On that misty winter morning, Hekske (the little witch) woke up when Falke (the 9 year old witch apprentice) had once again snuggled under her moss blanket to keep warm and dry.  After a relatively warm (and rainy and windy) spell during the first half of January, the weather had finally calmed down, but this also meant that temperatures had plunged to the freezing point, while the forest got engulfed in thick fog.
Later that day, after completing their daily inspection round of the cold and damp forest, the girls decided to perform a fun flight in the neighborhood of their home ‘Neigembos’ forest.  After soaring upwards, the witches quickly discovered that the layer of mist was only a few hundreds of feet thick. So it became an unexpectedly beautiful flight under a glorious sun, with only the church towers of the villages protruding above the bright white mist blanket.  The girls navigated from church to church, first passing over the villages of Denderwindeke and Zandbergen, before heading towards the church of Grimminge as their next orientation point.  At that moment, the witches heard some sad laments from below.  The girls got curious and decided to descend into the fog, where they found an old draft horse who was weeping.  The witches gave a tender hug to the distressed horse, and the ever-chatty Falke asked why he was crying.  He introduced himself as ‘Orange I’.  The witches were surprised and when Falke remarked that it sounded like the name of a king, he smiled warily and explained he was some kind of king in a distant past. For many years he was the most famous of the noble breed of Flemish draft dorses and he had won lots of first prizes in contests.  And as a pleasant side effect, he got the opportunity to father so many sons and daughters that he is now being considered as the founding father of the Flemish draft horse.  But alas, success and fame are as fleeting as a sand mandala, and now Orange I is just an old and frail animal.  One day earlier,  he had overheard his owner whisper that he would soon be brought to the slaughterhouse.  Hekske and Falke looked at the imposing horse and decided that his time hadn’t come yet.  The girls opened the gate of his meadow and – under cover of the thick fog - led Orange I to the witch’s forest.  As the horse was limping, they only made slow progress and it was already getting dark when they finally reached the forest.  The next morning, the girls led the horse to the nymph’s pond and – despite temperatures around the freezing point – waded into the water until only their heads were above the surface.   They gave an ice-cold bath to Orange I (who was in a grumpy mood and complaining about the cold continuously), after which they gently dried him with moss.  Meanwhile, Lalita The Nymph had prepared massage oil according to a South-East Asian recipe, after which the 3 women gave an extensive soft massage to Orange I.  This special treatment had a magical effect on the old horse and the next day his limp was completely gone.  Even more amazingly, he was trotting around the central meadow with a gracious gait, completely rejuvenated.  His grumpy mood had disappeared and he even invited Falke to mount on him and he took her for a ride around the meadow.  After that, Hekske and Lalita followed her example and the 3 girls took turns riding on this majestic horse … filling the forest with yells and laughter for many hours.
And from that day onwards, Orange I became very popular among the forest animals, telling them many stories of his trips around Belgium and neighboring countries.  And in the end, despite all the fame and glory of his younger days, his anonymous years as old and wise horse in the witch’s forest would by far be the happiest time of his life…

The rāga saga is a series that acts as a cultural collectiva of our favourite artists from all over, Each raga is an array of melodic structures with musical motifs, considered in the Indian tradition to have the ability to "colour the mind" and affect the emotions of the audience and this journey (raga) comes from this being of pure love @eve1-lyn

“Talking to trees, this Mix which I recorded for Kosa in India means a lot to me. As a forest yoga instructor I often talk to trees and they always respond. With this Set, that takes you trough forests, you may feel your inner connection, which empowers you to go or fly beyond ❤️🤍🎶🕊❤️🤍🎶🕊

I love capturing moods from nature and the audience and turning them into dance music.
My down- to midtempo style is shaped by sounds and melodies by landscapes, rhythms and voices of all kinds of countries around the world. It is important to me that the heart opens through music and that one can dance in perfect harmony without paying attention to it. - Lose yourself to dance -

For me and my sound the perfect time for a set is the morning - the first ray of light. I love this golden atmosphere with all the blue shadows."

In love
Eve Lyn

Into The Black Forest.

In Gedanken. Bei immergrünen Wäldern und klaren Wassern. 
Gemeinschaft in märchenhaften Hainen.
Zu Zeiten des Vollmond. 

