LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE - FESTIVAL-STYLE ECSTATIC DANCE SET
Unlike most ecstatic dances this set reflects the open dancefloor and permeable container that comes with 20k beautiful and crazy people attending Lioghtning In A Bottle. As such, I adhered to what I would call a "traditional" approach by mixing up genres, vibes and tempos in order to keep the core dancers fully activated, regardless of their place in their flow... http://lightninginabottle.org

Ecstatic Being / Facilitator / DJ

 These Live Sets are intended works of art in progress, made for dancers, vulnerably offered in recorded form for you to experience & dance to on your own terms. 
While a baby-fresh new DJ, I create these entirely improvised in the moment. I stand by this method on principle, as an ecstatic dancer,  that this is a valid and thoughtful point of view on how a journey is not one way, not linear, logarithmic, nor algorithmic. It really can’t be rehearsed; the moments of dancers energy matters and make the call through the field, a ternary code : 0 : 1 : 2, inferred and decoded as :: No : Maybe : Yes.

Attunement to this field is essential for that ecstatic union between dancers, just as The fabric stretches and tears at the edges where beauty and chaos co-mingle. Yes, dance is poetry, dance is an emotion in play, and it is our partner, the music, and our facilitator, the DJ, who skillfully and deftly handle the dialectic. 

Music moves forward, beat and undulation,  horns and strings. Music is a relentless force, and we best handle with care. 

The DJ ought be a polyglot, speaking the language of Musica, Rhythm (in its infinite patterned complexities), of Frequency & Melody & Harmony, and the ineffable stories they weave. The language of technology, of the electronic machinery that carries the Music to us. 

The DJ ought be a dancer, someone who wants to move as Wild and free as the Dancers before them. 
The DJ ought be an ecstatic soul well travelled through this life and others. 
The Dj ought be a rock and a willow reed, a flowing river and massive bonfire. They Fly with the wind, and grind deep in the magma and tectonica. 
The Dj ought be attuned, with all 9 senses activated; our work is towards grasping & implementing the 10th 11th & 12th.
The DJ ought be funny, a pranskter, a jester, a social mirror to the absurd reality of our lives as we know it. 
The DJ ought be a scientist, methodical and inquisitive, impartial to right or wrong but only to what is. Posessing the competence of a mind geared toward objective truth, and gifted with the fine-tuned instruments of introspection of psyche and able to humble themselves to the subjective.  
The Dj ought be grateful. Full stop.

This is my pledge as a DJ, as a Dancer first and foremost, and as a vessel and facilitator of Musica.🙏🏼🫀🫶🏽

Music without a map: Showcasing travelogues from the global turntable...

Taste is trust.  DJing is trust. 
wHo: Hailing from the West Coast and serving sound as one of the most sought after Freestyle selectors in the Festival, Club and Ecstatic Dance scenes. A magic carpet ride of sound transports the dancefloor when Dragonfly throws down his full-spectrum, body-mind-soul transglobal sound experience. Think cutting-edge, polyrhythmic akashic bass meets primordial sound, elastic dreamtempo, tribal mayhem, and ecstatic bliss. 

wHAt: Each mix showcased is a unique snapshot or portrait of the dancefloor. No mixes are alike, no dancefloor is alike...and no set ever preplanned, recorded or mixed. This is raw.

hOw:  As a consummate crate-digger his days are spent down the rabbit-holes of sound, constantly discovering emerging talent and the hidden gems of sonic possibility. With an ear for the exotic and a background in movement arts, his approach is through the emotive keyhole of the psyche, while unlocking the heart of the dancefloor community. As a percussionist who’s adventured extensively throughout the near and far east, his mixes span all tempos and all genres of electronic dance music. His selections are drenched in global idioms, accented with tribal motifs, and interwoven with relentlessly intoxicating rhythm and groove.
