Live @ Ecstatic Dance Nevada City 8.15.23

I've been dreaming of playing the 10am set at RhythmWave for YEARS. 
This year we made it happen. 

RW is has been bringing the vibration of 5Rhythms to the playa and holding the pulse of conscious dance in BRC for well over a decade. 

As a long time practitioner of 5Rhythms, stepping behind the decks on that glorious dance floor was an honor and career highlight. Flanked by long time colleagues and rhythm family, it was the first time I've ever cried during soundcheck. 

And the crowd that showed up?? Good god you were gorgeous, bursting booties thicccc with READY ~~~~ beauty contagious, pure raw yes.

Live at Ecstatic Dance Nevada City // 6.25.24

Soooo here it is, my latest offering, an audible morsel, a tasty little musical treat dug deep from my soul containing all the tunes I have been loving/playing to absolute death this past year or so. Always such a challenge to narrow it down but each of the tracks themselves tend pave the way to the next and in the end the process becomes somewhat out of my hands 🙌
.
.
.
I am thankful for all the original creators who have provided this most recent soundtrack to my life, they have joined me while travelling far and wide to Japan, Canada, the States and the UK, they have serenaded me in the garden and on crafternoons, in the kitchen and my yoga mat and on walks, hikes, rides and long drives alike always enhancing the beauty of the scenes I find myself in.
.
.
.
They have soothed me, moved me and inspired me in ways I find it hard to articulate and so in a way this here little mix is my way of both giving back and paying it forward so others might have a chance to connect with their creations. Honorable mention to Mayyadda for the opening mantra and East Forest and Duncan Trussell for the final thought provoking track So What?

Burning Man 2024 - Thurs. 2:30am @ Soundgarden
Wow - this was a really special night. So many incredible dancers beautifully and enthusiastically expressing to my set. Behold 2 hours of unplanned and spontaneously DJ'd deep melodic beauty, uplifting global vibes and transcendent joy.  

As an exploration of world music this house mix spans many continents and cultures, one whose coda ultimately concludes with two remixes that, while they were somewhat a deviation from the theme of global sounds, they perfectly summed up the collective heartspace of those deeply vibing wee hours at Burning Man. 

Massive thanks to Mark Duncan and crew at Soundgarden (2:00/Gobsmack) for creating an exemplary space for music and the movement community.

POLYGLOTTAL GLOBAL 

DRAGONFLY - BURNING MAN 2024: POLYGLOTTAL STOMP @ SOUND GARDEN

(Track List Below) This live set from Center Camp was inspired by the joy and adventure I experienced out on the playa that night. Pulling from the last 10 years of my releases I went back to my roots in that shanti world heart vibe, so much music that I never get to play at big parties and clubs. Played to a huge and empty tent it was one of the highlights of my time in the desert, just for me. Sparkled in are some favorite tracks by other producers. In the moment I felt so much gratitude for all the collaborators, singers and instrumentalists who have worked on these songs with me on this journey. Still that heartfelt thanks is just as present. May you enjoy the journey and feel the intention. Yip yip!

Kai Altair is a songwriter, producer, and DJ with a deep reverence for movement, rhythm, and spiritual exploration. Her musical project is Aazav created with her partner Haj i Ji. Drawing inspiration from mystical traditions, nature's rhythms, and cosmic energies--Kai's original music & DJ sets are a journey into realms of worldly organica, sensual bass, big boom, and astral wubs. 

Aazav emerges from Kai & Haj's shared passion for music that animates both body and soul. Drawing from ancestral vocal traditions and deep woods sensibilities, their sound is a convergence of medicine melodies and global organica—a call to the central fire of remembered futures. Their debut album, "The Looking Stone," garnered support with stellar remixes from collaborators like David Starfire, Govinda, Kaminanda, Drumspyder, and Living Light.



Currently crafting a dancefloor-focused EP with gifted collaborators, they also host SYNERGY Ecstatic Dance & SANCTUM, an intentional temple space gathering at Soft Medicine in Sebastopol, California.

Join Aazav in the communal sacrament of rhythm and the natural rite of dance.
