Always so grateful to curate music for the Ecstatic Dance Melbourne community, and felt warmly welcomed back after almost a year since my last booking, a hiatus i requested to prioritise my new role as a father.

This sets theme is 'on the cusp of spring', where we get a chance to shed off the layers of comfort developed during our winter hibernation, embrace change, and begin to look outward as we step into a new season.

Enjoy the journey

Ecstatic Dance Melbourne - Aug 29th 2025

Lo.tess is a multidimensional DJ, performance artist and embodiment facilitator bringing forth a seductive fusion of delicious bass that’s igniting dance floors and conscious events across Melbourne.

With her dynamic and powerful style, she embraces contrast and polarity in sound, moving from high-energy, booty-shakin’ beats and dark deep basslines, to sacred, sensuous, and worldly textures, experimenting across a vast array of genres to create a truly unique experience.

With a deep love for Eastern melodies and rhythms, Lo.tess fuses the ancient with the futuristic, journeying through multicultural and cosmic plains of ethereal and future bass, dubstep, halftime, trap, global and booty bass, and world fusion music. 

Her sets are luminous, fresh, and dripping with attitude.

Lo.tess is also an ecstatic dance DJ curating journeys that move fluidly from meditative sensitivity to explosive rhythms like Balie Funk, Booty Bass, Latin House, Drum and Bass and every genre in between to move the body and emotion in all directions.

Roshin has been guiding dance floors as a musical facilitator for over 14 years, weaving sound into pure feeling. His sets are invitations into emotion—vibrations that move hips, open hearts, and awaken something deeper.

With a frequency-tuning style that flows from Ambient and Electronica into Melodic and Afro House/Tech—often lifted by live percussion—Roshin creates journeys that are both ecstatic and grounding.

Each transition is intentional: he travels through every key, activating layers of the somatic body with yogic precision. The result isn’t just dance—it’s release, renewal, and energy cleansing, a full-body recalibration through rhythm and resonance.

I love to play emotive, energizing electronic dance music, often drawn towards deep, downtempo electronica influenced from instrumental and organic soundscapes from the many cultures of this world. 

My intent is to create meaningful musical journeys suited to anything from a meditative state of reflection, hypnotic movements, and all the way through to ecstatic dance. 

Creating, or shifting the vibe of a space with intention and style is the core element of my sets, using an ebb and flow of musical moods to mold that of the listener, and to move the heart, the body and the soul.
