Stacks.2022 was magical. This is what I do this for, for these moments of shared joy with people who love this as much I do. It has been a journey DJing this summer, having to confront PTSD on stage at Future Forest, navigating new genres, but it all came together at Stacks. I've never had so much fun and sharing this with my people, on my fave sound (all hail 40hz sound)... this is what dreams are made of. This is a journey of where I've come from and where I'm going, I hope you enjoy. <**<3**>

Poly-Esther @ STACKS 2022

Burning Man was nothing like I wanted it to be. All facts pointing it wasn’t my time to be there. No luck with tickets, close friends who would usually push me giving up, expensive and long flights.. etc. 
Facts aside, came to me an inner-voice so powerful I couldn’t help but to listen to it, and by August I finally started to plan. Less than a month to go, no tickets, no camp or tent or RV.. By that time it was also way too late to join most of the line-ups. I started to act as everything was set and done anyways: got my flights, spread the word, and slowly the stars started to align.

When at the “Burning Man that I wanted”, I didn’t see the friends I planned to see, I didn’t play the places I thought I could, I didn’t catch most of the events I wanted to. I just had the Burning Man that I needed, and it was a wild and freaking dusty one!!! Played only a few and special sets, had more time to explore amazing art, meet new beings, tighten up old friendships or get lost in the dust!

We were all there for a reason. In the immediate sense to see the “burning of the man”: a symbol of structure and government and judgment. And when the fire show started, all I could hear was exclamations of anger and pure wonder. In a grander sense, however, we were all there to expand our views, bodies, minds, and spirits, exploding like the flames in front of us into a rebirth!

What I gained from this experience was a greater understanding of the power of the collective, and that things happen exactly how they are supposed to. To trust the process and work together. Everyone in that desert did their part to build the city, to provide an experience for each soul that passed by. In this moment of fire and destruction, we used our power as one to build an energy field filled with creativity, love, and compassion.

If you ever look for endless inspiration, go to Burning Man ❤️

Bodywaltz' Millennial Styles (Live at Hybrid Club)

i used to be in a band with two of my best friends. thus, this work is not entirely mine. joe zapp on the drums, steph kuj on roland keysynth and vox, me playing my korg synth. i've never felt so natural playing with anyone, but we were broken up after a couple years and a couple shows by the call of higher education.
