Here are some of my Ecstatic Dance sets, mainly from Ecstatic Dance Israel, but also from some other retreats and unofficial venues...

Ecstatic Dancin'

Unicorn Sets (Globaltronica)

Sexy Soundtracks

Weddings & Funerals

Festivals & Parties

A juicy, sexy set I played at a Liquid Love temple.
Came back to the constant 92BPM tempo, as I once found it very sexy for the bodies moving in front of me.
Put it in the background if an hour's all you need.

Liquid Love is Sexier at 92BPM // Sexy Downtempo Set @ The Devotion Temple, The Love Farm // 27.5.22

A heart-boggling set I played at the ISTA Temple Arts Festival 2022 held in Kfar HaNokdim.
At the beginning of it, I had roughly 800 people with their hearts all crispy and wide-open after a Heart Vibrations ceremony to which I also curated the music.
After a slow beginning, it starts to build up until it finally explodes.
Easily one of my finest sets so far, and possibly the one I enjoyed playing the most!

Dance Your Heart Off! // A Heart & Feet Moving Journey @ ISTA Festival 2022, Kfar HaNokdim // 9.6.22

After playing many sets in various unofficial variations of Ecstatic Dance events in Israel, my friend and colleague Itaytaye (DJ Spiritito) recently invited me to play a set for them in Ecstatic Dance Haifa.
At the end of this set, I was - like most of the people in the room - simply speechless.
I had such a blast, and hope to play there again really soon!

Ex-Stasis = Dancing Out Of Your Body // First Official Ecstatic Dance @ Beit Hecht, Haifa // 12.7.22

A friend of mine sent my set from ISTA Festival to his friend, and he wanted me to come to play something similar to that on his 42nd b-day. This set is somewhat similar, yet more high-energy, and longer than the ISTA one, with plenty of new material on top of the golden oldies. Enjoy!

Out with the Old, In with the Hadash // Amir's B-Day Rave @ Herev Le'et // 22.7.22

2 months later, I came back to the scene of crime, and boy - was that completely and utterly amazing!
The first 2 hours are mainly beats from all over the world, while the last hour or so is an Hors D'oeuvre for the up-and-coming long-awaited Mama Africa DJ set...
So crank up the volume and submit to Globaltronica!

Around the World in 180 Minutes #2 // Globaltronica Set @ The Unicorn, Pardes Hanna-Karkur // 8.7.21

3rd time around at the Unicorn, and this time it was... FUCKING LEGENDARY!
There were over 200 people, and for most of the time, the dancefloor was packed.
It felt like some of them grew wings, especially for the event - or perhaps, thanks to it?

Around the World in 180 Minutes #3 // Globaltronica Set @ The Unicorn, Pardes Hanna-Karkur // 3.3.22

The day after the 74th Israeli Independence Day, I gave the ol' Unicorn my taste of IndepenDANCE!
A lot of special Israeli electronic (Israelectronica?) versions in this one, woven into my regular style.

Around the World in 180 Minutes #4 // Globaltronica Set @ The Unicorn, Pardes Hanna-Karkur // 5.5.22

When I was invited to play at the Unicorn for the 5th time (Well, actually 6th, but the original show in August got canceled due to me getting Corona), I had no idea what to play.

When I arrived there, I saw that a lot of the people were 70's-born, hence I decided to use materials I searched for in the past for several specific occasions I played in - and to make a pastiche out of them all.

I really like the end result, and I think the few several hundreds of people who danced their ass off to this will kindly agree.

Famous Songs: Reimagined // Remixes Paradise @ The Unicorn, Pardes Hanna-Karkur // 20.10.22

My very first time at the Silo was a Friday morning Ecstatic set, which is a rather interesting time for a set.
But oh boy, by noon we all lost our shit and ended up sweaty, dazed, and confused.
Just How I like it!

Et Bien Sûr: La Basse! // Eclectistatic Set @ Ecstatic Dance HaSharon, Silo Culture // 2.12.22

It was a sheer pleasure to come back and supply the all-nighter soundtrack for some good friends of mine's semi-annual DarKarnaval celebration. 
Here are the last 2+ hours of the set, the juiciest part of 'em all.