Wir finden Heilung, Erdung, Basis, Fundamente.

Angst und Zweifel überwinden.
Zur Hilfe im Austausch. Verbindung durch Musik.

Schritte nach vorne, Schritte zurück. Die Vision vor Augen.
Klare Wasser. Klare Gedanken. 
Immergrüne Wälder. Immergrüne Hoffnung.

It is with great happiness that we welcome back our beloved friend Gabai, Octo's manager and resident DJ, and one of the most magnificent souls we came across on this epic journey! 
Audiophile by nature, world class storyteller, collector of music beyond whats believable, this is an artist that touches perfection on every tale he creates. 
For this chapter Gabai surprised us with an amazing and unique selection, made with special sauce for the dance-floor where he's been making sensation lately, both playing home as co-founder of Kuib Kulture in Romania, and aboard, like his superb performance in Chateau Perché Festival this Summer. 
Gabai is one of the most eclectic talents we have met and are lucky enough to have as our brother. 
Thank you for these years of Love and inspiration Gabai, you are a most precious part of this epic adventure... And it's just getting started! :) 


Thank you all for the support dear Friends!

Γιάννης Ρίτσος, Αναγέννηση

Κανείς δε νοιάστηκε τον κήπο, χρόνια τώρα. Ωστόσο
εφέτος-Μάης, Ιούνης-άνθισε από μόνος του και
πάλι,
λαμπάδιασε όλος ως τα κάγκελα, -χίλια τριαντάφυλλα,
χίλια γαρύφαλλα, χίλια γεράνια, χίλια μοσχομπίζελα-
μενεξελί, πορτοκαλί, πράσινο, κόκκινο και κίτρινο,
χρώματα-χρώματα-φτερά˙-τόσο που πρόβαλε ξανά
η γυναίκα
με το παλιό της ποτιστήρι να ποτίσει-ωραία και πάλι,
γαλήνια, με μια αόριστη καλή πεποίθηση. Κι ο κήπος
την έκρυψε ως τους ώμους, την αγκάλιασε, την κέρδισε
όλη˙
τη σήκωσε στα χέρια του. Κι είδαμε τότε, μέρα μεσημέρι,
που ο κήπος κι η γυναίκα με το ποτιστήρι αναληφθήκαν-
κι όπως κοιτούσαμε ψηλά, κάτι σταγόνες απ' αυτό το πο-
τιστήρι
έπεσαν ήσυχα στα μάγουλά μας, στο πιγούνι μας, στα
χείλη.

About this journey:
This one-hour mixtape is a mesmerizing journey that takes the listener from the lush soundscapes of downtempo to the hypnotic beats of slow-techno. It starts with Bucra, a collaboration between Catatonique and Alacran del Amor, at a relaxed 94 beats per minute. The track sets the tone for the mixtape, inviting the listener to sink into a world of ambient textures and multicultural sounds.

As the mix progresses, the tempo slowly picks up, gradually transforming into the pulsating rhythms of slow-techno. This emerging genre has been making waves in the underground electronic music scene of Mexico City, and this mixtape showcases some of its most captivating sounds.

The mixtape features a diverse range of artists and tracks, each bringing their own unique take on the downtempo, slow-techno sound. From moody and introspective tracks to more upbeat and energetic rhythms, the mixtape offers a multifaceted exploration of this exciting genre.

"In ecstatic dance gatherings and conscious rituals, even though I may not know the people that surround me, I feel deeply connected with them. There’s a felt experience of unity, of universal love. We are there as a tribe, co-creating the new era of humanity. When we interact during the dance, roles become clear as our inner spaces are invited to come out, we all feel cradled by the group to offer our authenticity and when we take away the words we are free to speak in a whole language where it’s impossible to tell a lie."

Recorded live in the heart of Sintra Natural Park, a place known for being the mystical center of Portugal, on a night of sensorial exploration through music, art, food, movement and healing practices to share ecstatic experiences together in community.

Witches are the guardians of the forests.  We're not evil or dark, just a bit shy.  And even surprisingly sweet and kind... as long as you respect the forest.

Art project of Hekske ('Little Witch' in my native Flemish language).
