The Journey

All of my ecstatic dance sets from 2023. This year I've played more frequently and for a variety of different events so there is an emergent variety of styles represented.  I've also started to blend sound baths with my gong and singing bowls into the closing stillness section of my sets.

Thank you for listening and enjoy the journey(s) into the cathartic power of music movement, and sound.

Opening Set for MOSE at Sol Dance - May 12, 2023

Engagement request: please like, repost, and send me a direct message asking for the playlist and I'll send it ova. Thank you! Engagement is a huge help on this platform for all of us artists. 

Played originally at Asheville Movement Collective on May 12th, 2023. Re-recorded and refined some transitions before publishing it two days later.

The theme for this dance is inspired by a poem referenced in many Hollywood films, perhaps most notably in the blockbuster movie “Interstellar.” Written by Welsh poet Dylan Thomas in 1947, it has been suggested that it was written for his dying father.   

“Do not go gentle into that good night” 
by Dylan Thomas

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

More info here about the poem can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_not_go_gentle_into_that_good_night

This ecstatic dance set explores the theme of interstellar and inter-dimensional travel both through the portal of dying, and through the portal of distorted perceptions caused by love, desire, fear, angst, and rage. It will resolve itself into a space where surrender, grief and courage can take root before taking flight.

3AMStillAlive Remix

3AMStillAlive (Remix) [feat. orbit]

As we bask in the energies of this sacred portal, we weave the transformative essence of the Lion's Gate with the profound words that once echoed through time:

💥If in the past, I surrendered my power to others, allowing them to steer my life, I now revoke that choice.

💥If in the past, I swore to never experience the joy of freedom and independence, I now renounce that vow.

💥If in the past, I made agreements rooted in fear of judgment, I now release those contracts.

💥If in the past, I chose a life of loneliness and isolation to avoid suffering, I now let go of that decision.

💥If in the past, I favored the mind over the heart, I now choose to balance the two.

💥If in the past, I believed that love wasn't worth living for, I now declare it as the essence of life itself.

💥In this present moment, I release all vows, agreements, and accusations made in the past.

💥This is where the shift happens, here and now.

This track is tuned to the frequency of 444Hz, known for its powerful healing properties and spiritual benefits. Listening to this elevated frequency can promote harmony and balance within, enhance intuition, and raise your energetic vibration.

🌟 Embrace your inner sovereignty as you journey through each note, breaking free from the shackles of the past.

🌟 Witness the magic of transformation as old limitations crumble, giving rise to a renewed sense of empowerment.

🌟 Let the rhythms guide you towards balance, as the dance of the number 8 intertwines with the healing frequencies of 444Hz.

🌟 This track beckons cosmic wisdom to awaken within, promoting intuition and raising your energetic vibration.

Whether you're curating a sacred space, guiding ecstatic dance, or seeking a musical journey that resonates with the Lion's Gate energy, this creation serves as an anthem of empowerment, healing, and cosmic alignment.

Elevate your sonic experience with this 444Hz sound journey, where intention and frequency converge to illuminate your path of self-discovery and manifestation. 🎶🌌🔮

A Dance with Infinity

Home of high-quality Downtempo & Balearic hymns, the Buenos Aires-based outlet Fértil Discos is the place to be for those who like to lose themselves to mesmerising slo-mo cuts. Their ever-growing catalogue is second to none amid such genres and fails to disappoint whenever they add another brick in the wall. 

Doubt? Just check out the brand-new addition to the Fértil’s solid wall: “Muchas Estrellas” is the starry result of the collaboration between the Argentinian artists El Remolón (programming, synths, and electric guitar) and Brawlio (vocals) – not their first rodeo together, by the way: They have already successfully teamed up before and came up with the well-received "Los Pájaros", also published on Fértil.

El Remolón & Brawlio’s “Muchas Estrellas” is a reversion of "Contrapunto de Tonadas", originally compiled by Leda Valladares in 1991 and performed by Alcira Puca and Santos Estrada, and comes packed with heavy doses of emotion and sentimentality delivered through its beautiful vocals, groovy percussive elements, mellow guitar riffs, and smooth synth layers.  

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://fertildiscos.bandcamp.com/

Follow @elremolon, @djbrawlio and @fertildiscos, peeps!

PREMIERE510 // El Remolón + Brawlio - Muchas Estrellas

Live recording played at Beat Church Asheville on Aug 1st, 2023. 

Please like, repost, and leave three comments for me and DM me after you have, and I will send you an export of my Traktor playlist with all of my comments, track and artists names, so you can study the progression I used in crafting this wave. It's a great resource for ecstatic dance djs and enthusiasts, and the engagement helps me to get more listens.

Theme was centered around finding and being the peace which we wish to see in our lives, in society, and on this planet. From inner peace, we truly can transform all that which surrounds us. Keep doing the inner work, it's worth it, and the inhabitants here on this beautiful blue green planet are counting on you.

Be in Peace {Ecstatic Dance Mix by MIKAYA}

Lyrics: 


I hope u will never see me 
the way I see myself 
Can’t tell you what will change now 
but please don’t be afraid 

Just wait until 
We both begin 
To stop fucking caring about the fear 

But listen listen
I don’t think I can resist that 
But I know I know 
That u can’t resist too 

Someday I will
Learn to be egoistic 
So why don’t I 
Start right now 

And even though I try 
So hard when you’re around 
I don’t want you to think 
That you’re the reason why 

If you don’t get my view 
Come closer I’ll prove you 
That no matter what you do 
I can see what is true 

But listen listen
I don’t think I can resist that 
But I know I know 
That u can’t resist too 

Someday I will
Learn to be egoistic 
So why don’t I 
Start right now

Egoist

Intention: Dynamic Range 

Referring to the range of values that a system can capture, represent, or reproduce. Dynamic range can be applied to audio, photography, or dance. In audio, it pertains to the difference between the softest and loudest sounds a device can accurately handle. In photography, dynamic range refers to the range of tones, from the darkest to the brightest, that a camera can capture.

In the context of ecstatic dance, dynamic range refers to the spectrum of movements and expressions a dancer can embody using motion, energy, and emotional states with fluidly and curiosity. From subtle and gentle motions to bold and powerful movements, this dance aims to stretch the dancer to their limits, in order to create a more immersive and transformative dance experience. 

Played on 1/5/2024 @ Haw Creek Commons, Asheville, NC. Pls like, repost and comment to feed my algo-rhythm. Danke!