Jingle Balls, Jingle Balls, 90BPM // DarKarnaval's Santa's Secret Celebration @ HaMa'ayan // 5.1.23

An exceptionally HOT ecstatic set, designed especially for lighting that inner fire within.

Drakaris, Muthafucka!!! // A Fire-Breathing Ecstatic Set @ SOMA Winter Retreat, Yavne'el // 16.2.23

Played live on Ecstatic Hof HaCarmel at HaMa'ayan (Ma'ayan Tzvi Industrial Area) on 25.2.23, this set was perhaps my most flowing and fun to play up to now in Ecstatic Dance Israel. 

About 50 beautiful souls chose to come on a sunny winter Saturday afternoon, and dance their hearts (and pelvises)out with me. 
I am so f@#^in' humbled by that.

A big shout out to Ofir (Magic Vibes) for the invitation!
I cordially invite you to brew some cocoa, crank up the speakers, put your blindfolds on, and dive into that 2-hour inner journey. ENJOY!

Sharing the Vibe 3rd Anniversery Special Ecstatic Dance Set by DJ Gal Rosenberg // 25.2.23

This Purim, I had the honor and privilege to play the opening chord of the Dance Temple's main stage - The Temple!
It started around 80BPM with no people whatsoever on the dancefloor, and ended about 2 hours later at around 120BPM with EVERYONE dancing their a$$es off, ready for the main ceremony to commence...

Spaceship #2323, We Have Lift-Off! // Dance Temple Opening Set @ Biankini Beach, Dead Sea // 2.3.23

Set in a beautiful location, just outside of Tsukim, our AraveRave took place on Purim's eve.
This is the 1st set I recorded (we played B2B for 3 hours before that), and it's the shifting point of the night.

First We Take Manhattan // Midnight Set @ AravaRave, Tsukim // 6.3.23

I had the honor to liven the party up in my friends' wedding.
It was a rather challenging set, as the bride's and groom's families didn't have the same taste, to say the least...
At a certain point in the set, both worlds collided in the most beautiful way, and it remained so for the rest of the set.
Mazel Toff, Ziv & Pliya!

A Little Bit of This, A Bisl Fun Dem // Ziv & Plia's Wedding @ Fairy Forest, Beit Oren // 23.3.23

I came to DJ at this party on a Saturday afternoon, after DJing at a  wedding of my friends on Thursday, and then a family memorial on Friday.
One might safely say I was carrying the full spectrum of life & death in me while pressing the "PLAY" button.
I believe that the outcome is a 2-hour flirt with the madness that's been going on around here in the past few weeks (months? years? lifetimes?).
Enjoy your listening!

The Best of March Madness // Wild Child Tribe @ Mey Kedem, Amikam // 25.3.23

In the midst of childhood wounds, attachment patterns, and embodiment exercises - there lies this set.
After a heart-expanding ceremony led by 2 good friends, it was time for the participants to shake all loose ends and meet life at its fullest.
It was such a privilege to be the one enabling them to do so.

Intimacy = Into Me You See! // ALMA Intimacy & Relationship Conference @ Samadhi Center // 19.5.23

I came back quite sick from supporting a heart-boggling retreat about 24 hours before this set.
Already at the soundcheck, we discovered that something was faulty with the sound, so I had to play the set w/o the monitor.
After about 25 minutes into the set, something else went wrong with the sound that came out of the speakers.
I let it all crash and burn, and tried to make the most out of the situation. Notice the sloppy mixing in some of the places, I left it as it is, I didn't try to beautify anything. 
Hey, that's life, right?

There's Some Static in that Ecstatic // Ecstatic Dance Pardes Hanna @ Tena, Ein Shemer // 5.6.23

When the future couple approached me and asked whether "Hasidic-Ethnic-Tribal-Moroccan-Psychedelic" is a possible combination, it took me less than a nano-second to reply: "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!"

A while after doing a Jewish-Orthodox meets Balkan-Electronic wedding, I've come to understand I get to create my own genres, and what a blessing that is...
Mazel Toff, Yonatan & Hagar!

