For me this one is like a mystical joyride through a cotton candy synthscape. Hope you enjoy.

Challenge

For me Courage (Meet the Kāro) is a celebration song, I made it during a dark period and find it lifts me up and gets me smiling and moving. I hope it has the same effect on you.

Improvised Live Ecstatic Dance Experience at Construct in Nashville Jan 8 2023 - Full Show

I wrote this song together with Rose Gold Rae.  This organic-house track is all about the power of love and connection. From the pulsing beats to the soaring melodies, every aspect of this song is designed to evoke those feelings of intimacy and passion.

Feel Me

Ritual rising is organic, tribal house track that takes you on a journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening.

Ritual Rising

My first reggae release. Can't wait to play this one live.

Different Dreams

Excited to announce my first official label release today with High Vibe Records! Beacon is a 3 track collab with @Bloomurian (Robin Liepman) and @Nyrus (Colin Kingfisher).

Huge bass, tasty drop, seductive flute

This started last summer when Robin sent me a work in progress and I loved it and offered to remix it. Colin did an incredible version too. We decided to make it into a little collab project and connected with the folks at High Vibe here she is: the Beacon EP.

Beacon of Light

Dalmatia is a bouncy phat romper that I wrote in Dalmatia, Croatia while I was quarantined with Covid in a flat overlooking the Adriatic. I remember dancing on my balcony to early versions between fever dreams as the sun set. 

I only had my AKAI MPK MINI keyboard and the constrains of being away from my studio resulted in some amazing creativity in sound design and transitions.

Dalmatia

Spawned from a bassline played in a jam session, The Big Dream is a meditative exploration of eastern and western worlds. The shakuhatchi Japanese flute carries the ephemeral melody over funky bass and drums. The interlude in the middle of the track includes a drastic change in tempo that is rare in electronic music and super fun to play live. This track would be a great fit for funky jams or chill electronic playlists.

The Big Dream

I created 'Sunkiss' at Pachamama in Costa Rica, surrounded by the jungle while monkeys played in the palm trees outside my windows last year. My mentor suggested that I create a closing track for my album, and I decided to make 'Sunkiss'. It serves as both a closing track and a mix, seamlessly stitching together all the previously released tracks from my 'Sacred Dimension' album.

Sunkiss

I got the opportunity last month to play the beautiful ecstatic dance in Taos NM at Taosatva. Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible. Taos knows how to throw down.

Live @ Taos Ecstatic Dance // 9.27.2023
