DRAGONFLY - TUMBLEWEED HOUSE & PRAIRIE BLUES

An incredible festival, an incredible dance: In the late night steamy heat of the Costa Rican rainforest we Invoked the sacred through sonic alchemy and surrendered to the divine.  This set was the culmination of everything I strive for on the ecstatic dance floor - in the amorphously porous container of a festival a multi genre, tempo-twisted offering of deep groove and penetrating cadence elastically stretched the potential for expression over 108 minutes of unpredictable storytelling as each dancer exploded into the hyper-nowness of being.

DRAGONFLY - SPIRIT CATCHER @ ENVISION FESTIVAL ECSTATIC JUNGLE DANCE 2023

(L)et's

(D)ancing: 
I got on my bike today and made a spontaneous mix honoring of Albert Hofmann's  magnificent moment in history, 80 years ago.
This global psychedelicatessen of elevating, knotty, percolating, pulsing and squidgy bassliness is woven with a smorgasbord of flavor. Low-end basscapades, traditional horn lines and global soundplay all meet up with  the skank and stutter of dub reggae vibes for a mesmerizing entanglement with psychedelic sound design.

ALBERT HOFMANN'S BIG DAY OUT - A PSYCHEDELIC GLOBAL DUB RIDE: AN 80TH ANNIVERSARY  MIX!

On Nov 6th, 2013 the world music community lost a prolific contributor and friend, Cheb i Sabbah. I had the pleasure of knowing him through DJing with him, as well as hiring him for several festivals...and of course listening and dancing to him for 20 years. This morning I spontaneously put this little mix together that includes many of the artists he worked with...thank you to my dear friend Gaudi ( https://soundcloud.com/gaudi) and his brief interview with Cheb I which became the intro to this mix.

May the music serve as the flame at his altar...

R.I.P. Cheb I Sabbah, Jai Ho!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheb_i_Sabbah
(massive thanks to my friends Gaudi, Masaladosa, Zeb, Desert Dwellers, Jef Stott, Alum Khan, David Starfire, Sol Rising, Drum Spyder, Dum Dum Project for the tunes on this...)

DRAGONFLY - CHEB I MEMORIAL  MIX (R.I.P.)

The first Moontribe Full Moon Gathering of 2024 was a night and day filled with beautiful people and magical delights! Thank you everyone who came out to dance and stir up dust under the eclipse and among the spring desert blooms -- and the pelicans! What a wonderful blessing it was to dance with them during their morning migration!
For your aural pleasure, here's three hours of psychedelic heart warming, booty shaking grooves played for the windy mid-day dancefloor booty shakers. It's always such an honor and pleasure to play music with our beloved desert family -- I am infinitely grateful for the experience each and every time. Thanks for listening, dancing and always bringing the best of vibes!

❤️ Live In Love ❤️

Some morning psy grooves with a twist, recorded live at Moontribe's 31 Year Anniversary Full Moon Gathering. 31 years of moon magic! This one was the 25th Anniversary of my first one. Endless thanks and gratitude to the Moontribe community for a quarter of a century of smiles that has had such a significant impact on my life and who I am today. 

I hope you enjoy the music. This was an especially fun set to play..

Please share, comment, like, repost for your friends and for the almighty algorithm. Thank you!

We may be psy, we may be techno, we may be breakbeats.. it doesn't make a difference in our house.. Rest in bliss, Chuck Roberts aka "Jack" aka "The Creator".

Chadwick Moontribe FMG 31 Ear Anniversary

* Lúnasa Closing 2024 *

As the Lúnasa Gathering came to an end on Sunday evening, the spirit of the festival and the music remained. Nugi and Karliito (aka T.A.N.Z.) came together for an improvise back-to-back DJ set that captured the essence of the day, where the energy softly shifted from the high of the day to the deep, introspective rhythms of the night.

This downtempo set became the perfect soundtrack for the afterglow of this conscious festival, held in the breathtaking Mühlviertel region of Upper Austria. Just as the Celtic tradition of Lúnasa honors the first harvest, this set harvested the lingering vibes of the weekend—a blend of connection, celebration, and introspection.

