🕉️Dance is active meditation. When we dance, we go beyond thought, beyond mind and beyond our individuality to become one in the divine ecstasy of the union with the cosmic spirit🕉️

Soundation Podcast is shining a spotlight on underground artists and producers in the New Zealand Techno scene. A first round of Full production sets and live analog sets
  
 Originally from Spain, Sandrita is the mind behind the Soundation brand. She's all about expanding her fave music genres and linking artists through the "House and Techno scene of the South Island" page. She is been organising "TechMeOvers" that take you on a full Techno spectrum journey from 125 to 145bpm, and "Suave" events that showcase the more organic, down-tempo, and live analog jamming side. Soundation hosts indoor and outdoor Techno Carnivals (Technivals) well known for its dope decorations and playful vibes, always with the main goal of making sure everyone's get a safe space to express themselves and spread the message of consent, respect, and sharing to ensure the best quality dancefloors.

Eve Sweetman known as ICU from Auckland, New Zealand representing NZ Psytribe - Lost in Paradise Festival. She has the exciting journey being apart of the Reversible Records family and where she has released her latest VA "All Seeing Eye". She has been previously signed with New Skulls Records Mexico, where she released her first VA Album “ Lunacy “.

Deja Vu is the other DJ alias of Eve, first starting out as a Full On Psychedelic Trance DJ and being heavily involved in the scene for 7 years, she wanted to dive deeper and try the other side of music that she has enjoyed all through-out her life, Techno & Psy-Tech. Deja Vu is representing Mindscape Records & NZ Psytribe - Lost in Paradise festival.

For Eve the perfect sound is the beautiful fusion between light and dark. She's all about bringing foot-stomping, electronic melodies to contrast with deep, dark and fast basslines. Her personal conviction and constant challenge is to bring you a journey for your high-flying pleasure.

The genre defying rule breaker from way back ...
DEEP! up the Wairoa Gorge(nelson) ... 19 years of age ..
A young Sam Claasen found himself @  Alien Nation outdoor music festival... 
3days & 3nights later.. this eye opening & Soul defining experience would change Sam's life forever. Immersion very quickly went deeper into this world 🌍 and it was not long before he found his place was intended for the other side of the decks 
and thus began.....  Doc. 
Doc.'s first electronic endeavours were made through early prehistoric forms of midi controllers & first generation CDJz ....
Tasman Bush Tech.
Doc. first started forming his foundation of Sound from his loves for the Proggy chunk and underground Psytrance  and of course the tasty Bush Tech tunes too.
Big Kiwi influences early on were - Grouch, Cosm, Flaxnation, Dawnbeaver.
some say around 2011 Doc. vanished..
Others say he just went off the Radar..
the real story .... 
Doc... was tricked into becoming an Adult..
And for a period of Time Doc. disappeared...

This time Doc. returns for good.
With his Unique Batch Blended Bass Benders of Deep Minimal Tasman Bush Tech... 
 Feeding the Fiesty Souls of the Fine & Feral Festival Fashionistas of beautiful Aotearoa.   

☯️🔥☯️
Doc. Is a unique experience.
An evolving audible adventure of
Recycling, Reshaping and Reforming Sound.