When East Marries West // Yonatan & Hagar's Wedding @ Old Bat Shelomo // 8.6.23

It was pretty weird to come back and DJ in those hallucinated days we're experiencing here in Israel.
This time it was 20+ people at 10 am, all of them coming with their own excess baggage.
By the end of the 1st hour, a few of them were crying their eyeballs and yelling at the top of their lungs.
So I guess I managed to channel what was needed.
Thanks for the opportunity to do so!

Hummus > Hamas // Morning Integrative Dancing @ Ecstatic Dance Pardes Hanna // 30.10.23

A very chilled set, 90BPM all the way, played at a friends' gathering about a month into the war.

Some of it is melancholic, some amusing, some mysterious: kinda like life, no?

Talk about War-Life Balance // 90BPM Downtempo Set @ Connected, Bora Bora, Pardes Hanna // 9.11.23

My 1st time arriving at the Mecca of Ecstatic Dance Israel - Suzanne Dellal Center in Tel Aviv.
I've had a few dozens of dancers, willing to commit to my sounds, and boy - what a journey it was!
From deep sorrow to peaks of giggling, this set (almost) had it all...

It’s Time for an Out-of-Body Experience! // Ecstatic Dance TLV @ Suzanne Dellal, Tel Aviv // 10.1.24

Finally returning to Ecstatic Dance HaSharon, after I was supposed to play there 4 days after October 7th.

This was a very touching-yet-uplifting set, for an adorable community, in a space I just love to play in!

Surfin' the Waves of Ecstatica // Ecstatic Dance HaSharon @ Silo, Hod HaSharon // 30.1.24

A birthday downtempo all-nighter, where the songs communicate and interact with whatever's happening in front of my eyes.

You can guess it didn't make much sense anyway...

This Set Don't Make Any Sense // Living Skin's B-Day Downtempo All-Nighter @ Pardes Hanna // 9.2.24

1st time in the Kinneret branch of Ecstatic Dance Israel, and oh, what a great time it was!

I had the honor and privilege to take some 40+ people on a journey with me, and I think this is one of my best Ecstatic Dance sets thus far. Listen and lemme know?

Magic upon the Sea of Galilee // Ecstatic Dance Kinneret @ Selina Tiberias // 9.4.24

Finally, I returned to my home field after nearly 1 year of absence due to the war.
It's always a pleasure to play for several hundreds of people. 
But when the venue is only a 5-minute drive from home and I know half the crowd by name?
It's an even greater pleasure!

From Slavery to Freedom in 180 Minutes // Globaltronica Set @ The Unicorn, Pardes Hanna // 18.4.24

A 3-hour sunset set with one of the most diverse audiences I've had yet.
A blend of everything that Globaltronica: Afrotronica, Arabtronica, Jewtronica - and even a hint of Greektronica this time!

May the 4th Be With You! // Globaltronica Sunset Set @ Mikhmoret Beach // 4.5.24

A set I played in Haifa's Ecstatic Dance branch. Muy kef, as always!

Hom Yuli August Hazaya Kaved Meod // Ecstatic Dance Haifa @ Beit Hecht // 20.8.24

A sexy juicy playful headphone set I played at a beautiful soul's b-day.

Giving & Getting Head(phones) // May's B-Day @ Haifa // 12.9.24

A morning Ecstatic Dance set I had the pleasure of playing in a 21-Day Yoga & Meditation Retreat in Hridaya Yoga Center, Saint-Just-d'Avray, France.

Kaya Sthairyam in Perpetuum Mobile // Ecstatic Dance Hridaya @ Château Longeval, France // 13.10.24

A special Day of the Dead set I was invited to play in Rome.

Little Set of Horrors  // Day of the Dead Special @ Ecstatic Dance Roma, Italy // 1.11.24

For this wedding, the lovely couple wanted to slow dance, then quickly move to party mode, with a blend of Israeli & Russian crowd, hence the sudden shifts between the English, Hebrew & Russian.
The dancefloor was a-pumpin', and that's what counts!

