When I first heard this track in the middle of the first lockdown, i instantly heard the support sounds that I could offer this prayer.

Culturally isolated in my home town, I took to the internet connecting with my favorite artists around the globe.

Contacting Ape, he was happy to provide the stems from the original recording.

And so the Amoriri - Tribal Bass Mix was completed through remote collaboration from Sth America to Australia.

A deep honour to work with you Ape Chimba and Ebyän.

When I first heard this piece by Hang Massive I instantly heard subtle trap grooves flowing in and around their beautiful Hand Pan melodies. This was mid-winter 2021 Melbourne lockdown. In my morning mycelium walks, the sun kisses my skin and blesses me with its warmth.

Music bloomed hope in me for the Sun's Rays to once again shine on humanity as it passed through its darkest passage of the pandemic. And so it seems fitting now as we move on beyond the most challenging parts of the pandemic, for this sunlight to shine for you with its release.

Ecstatic Dance Melbourne 'Earth Grooves' - Temple Step DJ Set feat. Madhu Honey (16 January 2022)

A mix made for a Psilocybin Ceremony in July 2022 with friends. Deeply honoured to be asked to create the soundscape for the journey.

Temple Step - Psilocybin Ceremony DJ Mix, July 2022

A Remix of Deya Dova's Isles of The Great Goddess from the Planetary Grid Music Collection. Originally recorded live inside the 5,400 year old stone circle, Standing Stones of Stenness, Orkney Islands Scotland. A powerful, super sensory and emotive downtempo bass invocation to elevate the global dance floor.

Deya recorded the original song Isles of the Great Goddess in total awe, in the mystical light of dawn, inside the great stone circle. Inside the ancient Earth navel that tethers the Land to the Stars. The vision she received as she sung was of a shamanic, matristic land devoted to the celebration and reverence of Creation - As she sang she felt the Women. The presence of the Divine Sacred Feminine. The Shamanin. The vocal that flows forth is filled with the sacred flame of the ancient Goddess herself. As she sings, she see's, these are the temples of the Great Goddess Tradition.

Melbourne producer Kundalini Project is joined by vocalist, Solana the Artist, flutist Amla Music and Vinod Prasanna on bansuri to create a full-power tribal techno remix of “We are a Tribe”. This powerful track brings many new elements to the remix, barely resembling the original, whilst creating a powerful version in it own right. Tribal Vocals, flutes, kalimbas, and driving beats bring this track to the peak of the remix album like only The Kundalini Project can.

This deep tribal house remix by PERE x Liquid Bloom brings in a new feel to the selection of remixes with a faster, driving dancefloor feel. Rhythmical synths and deep basslines are merged with the ethnic melodies of the original mix seamlessly creating a deep trance-like journey across the deserts of time into unknown lands and beyond.

Third up on the album brings the Australian bass music gangster Dysphemic to the stage with his dirty bass house remix of “Raqsa”. Dysphemic’s remix features the incredible Yiani Treweeke (Dysphemic’s brother) on guitar peaking at the 2nd drop. Yiani’s virtuoso licks drive the track by embellishing the main hook of the original while taking it even higher. These killer riffs soar as Dysphemic’s Moombahton style beats and dirty basslines intertwine with powerful accented turnarounds and eastern vocals.

Tribe Remixed opens with ceremonial, sacred bass duo Deya Dova and their mythic, downtempo bass remix of “Kemanja”. Deya Dova’s signature tribal chants and vocals soar in full majesty amidst masterfully re-programmed bass beats, dynamic builds, and euphoric drops. Seamlessly incorporating the original bassline, samples from track collaborator Jonny Joon, and Kamenche violins, Deya Dova delivers a deeply sensual, slow-burn sonic feast.

As I stepped onto the Earth Stage at the Texas Eclipse Festival 2024, a rush of excitement flooded through me. It was an honor beyond words to have the opportunity to share my music with the vibrant souls gathered under the canopy of Texas skies. Little did I know that the next few hours would be a journey of transcendence, as the energy of the crowd surged and swirled around us.

The crowd began as a humble gathering, but as the beats echoed through the air, it seemed to grow exponentially, swelling to a couple of thousand souls united by their love for music and the promise of connection. It was as if the very essence of the festival came alive in that moment, pulsating with anticipation and possibility.

As I delved into my set, the energy of the crowd became palpable, a tangible force that seemed to weave its way through the air, connecting each person in a shared experience of euphoria. The music served as our conduit, guiding us on a journey of exploration and self-discovery.

With each beat, each melody, the energy began to coalesce into a tribal frenzy, a rhythmic dance of heaving souls seeking enlightenment through the transformative power of sound. It was a beautiful chaos, a symphony of movement and emotion that transcended language and culture.

As the night unfolded, I found myself lost in the moment, swept up in the collective energy of the crowd. Together, we danced beneath the stars, our spirits soaring as we surrendered ourselves to the music, to each other, and to the magic of the festival.

