After a winter of hibernating and incubating I'm starting to look outwards and figured it was a good time to share some of the tunes I've been enjoying over the last lil bit. These are the ones that got me and my baby boppin' .. I hope you feel them too ♡

♡ Oh Hey Baby ♡

Words can not begin to describe all the feelings that the Crop Psycles Collective stir up within me, even as I type an uncontrollable smile has erupted on my face! Each and every member shines in their own special way as they share their knowledge, skills, humour, playful vibes and unconditional kindness with each other and the wider community.

I am beyond thankful for the time and energy invested by all of the crew over the years to continually create cosy welcoming spaces for all to enjoy...Always inspired by the creativity, in awe of the presision tarping - truly a sight to behold! And now humbled by their hospitalitea this particular weekend as I accepted an invite to play music as well as many many games!(The mini golf tale of kismet is one for the books!)

There is no denying the ripple effect from the epicentre of this crop cluster and the good they are doing with their precious time on Earth is just so damn impressive it makes me feel like one lucky gal to be in their orbit!

Love Stories is a slow tempo, bass heavy series for your horizontally inspired listening pleasure....
Dedicated to my beautiful husband Jon....

Love Stories Vol-1

Never Stop Dancing is a mix series focused on amplifying house, disco, and techno. Through the mix series I aim to highlight the creative  expressions of the talented up and coming as well as established DJs and producers in the Kootenays and the surrounding areas of BC. The mix series is dedicated to the four to the floor lovers who may often find themselves the first or last two-steppin' on the dance floor. To those who find that movement is an essential expression of life, love, and joy. To those who find that connecting with others through movement is a process of liberation and a building block of our community. To those who get moved by the music, a language that we speak that emanates from the depths in our hearts and souls. Thank you, beautiful dancers, for your love of the groove, authentic self-expression, and freedom of mind and body. Never Stop Dancing 4 features @sunnacres.

Sunny Acres is musician, producer and Dj, Chris Francis. From an eclectic mix of wonderfully crafted original rhythms, basslines and melodies to great tracks from around the world, Sunny Acres weaves a sonic fabric of acoustic and electronic music. He is a local Kootenay producer and DJ, all-around stand-up guy, most humble DJ, and my brother from another mother. I don't remember when I first met Chris, but I know his distinctive style of deep and chugging house is what drew me to him. Since knowing him, I've had the pleasure of having him play at my events and we've danced many nights away. Keep your eyes on his Soundcloud as he'll be releasing his first LP this spring. You can find his first two tracks on his soundcloud. Stay tuned on his FB page @ https://www.facebook.com/sunnyacresmusic

This mix is a colourful tapestry of tasteful selections thoughtfully weaved together. I appreciate the deep basslines and heartfelt vocals that pull me into the story he tells. I love his mixing style that blends layers of each song so seamlessly that one cannot tell where one begins and where the next one starts. I hope you enjoy this mix and it gets you swaying, tapping your toes, 2-stepping, bopping, bouncing, and feeling all the feels.

Never Stop Dancing // 4 // Sunny Acres

Saboroso suave.  One of the tasty flavors to emanate from the Bushman to satiate a quenching palate

I'm down......tempo

Burning man was hard this year.
The heat was relentless. 
The "tree" was a safe shady refuge for many this year.  This organic oasis was a place to feel grounded in an extremely beautiful and harsh environment.
Many thanks to the crew who provided this space.
This morning set was performed on the axolotl art car with the support of the surly bird art car.
Join me for a selection of popular jingles and medium grade train wrecks.
Crossing generes, tempos and keys.  Selection was the goal not so much mixing perfection.  After all it was Sunday. 
Special thanks to all that stuck around as we danced through stubborn hour.  
It might have been longer than an hour.
enjoy.
