This track has been created during a creative retreat at an intentional community in Uvita, Costa Rica which is very dear to my heart. It's called "Awake" - hence the track is named after this beautiful sanctuary and it's infused with the magical energies of the land.

Steffen Ki - Awake

Ecstatic Dance set played at Ecstatic Dance Melbourne, Fitzroy on 3rd Nov 2023.

In this time of global conflict, constant change, and intense social pressures, it can be easy to become overwhelmed with emotion.

When we avoid or distract, we shut ourselves down. When we let it all flow through us, the grief, the anger, the joy, we open up to more life. Rather than letting it spill out onto those around us, we move to channel these energies onto the dance floor. 

This set was created for our community to journey into the darkness, face our shadows, claim back our power, and emerge back into the world, choosing love.

It is about the full spectrum of our humanity. It is about spirituality beyond religion. It is about love, divine love, that is available to all of us, at any time.

It is also a reflection of my journey this year meeting the woman of my dreams and the wild ride we've shared pre and post marriage. 

Much gratitude to my teachers (Temple Step Project & Scott Nice) and to the musicians whose music contributed to this set:
Kumea Sound, Omid Shabani, Peace Sine, Mose, Scott Nice, DJ Taz Rashid, Banyan, Ash, Nomadic, BLOOM & ELIH, Equanimous, Evan Hatfield, David Starfire, Polynation, Marlon Penn, Rapossa, Umami & Headwaters, Porangui, Dre Guazzelli, Liquid Bloom, Bloomurian, SWAYLÓ, Savej, DISSØLV, B Complex, Rameses B, Metrik, ÆON:MODE, Flava D, GRiZ, The Cat Empire, Bird Tribe, CloZee, Mystic Diversions, Faylasuf, Leandro Da Silva, Nessi Gomes, Goldfish, Xavier Rudd, Mitch Tambo, Maisey Rika, Alexia Chellun, Piano Peace

I'm deeply honoured to have crafted an ecstatic dance set for the Energy In Motion crew as part of their Feminine Compass polarity series at the Centre of You in Prahran, Melbourne.

This set celebrates the myriad facets of feminine expression, weaving together flowing cycles, emotions, chaos, beauty, and creation. It takes you on a multi-layered journey that builds energy and delves into the beauty of the feminine.

Enjoy,

Lo.tess

Second Ecstatic Dance Set

Still buzzing after an incredibly fun Ecstatic Dance set for Energy in Motion at Centre of You, Melbourne their Heart Chakra edition 💚

This journey was all about dropping into joy, love, courage, play, and the pure fun of the heart.. letting go of the past, landing fully in presence and dancing into authenticity

I had an absolute blast mixing in fiery Latin and reggaeton flavours, alongside tracks that make you wanna jump, sweat, laugh and shake your booty! Honestly, one of my most joyful, heart-opening and playful sets yet! It was WILD! So much so everyone was screaming on the dance floor!!!

With love

Down to the Ground

Chakaruna is a DJ/producer weaving tribal bass, organic house, downtempo, cinematic soundscapes, and global influences into deep, danceable journeys. From meditative stillness to ecstatic release, his sets carry ancestral echoes and contemporary energy.

Rooted in nature and ceremony, Chakaruna (Quechua for “World Bridger”) connects ancient wisdom with modern sound — moving bodies, opening hearts, and awakening spirit.
