Spiritito - ' Sharing the Vibe ' Special 3rd Birthday Set

Played at Asheville Movement Collective on Sunday April 30th, 2023

I wrote a poem for this ecstatic dance set as its intention.

Lion's Mane

Wild wind blown and untamed 
This Mane bares scars 
Marking resilience
Brutal courage
And lingering pain

To all the lions 
And lionesses out there
Still marking their terrain,
The Sun of the Earth
Shines upon your Mane

Lion's Mane {Ecstatic Dance Set by MIKAYA}

Pls like, repost, and leave 3 comments and I'll DM you the set list. <3 Mahalo!

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.

Interstellar Night {Ecstatic Dance Mix by MIKAYA}

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.

“Do you hear your soul calling you to gather in the time of the darkest dark and the lightest light? Dance with us around 100 fires, on the rare alignment in the heavens between the earth, the moon, the sun and the galactic centre June 2020

A time of tuning into the mystery, the dark core. 
A time to follow your inner guidance, 
To journey with those you are physically gathering with and synergise in time and space to activate the dark grid through many fires around the globe.

True power rests neither with the energy of fear and control by the status quo nor in the energy of revolution/rebellion.
It rests outside time and space at the dark core of all things including the human spirit.” ~ Bruce Lyon
