#15 | The Essence Of Techno w/ Gypsy live @ SPICYMUSIC Lockdown Sessions

I feel 2017 is going to be a wonderful year of creating <3 and in that I have decided to begin my own monthly podcast called The Essence Of Techno. 
Music is a huge element to who I am as a being and as a creator, and I cannot wait to share new sounds and create new experiences through this podcast on a regular basis. Nothing gives me more joy than seeing the happiness music brings others. 

This mix is a musical representation I have created to transcend the thoughts and emotion towards my most recent experience of undergoing intensive Visionary Painting & Tibetan Buddhism practices. This is my musical interpretation to the essence of the awakening mind. Letting the sound reverberate like an echo, inseparable from emptiness, and express what words can not. 

I hope you enjoy.

Hello Tribe!
For this months The Essence Of Techno I'm featuring a live recording of a set Spice & I played B2B at RBUS! This would be one of my favourite sets to date! It has a few wobbly bits & mistakes here & there, but thats the nature of mixing in a live setting & it's what keeps it real & raw! ✌️  
The vibe between us & our love of techno was unreal this night, and I feel it shows through-out this whole set. 
This month on Sunday August 20th I will be playing at the infamous SPICYMUSIC event w/ PIG&DAN!!  I'm still pinching myself about this event, it will be truly magical!

Hello Tribe!
This month I have been really excited to put this mix together for you all. It features tracks from some amazing artists including Cleric, The Reactivitz, Atroxx, Christopher Coe, Carl Cox and Reinier Zonneveld. One track in particular that I have been so pumped to share is Adam Beyer and Bart Skils new track 'Your Mind'. I first heard Bart play a tool version of the track in one of his sets several months ago, and I felt an instant connection to it, so I am very happy it has finally been released on Drumcode.
This month I also added a visual element to the Podcast, with a livestream of the whole mix. You can check it out here: https://www.facebook.com/gypsydj/videos/2121403281478049/
Thank you so much for tuning in once again.
