5. One of the best nights out ever 😂
100 million. Mad. I remember being nervous about releasing this one because it was less ‘club forward’ than the other stuff I was releasing around this time. I decided to not send it to any DJ’s at all as I thought they’d hate it, but I loved the song regardless and wanted….
The older I get, the more positive I try to be, but I can honestly say from the bottom of my heart, I fucking detest celery.
Probably going to tour 7 days a week for months when all these restrictions lift!
My first show in March to cancel for Covid was the 2 shrine shows in LA. If I'm not the 1st artist to play when it opens up again I'll be gutted. Just putting that out into the world.
Thank you - that was mental. Proper vibes in the slammed Pink Tent. New #AntiUp out Friday :) cc #HardSummer

it’s almost here…. Me + - ‘A Drug From God’ out globally on tomorrow. 💥🤲🤲
Feel free to let me know in the reply’s why I’m an asshole for not releasing this sooner! Hahahaha chrislake.lnk.to/ADrugFromGod

I know it’s been a great weekend when my body hurts from head to toe and my feet are fucked. What. A. WEEKEND!!!
I’m currently living what I dreamt of as a kid. I’m dreaming today of what tomorrow will look like. I’m not 100% convinced about manifestation but I am convinced about my own intent and how it affects my future, I DO intend to do what seems almost impossible today. Dream big.
We can’t get over last night. Unreal. Seriously. Unreal. Probably my favourite set ever? That’s going to take a lot of beating. tonight, round 2. We should have done 6 of these fuckers. Don’t want this to end!!!! 🤪
Anyone else stressed up to the tits with everything going on at the moment? Please remember, no matter what is going on, take a moment to breathe. Sounds simple right? It is really. 3 seconds in, 3 seconds hold, 3 seconds out. Try it for a minute or 2. It may help.
I've got a headache from squinting this morning.
In other news, I'm playing EDC Vegas.
I am gutted I didn’t sneak onto the decks in the Yuma to drop ‘in the Yuma’ though. Fail 😂

Anyway, I'm a week away from turning 40 years old. I'm one of those people that reflects rather than celebrates birthdays so I guess I'm in a very reflective mood, but still, all I want to say is thank you for helping make this DJ a very happy man this week. Chris.
Can’t blame a man for getting excited.
P.s. beat bangs

I’m surprised to say it, but from a show point of view, this summer is turning out to be WAAAAAAAAY less shit than I thought it would be at the beginning of the year. Fuck yeah. We dancin’
Every single day, me.
Write a track in 15 minutes, spend 6 months trying to adjust a hi hat or kick drum to taste, repeat.
Well, hope you enjoyed that. The afters is still raging at casa Fish and Chris 😂. Nothing but love for Coachella.
Los Angeles, it’s been a while, yeah? Well, I’m back! 14th March - . #HowsYourEveningSoFar
Pre-sales are live Thursday (these will go QUICK), General on-sale is Friday. I want all my fans to get their tickets, so keep your eyes peeled. See you on the dance floor!🦉💥💥
I'm not there to fuck about!