To Russia with Love // Eli & Luna's Wedding @ Caesar Yam, Caesarea // 12.11.24

A set I played at a wikkid Burn-themed event in the Artists' Stable of Pardes Hanna.
The set is dedicated to Corinne Allal, may she rest in peace.

Some Deep Playa Globaltronica for Ya // Hanna's Playa @ Creation Field, Pardes Hanna // 19.12.24

A journey that was played through me, shortly after a week full of physical & emotional pain and sickness.
There are some fuck-ups and slip-ups, just like in life; I'd rather not fix them but keep the breakage, and just tape it with gold.
I humbly dedicate this set to all survivors of Dark Night of the Soul.

The King of Kintsugi // Ecstatic Dance Pardes Hanna @ Tena, Ein Shemer // 6.1.25

A 6-hour, all-nighter set I played at Creation Field, Pardes Hanna.
Starts off with a 1 hr. or so of downtempo, then some Techno/House remixes of some goldies and oldies, then at about 2:39:00 it continues to explore the harsher realms of Gqom, Afro House, Afro Techno, Acid Techno, Tech Trance, etc. - until slowly landing back into reality. 
May you enjoy the journey!

6-Hour Energy Dance // All-Nighter @ Creation Field, Pardes Hanna // 30.1.25

The 1st burn-themed set I played outside of Pardes Hanna in 4+ years.
It was a pleasure to come back to this community from which I grew about a decade ago, in preparation for the Deco event next month.
Hope I made your sunset & temple burn even more pleasurable 😇

Too Much Acid Causes Heartburn // HeArt Burn @ Artan Studio, Hod HaSharon // 15.2.25

A set I especially curated for Rona's 50th birthday party, full of crazy remixes from Israel & the world.
Mazel toff, Rona!

Golden Jubilee? Golden Hits! // Rona's 50th B-Day Party @ Be'erotayim // 21.2.25

The very night before this set, I was asked to fill in for a friend who couldn't come. And as I love his music, I had this night free anyway.
So less than 2 months after my last time there, I came back to my favorite branch of ED Israel, and played one hell of a set: wild, amusing, deep, border-examining.
Have a listen and lemme know how it was in the comments!

A Wonderful Comedy of Errors // Ecstatic Dance Pardes Hanna @ Tena, Ein Shemer // 3.3.25

One of the best Purim parties I've had the pleasure of DJ'ing in.
A beautiful location, only a few dozens of kilometers from Gaza Strip and where 7/10 happened, to which I dedicated the last track of this part.

I've had the pleasure to open the party (which is this one right here), then hand it over to Einav, then play back-2-back with her 'till dawn, and then play soft & cuddly music until the generator was picked up and we were forced to stop.

In the Forest We Shall Dance // Free Dance Purim Edition @ Haruvit Forest // 13.3.25

A spontaneous set I played at Nahal Zin's spontaneous gathering.
Back to basics, where I started my DJ'ing career back in 2003-ish...

Trance is Always Better in the Desert // Crazy Psy Trance @ Nahal Zin // 22.3.25

Ecstatic Hof HaCarmel always feels like my 3rd home.
It's a venue I've had the pleasure of playing many times, not only in Ecstatic.
And every time I come, I feel like the space becomes my own jester, causing me to go even further than I possibly planned.
This set is no different.

Stretching the Edges of Conciousness // Ecstatic Dance Hof HaCarmel @ HaMa'ayan, Ma'ayan Tzvi // 29.3.25

After over a year, I finally had the honors to come back and play at this wonderful venue.

As one Fatboy Slim once put it, "Y'all Are The Music, We're Just The DJ's":
Thanks a lot for all the artists I played, w/o them I'd be just playing silence for 111 minutes... ;-)

All Work & No Play... // Ecstatic Dance Hasharon @ Silo, Hod HaSharon // 5.5.25

An international, Israel-based DJ, playing mainly Globaltronica (Electronic Tribal World Music), Ecstatic Dance, and Templesque music.
Has been doing so for the past 20+ years in festivals, "burns", private events (such as weddings and funerals), clubs, and other venues.
On a lifelong, constant search for the primordial sound.
