We’re thrilled to unveil the 2025 Pickathon DJ Lineup—a dynamic, all-vinyl crew curated by Portland’s own Rachel Good (aka DJ Stonebunny). Since 2022, Rachel has carefully selected DJs who match the spirit of Pickathon: eclectic, community-minded, and deeply passionate about music in all its forms.

This year’s lineup features 25+ DJs spinning across the farm from July 31–August 3, offering everything from rare global grooves and deep soul 45s to reggae, psych, country, funk, and more. During the day, they keep the vibes flowing across the neighborhoods; at night, the lounges and dancefloors come alive with sets that will keep you moving ’til the stars come out.

“We’re always looking for Pickathon DJs to fill the woods with music as diverse as the live performances,” says Rachel. “But it’s also a great opportunity to highlight Portland’s amazing all-vinyl DJ scene—it’s rare and special to see people spinning records at multiple venues every single night of the week.”

This year, we’re proud to share that Daydream—a neighborhood bar and cultural hub in Portland’s Clinton District—is sponsoring Pickathon’s DJ programming. Their support is helping us bring in high-quality audio equipment to all five DJ stations across the festival. It’s thanks to Daydream that our DJs can share their carefully selected vinyl with the clarity, warmth, and power it deserves.

Tucked away in Southeast Portland, Daydream is a space for discovery and sensory delight—much like Pickathon itself. Whether it’s a crate of records from your favorite DJ’s favorite DJ or an offbeat wine from an unsung region, they celebrate things of compelling origin. We’re excited to have them dream with us this year.

Here’s a taste of what’s in store:

Returning Favorites

• DJ Papi Fimbres – Cumbia king and band member of Orquestra Pacifico Tropical and Dreckig, Papi brings infectious international grooves and high-energy dance sets every time.
• DJ Rescue – A Dandy Warhol and co-host of Get Lost on Shady Pines Radio, Rescue’s sets mix global funk, dancefloor soul, and her unmistakable style.
• DJ disco diablo – Host of Manteca on KMHD, spinning a masterful blend of Latin, funk, and vintage vinyl rarities.
• DJ Greg Vandy – Longtime host of The Roadhouse on KEXP and the originator of Pickathon’s DJ program. Expect deep Americana, rare gems, and road-tested vinyl tales.
• Wayward Girls Soul Club – This all-femme DJ collective spins heavy soul, R&B, and feel-good 45s guaranteed to heat up the dancefloor.
• DJ Maaxa & Serene – A mother-son duo that fuses turntable mastery with deep crate-digging knowledge, sharing rare global cuts and generations of groove.

“I love seeing Pickathon DJs spin with their kids on the farm, teach beat-matching classes in town, run killer record shops, host local radio shows, and hit the stage with their bands,” says Rachel. “Our lineup continues to evolve to reflect not just musical styles, but different experiences and backgrounds.”

New to the Farm in 2025

• DJ Dentside – A staple of Portland’s country vinyl scene and former member of The Rodeo Committee DJs. Expect dusty gems, outlaw vibes, and boot-stomping fun.
• DJ Honest John – Host of Savage Beat on XRAY FM since 2015 and a familiar face at clubs like Hey Love, Aalto Lounge, and Dream House. He brings psych, garage, and raw rock’n’roll energy.
• Impact Sound DJs – A powerhouse reggae collective (Hep Greg, Dumptruck, and crew) spinning deep cuts from Jamaica’s ska, rocksteady, and roots traditions.

“Pickathon DJs also LOVE this festival,” Rachel adds. “Many of them have been coming to Pendarvis Farm for years before they were ever on the lineup, and they’re as excited to see their favorite artists perform as they are for their own sets.”

Whether you’re vibing in the woods during the day or getting down after dark, the DJs of Pickathon 2025 are ready to bring the soundtrack to your weekend—with Daydream helping set the tone.
