A quick thank you to The Burn, to Carmel,  Franki, Gabi, as well as to Maestro Krizzology, Mo and Dan (for the DJ inspiration and guidance) and to Paul, Tommy and the Loki Crew for your support.

The Brief Back Story:

The idea of a musically curated burn was seeded by the cacophony of inane sound that historically accompanied most burns. I have always felt that the spectacle and meaning of a burn can be radically enhanced with artwork appropriate music...

Gaia's Song was all about sound. About employing music as a reciprocal and an unequivocal voice between humans and all that is Mother Earth. 

Historically, the Temple has always represented reflections of melancholy (and its commensurate release by fire), as well as positive manifestations. 

Personally, Franki and I got married at Verity's Metamorphosis Temple in a ceremony that I still cannot quite put in words. In the same breath, the profound nature of the human spirit also tears me up from moment I read the first message to the last one every year.

So, it follows that I wanted to honour musically, the silent introspection of some and the voiced joy of others. My original vision included an ambient lead down into a period of silence before the lighting of the first flames. I had the piano strains of Samuel Yirga and the melancholic voice of Hope Sandoval in mind to lead us into silent reverie about 30 minutes before the burn. 

Then a beautiful ancient African horn call to attend to the ceremony worked in somewhere appropriately.

Silent Burns are borderline sacrosanct to me and are some of the most profound experiences of my life. But I felt that we could weave a new AfrikaBurn musical magic from the moment the first flames were lit with a couple of insanely powerful ambient tracks, climaxing with THAT Wicked Games cover at the peak of the burn. 

As the thousands of intentions floated up with the collapsing embers, it was always going to be a time for renewed hope and refreshed resolve. So, with some echoing religious chants still reminding us of the recent physical existence of Gaia's Song, the cosmic downtempo tracks were a reminder that Gaia's Song gifted release by F-a-y-a for those of us burdened and that it might be time to move on again, but also that, for many of us, the Temple represents and abundance of positive thoughts and joy.

Only days before the Temple Burn, after intense introspection and consultations, we decided to abandon the original ideas for the sake of the Silent Burn and to fashion something from where I ended up weaving in Wicked Games.  

I can still hear it, those first strains, indelibly etched into my memory...

"The world was was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do."

This is my very first DJ mix ever. This project is part of an assignment for the Wakamaia Ecstatic Dance DJ course. I have no prior experience in DJing or any formal musical education. Thanks to Wakamaia, I’ve gained new skills to begin my journey as an Ecstatic Dance DJ. It’s not perfect, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come, starting from zero.

Flowing On The First Wave

This is my assignment for the graduation event at the Wakamaia Sacred Fun Festival. The festival is a co-creation of an Ecstatic Dance journey, where each student contributes by performing a part of the journey. I have been assigned to perform the integration phase, which is the final stage of an Ecstatic Dance journey. In this phase, participants are guided to settle and absorb the emotional, physical, and energetic experiences they’ve encountered during the dance. It typically follows the "landing" phase, as the music slows and transitions into grounding, calming, and reflective sounds.
