Kareem Raïhani - Curry Unknown

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.

Since his youth, Oleksandr has been looking for the realization of his musical talents and sensual communicative nature and currently he has found himself in the role of Ecstatic Dance Dj. It happened after asian journey and visit of many ecstatic events and meeting with different facilitators and DJ’s from the word.

In 2018 Oleksander returned to native country and continues to carry an ecstatic wave for his tribe in Kyiv and start provide Ecstatic Dance practice in Ukraine. 

His music and inner state always add some magic  atmosphere to space and takes it into the soul depths. Oleksa using his sensitive and collective energy management skills and elegantly creates musical sequences of different phases in Ecstatic Dance healthy therapy.

🇺🇦 Ще з юнацтва Олександр був у пошуках реалізації своїх музичних талантів і чуттєвої комунікабельної натури та наразі знайшов себе у ролі провідника танцювальної практики Ecstatic Dance. Це сталося після подорожі Азією та відвідування багатьох екстатичних заходів та зустрічей з різними провідниками та діджеями цього напрямку.

У 2018 році Олександр повертається на батьківщину, продовжуючи нести екстатичну хвилю для свого танцювального племені в Києві та розпочавши активно популяризувати  практики Ecstatic Dance в Україні.

Його музика та внутрішній стан завжди додають у простір якусь чарівну атмосферу, відчуття моменту єднання з душею та колективним Духом. Олександр, використовуючи свої чутливі навики управління енергією людей, елегантно створює музичні послідовності різних фаз у танцювальній терапії Ecstatic Dance.

Ecstatic Dance від Aleхtatic – це завжди фантастична подорож на хвилях яскравих, наповнених і глибоких емоцій у супроводі прекрасної життєдайної та натхненної музики, яку він передає зі свого великого серця.

Давайте святкувати життя разом у екстатичному сакральному танці в одному ритмі серцебиття нашої прекрасної планети, нашого рідного дому!