The next day, in those fleeting hours, time seemed to stand still as we basked in the glow of the Texas Eclipse, our hearts and minds open to the infinite possibilities that lay before us.  I knew that I had experienced something truly special—a moment of pure connection and communion that would stay with me long after the festival had ended.

Performing at the Texas Eclipse Festival 2024 was more than just a gig; it was a privilege, a gift, a chance to be a part of something greater than myself. And as I stepped off the stage, heart full and soul alight, I knew that I would carry the memory of that night with me forever, a reminder of the power of music to unite, to inspire, and to transform.

At Unison Festival, deep in the late hours of the Saturday night, dear friend Sarah Conner and I, set up for magical sonic ride through the landscape of frequencies. What occurred was nothing short of a portal being opened to the divine. As people rested after a big day of dancing, they cuddled together as friends to travel into them selves searching for a greater sense of self. May this journey facilitate just that for you.

Murray Kyle is honestly one my favourite acoustic musicians on the planet. I am super exited to have created his first ever remix. I love as a producer to build bridges between the acoustic and electronic worlds to unite cultures through music. 

The original version of this track is from Murray's latest release entitled TALISMAN, and for this remix we teamed up with our good friend DJ LO QI to bring this one through.
lyrics
Here in the now I am hearing the now, as I listen, and I listen. 
To the sound that grows on up from the ground, can you hear now in the here and now. 
Can you hear that the song of the Earth, she be singing in a cycle, in a circle. 
In a circle round with a sound that carries the ancient memory, constantly, gracefully. 
Calling us to heal now stewards are we, from the inner world to the world we see. 
Raising up our voice for unity.

Murray Kyle - Here In The Now (Temple Step & DJ LoQi Remix)

We Are All Related. A universal message of connection. 

When I heard this song I instantly knew I wanted to remix it. I saw that the music of the medicine was growing to be received more and more by the mainstream. This attracted me because I feel that this music has such a healing and uplifting intention that the mainstream can receive and become whole through.

"Ven Gran Espiritu, abre el camino..." Come, Great Spirit, open the way. 
A journey of invocation, welcoming the Divine and acknowledging our divine nature, grounding and anchoring us in joyful Presence.

I was deeply honoured to be asked to remix this track by Raio. His chants are deep prayers and deserve a full cup of tribalism to propel them into the future...

Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino... 
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro...

Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino 
A la tierra de milagros 
Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino 
A la casa del sol 
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro 
Abriendo corazones 
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro 
Ong namo guru dev namo

Seeing through the eyes of the Most High...

OUT NOW: https://snd.click/Tribe

A collaboration with dear friend and Qawwali vocalist, Tahir Qawwal @tahir-qawwal
Based on a traditional Drupad piece named Jhini Chadariya
Written by the 15th century Mystic Indian saint Kabir Das.

Lyrics:
The Lord Supreme (Lord Rama) has woven a fine tapestry, delicate and free of impurities of any kind. What refined and subtle yarn, what complex interlacing he has use to weave it. The body is like a finely woven cloth, permeated by breath. The 8 petaled lotus was used as a spinning wheel, and the 5 elements as yarn (a lunar cycle) when the cloth/chadar is completed it is sent to the deyer (spiritual teacher) to colour it. The dyer colours it in red (colour of self realisation). Do we let this cloth be soiled? Or can we keep it clean, with awareness? Can we understand that the chader/body is temporary. Kabir to wear this chedar given to him originally by his guru.

With over 2 years in the making and 9 musicians and producer collaborators, this is Temple Step’s biggest release to date. Featuring 11 tracks, this diverse album ranges from global bass to ethnic house, tribal downtempo and world cinematic. An album with a track for everyone filled with passion and heart.

Drawing energy from the shifting sands of global music, sonic alchemist Temple Step beckons listeners on a sensory journey through movement, ritual, and binaural sound in his 2020 album, ‘Tribe.’ A fusion of influences bygone and new, this visionary offering invokes the spirit of ceremonial sound as it beams through the lens of tribal electronica and conscious dance culture, incorporating elements of global bass, organic house, emotive downtempo, and shamanic music into a dazzling tale of styles traversing the shapeshifting landscapes of time. Sewn with old-world instrumental work, mesmerising vocals, and surges of deep, undulating bass, Temple Step’s dynamic compositions balance force and elegance with a storyteller’s precision to unearth the magical, healing essence of world music as it bends to humankind’s unshakeable desire to move, meditate, and create across times luminous and dark.

A special thanks to Pete Robinson for his work with me to complete this album with mix reviews, mastering, emotional support and pure brotherhood. Thanks buddy I could have done it without you.

And last but not least a special thanks to my beloved Madhu Honey for all your support from behind the scenes and keeping me so real. I love you.
