I had an amazing time intuiting and weaving this set at Blessed Coast festival last weekend (Squamish, Canada - August 2015).

The nighttime was cold, but we kept warm dancing together. Prior to getting on stage, I wasn't completely sure as to what tracks would appear in this set, but within moments of starting there was a total clarity, sense of direction, and awareness of union between myself and everyone else present. The rest just flowed so organically.

I really wanted to share it for reflection and others to enjoy, so here it is. Thank you to all that were present for this set, and the festival as a whole. I had a wonderful experience.

Raghunath Khe has been an intrinsic part of the evolving conscious / fringe dance culture for more than 25 years. An innovative composer, producer, and dj, they are interested in the transformational properties of music, movement, bhajan, and community. They have previously released four albums - earlier ones under the moniker Haitchc, and have composed multiple original film scores.

Raghunath is a formal brahmana initiate within the brahma-madhva-gaudiya sampradaya (lineage), having spent several uninterrupted years as a monk studying and serving in temples both in Canada and India. They belong to the sodalities of bhakti, tantra, and ashtanga, and through familial succession, draoidh healing practice.

Regularly performing, teaching, and orchestrating events, they are affiliated with Full Moon Medicine, Back Beyond, Waxing Moon, and Intention Gathering, and are a co-resident dj and organizer at Vancouver's long-running Just Dance night. In addition, Raghunath contributes musically and otherwise to various festivals and gatherings locally and internationally.

A long-time radio presence, they are currently the host and producer of Mantra Radio on CiTR 101.9fm in Vancouver.