Embedded in nature, while the sounds of the festival still resonate, this mix is ​​a reflection of the deep sense of community. Expect a journey through hypnotic beats, soothing melodies and a peaceful yet soulful energy that resonated with everyone who stayed to witness the day's gentle conclusion.


Whether you were there or discovering this moment for the first time, this set will transport you back to the magic of that night, where every sound was a reminder of the beauty of life and the power of coming together.

Listen, feel, and enjoy the afterglow.

The following fiction is true: Cowboy Noir, Spaghetti Westerns, Smokey Vocals, Country Blues, Lizard Kings, Storm Riders, Deep House and all...:

So "as the story goes":

"It was sometime back in 1962, when I found myself piloting a wheezing old Ford station wagon, feeling not just disoriented but positively misplaced on the dusty byways to Joshua Tree. The washboard roads shook my bones and rattled my teeth, so the accidental discovery of the sole watering hole in that barren wasteland was like stumbling upon an oasis. Despite its forlornly desiccated and saturnine exterior, the lonely backroads bar was an outpost that promised the desperate kind of salvation only dire needs can summon: Ritual libations. A stiff drink, and a moment's respite.

As I pushed through the nameless saloon’s swinging double doors, they creaked open to reveal an astonishing sight: Johnny Cash, Jim Morrison, Ennio Morricone, and Hope Sandoval, all seated together at the bar, deep in their cups. Behind the counter stood Barnett, the bartender, a sly vision of dry humor and endless spirits. They spotted my lonely silhouette and, with drunken enthusiasm, beckoned me to join their spirited symposium.
What followed was a cacophonous marathon of intemperance and debate, as we discoursed basslines and bourbon, whisky and women, UFOs and poetry, guitars and remixes, and…deep house.

The outcome of that wild and chewy night? This mix—a tribute to your culturally errant wanderings, a testament to “stepping into yes”, the uncharted paths we stumble upon…and the unexpected that ensues".

DRAGONFLY - TUMBLEWEED SOUL - THE GOOD THE BAD & THE DUSTY

Just polished off and upload for you is my set from the Lapa Stage at Envision 2024.
Easing into the dancefloor a super vibey neo Cumbia Terror/Cactus & Cuervo Cuervo collab opens the set. Following is a deep organic house set of uniquely Afro/Latin rhythms threaded with the ecstatic timbre of village voices, seductive brass, percolating percussion and heartfelt melodies. The tempo cascades and falls throughout the mix...and ends with a parking spot in your melodic heart.  

I was thrilled to share billing with some of my fav house music artists,  Birds of Mind, Chaim, Henry Pope, Maz, Okuma, Rayon, Rey&Kjavik, Paralelle, Sadhu Sensi, Lorie…and many more EnJoy!!

DRAGONFLY - LAPA STAGE - ENVISION FESTIVAL 2024

On a superb stretch of sand, just south of Todos Santos ( Baja, Mexico) I had the pleasure of celebrating with some 150 remarkable people. A private, week-long engagement was the occasion where this mix underscored the magnificent rural setting, epic sunsets, and the magic of friendship. Deep, Dub-influenced cumbia, with hints of various other Latin rhythms are represented by a new crop of breakaway producers hailing from the U.S. to Brazil. I hope you make this your favorite beach or poolside soundtrack to an endless summer...

DRAGONFLY - HOTEL DUBCUMBIA

Live mix  recorded during my set performing alongside Desert Dwellers and Kalya Scintilla (the final stop of the Earth Heart Tour). With the dancefloor dripping with freaks, this was the sonic salvo for their bodyprayer. Trap, Bass and glitch attitudes meet the sounds of India, the Middle East and beyond....

Today I crafted this pretty 'n gritty downtempo journey of blues and bass meets Folktronic Americana: Music meandering like the Mississippi and swampy like the bayou,  this grimy grip of downtempo speaks from a snatch of six-string, a chatter of banjos, lonesome  voices and pondering bass lines...

Mad props to all friends/artists on this mix. Please find them, listen to them, support them.

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.
