Spring is in the air.. along with a (slow) wind of change. Get your dancing shoes on!

Playworks is.. a monthly podcast based on the idea that "playwork is the work of creating and maintaining spaces for children to play. The theory and practice of playwork recognises that children's play should ideally be "freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated." (wiki)

Arjuna Schiks - Ankaa (BLANCAh remix)

One of my most popular songs from back in the days turned into a classical emotional downtempo ambient/electronica version! Very happy with the beautiful recordings of the hypnotising harp and warm cello for this one..  And last but not least the soulful africanish electronic guitar riffs! Enjoy! <3

The Olmec culture was defined and unified by a specific art style. Crafted in a variety of materials—jade, clay, basalt, and greenstone, which is an archaeologist's term for carved, green-colored minerals—much Olmec art is naturalistic. Other art expresses fantastic anthropomorphic—human-shaped—creatures, often highly stylized, using an iconography reflective of a spiritual meaning. Common motifs include downturned mouths and cleft heads, both of which are seen in representations of were-jaguars and the rain deity.

Moon Release #42 [28.06.2018]

June's full moon is brought to you by German talent Landhouse. Influenced by the techno party scene during the naughty Nineties, he started deejaying in early 2000.  Hosting a small Party row in Erdbeermund Karlsruhe called Wohnstubendisko since 2008, Landhouse started producing in 2014. 

His compositions are deep and touching, very powerful tools to unfold profound emotions and able to take you from dreamy atmospheres to the tenebrous side of music. 

We are proud to announce that this mix contains some inedited songs from his new 8 track Album LIFE, to release here on Pachamama mid July 2018. Watch this space and enjoy this podcast in the meantime!

June's Full Moon: Landhouse

Our next story is told by Hekske, who left the forest for the summer to refill her sun tank. In her backpack she had left some space for this special set. :)

Thank you very much @hekske !! <3 

"It was a beautiful summer day, the young couple enjoying their lazy trip along the coastline in their convertible. This was surely the most beautiful day of their vacation, as they rolled through the lush green landscape, savoring the scent of all these flowers. They stopped occasionally to enjoy each other’s company, sucking up the breathtaking landscapes or sipping from sizzling champagne, looking forward to yet another lazy day and sparkling night. They both had the feeling that this was for real, that they finally found their soul mate.
They drove into the hills, following a winding road over a mountain pass. The landscape was still beautiful on the other side of the mountains, but the greenery was gone and it was just a desert. As they drove through this desolate landscape, the mood changed. A sense of loneliness descended upon them. They started to doubt… what would happen if their car broke down? Would they be able to make it to the other side, where the mountains looked even more beautiful, but still so far away? Then a red warning light started to flash on the dashboard and all of a sudden the engine stalled. The car came tantalizingly slowly to a halt and the young couple looked anxiously at each other… Would this be the end? They had no idea what kind of test was waiting for them…"

"Within each woman is a Goddess of Wisdom, deeply connected to the phases of the moon,to the heart of the earth and to the tides of the sea. All we need...is to remember" (Gwendolyn LaFae)

In the last new & full moon cycle, I felt something really beautiful occurring... The dis-covering of- & the connection with the divine feminine within... This deep rich unconditional Love caressed and awakened me, whispered tenderness, showed me softness with a rising self empowerment. It blessed me with strength and courage, filled me with selfrespect, confidence, trust and inspiration for creation. 
I had forgotten... In a still male dominated society & culture, humans seem to forget that there's an equal feminine force  involved in creation, balancing the masculine which I respect and honor fervently.  The powerful fire of grandfather Sun, our Wonderful Star, the Grand Space of infinite Creations, Powerful in al it's forms,, the Roughness & Rawness of Existence...I love the strong masculine energy :)

But The Divine Feminine is Equally Powerful. More subtle, modest, yet Omnipresent all around & within us. She Loves unconditionally, brings Balance, creates Harmony, connects & opens the Heart(s), she's the moulder of the natural world, It is the Womb, where Life is formed. She's the portal through the Infinite. 
She is feminine beauty, and women are gifted & blessed with all aspects of her power. Some call her the Mother Goddess. Planet Earth is one of her many physical appearances, nourishing our Existence, as a heartwarming caring mother...but she also is present in each and everyone of us, men & women alike, we are her children, we are her creations, we are her existence, we are the divine...  

With this set, I want to honor this divine feminine...
I wish the rise of the feminine within us all will awaken & heal the world <3

"Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" is a five hour, fully connected journey designed to musically guide a group or individual through an entire psilocybin experience, start to finish. 

This album aims to forge a new shamanic path — one that is birthed of our musical tools and the technology of our time while also honoring and inspired by the rich history of our human relationship to psychedelic plants and fungi. 

My album's compositional shape guides the arch of the ceremony experience. The music of the current psilocybin public research therapy playlists (like those offered by Johns Hopkins and Imperial College) is an amalgamation of tracks by different composers - none of the songs were originally intended for psilocybin. Further, most of these songs are comparatively short. The songs of "Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" have a slow and gentle growth, an organic progression that aligns with the waves of feeling and experience in the psychedelic journey. This progressive unfolding allows the journeyer to enter into sonic and emotional worlds gradually, to explore the psychic depths with peaceful transitions that allow for time to integrate the experience before moving into the following song or space. 

Additionally, "Music For Mushrooms" integrates original nature field recordings throughout the composition. Field recordings of “that which is still wild”, provides a soothing synthesis of nature into what might otherwise be a staid and sterile therapeutic setting. Sounds of nature can unlock memories, calm our senses, and contain a texture that welcomes our most ancient self home — whether a chorus of crickets or a gentle mountain breeze. 

As mentioned, "Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" was recorded and improvised live, inside ceremony.  In this way, it contains the ‘energy of the medicine’.  

The new album is intentionally conducive to the psychedelic experience in a variety of additional ways, like avoiding lyrical content so as not to spark the language centers of brain. The record employs falsetto vocalizations throughout, utilizing a non-lyrical language composed primarily of improvised vowels. This allows for the benefits of vocals without the potential language triggers of lyrics. With the live looping technology I employ harmonies and a full choir can develop. 

I’ve always intuitively felt that the solutions our world needs will not come from the top down. Rather, the answers we’ve been looking for will come from the inside out. By exploring our interior landscape to heal our traumas, to root out shame, to learn to love ourselves, we empower our ability to make positive changes that echo out into our lives and the world around us. 
-East Forest
