SPASIBA: Primal Jungle Eclipse House Party (Live 10.28.23)

As she crossed the threshold into the mystical wood, chasing a glimmer into the night, the forest began to sway and twist with the rhythm of her footsteps. A skip, a hop, a gallop... twisting, winding, the canopy swallowed her into the deep, her breath entwining with the heartbeat of the wilderness...

Recorded LIVE at Youtopia! ~ Gratitude to Centaur, Rachel and all for a beautiful evening of connection, dance and celebration.

New Moon in Cancer: Ecstatic Dance @ Whitewater Center 6/25/25

This song was gifted to me by the Kill waterfall in Kerhonksen, Lenape land, Catskills New York. 

May it be shared around campfires and with children on hikes through the wilderness, with friends on a porch or on stages…

The Earth Anthem (LIVE @ Akera)

1️⃣ How this mix came together 🎚️✨

I started with a compatibility graph where every node is a track and every edge means these two are compatible (matching key, vibe & BPM - a blend of the Camelot wheel and personal intuition).

Then I had three constraints:
• keep the whole set locked at 110 BPM
• make sure every must-play track appears in order
• allow for optional tracks that can be added in, while still respecting the compatibility graph

2️⃣ Then I wrote a python script to help with coming up with the final track list

Here is what the script does:

• Core path: For each consecutive pair of must-play tracks the script calls nx.shortest_path with weight=None, which runs bidirectional BFS to find the minimum-hop route between the pair. The routes are concatenated to form one chain that contains every core track in order and only harmonic transitions.
• Optional insertion: The script then scans that chain once from left to right. Whenever an optional track connects to both tracks bordering a gap, it inserts the optional there and labels it “optional,” using the first valid slot it finds for each optional track.

```
import networkx as nx

# 1) build the graph
graph = nx.Graph()
edges = [
    ("Ludo", "Mahoya"), ("Mahoya", "Schleudertrauma"),
    ("Schleudertrauma", "Cheetah"), ("Cheetah", "Wave"),
    ("Wave", "Tanzanite"), ("Tanzanite", "Back to My Roots"),
    ("Back to My Roots", "Back to Black"), ("Back to Black", "Black Diamond"),
    ("Black Diamond", "Shadow Is Blue"), ("Shadow Is Blue", "Hesperides"),
  # etc.
]

graph.add_edges_from(edges)

# 2) declare core and optional tracks
core = ["Ludo", "Mahoya", "Schleudertrauma", "Tanzanite",
        "Back to My Roots", "Back to Black", "Black Diamond",
        "Hesperides", "Akela", "Optimistique-moi"]

optional = ["Cheetah", "Wave", "Slow Ravers", "Things in My Head",
            "Shadow Is Blue", "Voice of Tulum"]

# 3) create the shortest list that covers every core track
path = []
cursor = core[0]
for target in core[1:]:
    path += nx.shortest_path(G, cursor, target)[1:]
    cursor = target

# 4) insert optionals if they lie on a legal edge
for node in optional:
    for i in range(len(path) - 1):
        a, b = path[i], path[i + 1]
        if G.has_edge(a, node) and G.has_edge(node, b):
            path.insert(i + 1, f"{node} (optional)")
            break

print(" → ".join(path))
```

The output gives a ready-to-play order with any optional track tagged “(optional).” Whether an optional track is played, or not, the transitions are still harmonic.

3️⃣ Played tracks

• Temple Tears – Ludo (Original Mix)
• Eternal Moment – Mahoya (Kuako Remix)
• PATH* – Schleudertrauma (Original Mix)
• Thommie G – Tanzanite (Hvitling Remix)
• Don Son – Back to My Roots (Kapoor & fernn Remix)
• Pavel Petrov, VALL – Back to Black (Original Mix)
• Demetrius – Black Diamonds (Tony Casanova Remix)
• Haris Kate – Hesperides Garden (Rabih Rizk Remix)
• Moullinex - Darkest Night (Xinobi Remix)
• Kuako – Akela (Original Mix)
• Mylène Farmer – Optimistique-moi (Zafir Remix)

All tracks pitched to 110 BPM, only harmonic mixing, and the algorithm keeps the path legal even when the optionals are ignored.

SPASIBA: Ecstatic Dance NYC - Midsummer Dream (LIVE @ Judson Church)

This place brings out a bunch of stuck talent of mine. There is something about performing here where I take some more risks and feel so at ease about them. This set has funky groovy jazzy house into a few really sultry track,  into a nostalgic celebration using rare mixes of tracks elder millenials (me) went nuts for, then moves with ease into pulsing world beats and a favorite combo of mine I haven't done since 2022. I love this one. 

LIVE at Spiegeltent 8/8/25

SPASIBA (spa-sí-ba) blessing in Belarusian: meaning “thank you”. 

SPASIBA (Katya Stepanov) is a Belarusian-Jewish-American DJ, artist and entrepreneur based in Brooklyn. 

SPASIBA spins a world of sound. Born in Minsk and raised in the concrete jungles of NYC, SPASIBA’s sound is a syncretic fusion of European melodies and Latin beats. Katya’s sets are a journey. She braids together Afro, Latin & European house, techno, D&B, jungle rhythm, disco, trance, and driving melodic EDM with a splash of mysticism and soul. 

SPASIBA got her start as a champion Latin Ballroom dancer, received her BFA at CMU’s School of Drama, and is committed to co-creating dance floors where notions of self are shed at the door and standing in place becomes physically impossible. She creates resonance through the power of breath, bass, sweat, and sonic alchemy.
