Dj Soleia 

Nomadic artist from Bakata - Colombia, offering tribal hypnotic beats teleporting dancers  to a trance journey to connect deeper with the unconscious mind bringing into awareness  the prayer of the water.

The mission is to channel through music and movement  the ancient wisdom of the land, share the golden word of  the elder  brothers of this sacred territory have to say to us   ( the younger brothers ).

The aim of the project ´Praheya´ is to alter space with sounds in a way that it is easier for the listener to experience higher states of consciousness and union with ´All That Is´. By moving to these sounds, the dancer can also bring the human body and mind to a more natural and healthy state of being.

WHAT IS "APUKUNA"? (artist statement)

"Apukuna" is a Quechua word meaning 'mountain spirits'. Following an apprenticeship into Andean cosmology, I chose the name to honor the people, the wisdom, and to invite deeper appreciation for their sacred relationship to land, mountains and the unseen. This relationship is available to all of us who walk this earth and is where much of my musical inspiration emerges."
