Hi there folks 😉

Formerly I have been known for about two decades as DJ Shawnodese, but have recently changed my name into DJ Sonic Sculptor, which feels a lot more appropriate during my current stages in life as well as for what I try and create as a DJ.

I've been active under my alias DJ Shawnodese for most of the time, which was between 1991-2011 in the psytrance scene and after that in the conscious clubbing and Ecstatic Dance scene until 2024.

I played allover the planet and mainly did so in the psytrance scene with bookings on major psytrance and other in- & outdoor parties & festivals such as Boom Festival (Portugal), Ozora (Hungary), Earthdance (Bolivia/Holland), Antaris Project (Germany), Return to the Source (U.K./Germany), Universo Paralello (Brazil), Vuuv/Voov Experience (Germany), Alien Safari (South-Africa), Excalibur (Germany), Spacehopper (U.K.) and many more. 

Next to playing all those massive dance floors, I also played lots of downtempo and experimental sets at many chill-outs, lounges and the famous Amsterdam coffee shops. And last but not least, I've been running my own record label Mind Funk Records for about 7 years, which I did together with my buddies Valerio & Guiseppe @ Beatspace.com

Back in 2011, when I decided to stop playing as a psytrance DJ, I somehow miraculously was led upon a new and really refreshing musical trail in 2012, which was by getting in touch with Ecstatic Dance and other magic conscious events, such as The Chocolate Club in Amsterdam and which were all organized at Amsterdam's legendary Club Lite.

I have been DJ-ing on many Ecstatic Dance events over the past few years and did so in the Netherlands and Belgium and did so under my old alias DJ Shawnodese. As mentioned previously, have recently changed my name to DJ Sonic Sculptor, which unexpectedly came to me, partly through an amazing dream.

Sonic sculpting is what I do best and is my most favorite thing to do on this beautiful magic planet. Nothing gives me more joy than doing so on Ecstatic Dance events, which I intensely love for its seemingly endless possibilities to experiment with every possible kind of music that makes those delicious hips wiggle and wobble like a baboon in heat. 😜

These uniquely vibrant Ecstatic Danc events have had  a very deep and profound impact on my personal development as a human being and which have taught me so much about how I interact with myself and others. How to learn and grow through dance, movement, playing together and constantly exploring personal and collective boundaries and desires.

Ecstatic Dance events have a strong focus upon a clear consensual connection between us as human beings while dancing, moving and playing on our bare feet, being drug free and leaving all the verbal noise of the day far behind. These events allow everyone to truly drop into the body and deeply get in touch with our sacred somatic temple again.

I really look forward to seeing you all soon on some of those amazing dance floors and being able to drop some of my favorite musical masterpieces upon you all! 🥳

Most DJs play music. Kareem Raïhani creates experiences—deep, powerful and ecstatic, each one profound, electrifying, and never quite the same. No matter how many times you’ve danced to his sound, he’ll always take you somewhere new.
Often hailed as the "Shaman of Dance”, he is one of- if not, the most influential Ecstatic Dance Pioneer, he wasn’t just part of the birth of the Ecstatic Dance movement; he helped shape it. Bringing Ecstatic Dance to countless countries, he has been a key role in spreading this freeform dance experience across the globe. Kareem is widely considered as the founder of the European Ecstatic Dance sound, a signature fusion that has influenced not only Europe but ecstatic dance communities worldwide.
Born with Dutch/Moroccan roots and trained as a professional contemporary dancer in Amsterdam, Kareem first spoke through movement. But when he shifted from being on stage in theatres to leading the dance floor through sound, he found his true calling. For over two decades, Kareem has traveled the world, spreading the essence of Ecstatic Dance, being a driving force in the global conscious dance scene and setting dance floors ablaze with music that is unmistakably his. Many of his remixes have become essential Ecstatic Dance anthems, played by nearly every Ecstatic Dance DJ on the planet. Many dj’s have been inspired and influenced by his groundbreaking way of mixing diverse genres into one seamless, hypnotic flow. With his exceptional talent for mixing sounds, rhythms, and moods, Kareem has established himself as a true master of Ecstatic Dance embodying the movement in every cell.
And if you ask anyone who has danced for the first time to his sets, they’ll tell you most of the time the same thing: “We’ve done many Ecstatic Dances, but this... this was something else... beyond anything we’ve ever experienced.” His music isn’t just played—it’s felt. It’s a full-body, heart- opening, soul-shaking journey where deep tribal beats, futuristic rhythms, electrifying grooves and hypnotic melodies that feel like they were made just for you, merge into something truly authentic and often mentioned as transformational.
Kareem continues his mission: to dissolve boundaries, ignite transformation, and guide music and dance lovers to that sacred place where music, movement, and spirit become one. Always reaching for the moment the trance kicks in and the dancer becomes the dance. So if you ever find yourself dancing like never before, dissolving in the music yet more present than ever, you just might have been locked into the magic of Kareem Raïhani.

Rumzar. Me. But not me. Mirror me. 
Something else. 

Awakening awareness. 
Surrendered in the current.
Riding the tide. 
Becoming the ocean.
