Trapped Ina Funk

I had the pleasure of sharing music and speaking at A-Fest this year in Costa Rica and what an exceptional experience it was.  I will not try to fully describe the A-Fest experience here (think TED talks meets Burning Man, meets exotic location, meets open-minded, open-hearted, connection seeking, wild dreamers, social changers.....something like that) 

One of my favorite things about A-Fest is that everyone who is sharing/contributing/presenting etc at the event is also attending, learning, co-creating, and dancing (who knew that so many CEO's could get down like that?..... and Lisa Nichols....yes yes).

The theme of this years A-Fest was "Belief Hacking".  I proposed to the MindValley/A-Fest team to not only share music, but to also contribute an abridged version of my presentation "Accessing the Creative Spirit".  

Below are some notes I took from the event.

Joseph Campbell.  "We think we are searching for a meaning for life but what we are really looking for is the experience of being alive.  We want our experiences in the physical plane to mirror our inner experiences so we actually feel the rapture of being alive."

A-Fest's community satisfies one of our base human needs; Connection.  I love hearing the story about Vishan Lakhani (Founder of MIndvalley and A-Fest) "finding his tribe".  We are searching for connection;  To find others who have shared experiences and to discover we are not alone in our experiences. 

For the first several years of creating "The Human Experience" music, I stayed in my bedroom playing for myself.  I didn't have a community who supported my creative expression (music) and I was afraid that no one would resonate with it.  After quitting my job as a personal trainer and manager of an integrated wellness facility in LA,  I traveled around the world, went extreme, pushed my growth edges, and ultimately found a group of people with whom I resonated.  It took years to find the support that I have today.  

We seek validation from others.  This is natural, we want to feel like we are enough.  Until we feel "I AM ENOUGH", we will always return to suffering.  I AM ENOUGH means you are divine.  Your innate creativity which sources from the same ocean of creativity that created the universe.  You are THAT and THAT is enough.  

Creativity is divine.  You are the bridge between spirit and earth

In order to find peace in challenging situations (it seems so easy when all is going according to plan), we must EMBODY "I AM ENOUGH".  Beyond our subconscious programming of self-limiting beliefs, beyond our desire to please others and be accepted, beyond our shame and fears of expressing our authentic self, beyond our guilt of living a life full of abundance and love, beyond the construction of one's "false self" who many of us have created based on what everyone else made you believe you were, YOUR BEINGNESS IS ENOUGH.

You are an operating system.  You can upgrade for free at any time.

“Arrrrggghaaa arrrrghaaaa! Cries Tarzan, and all the beasties come a running. The ground shakes to a thousand pairs of thundering hooves. Tarzan stands stock still in a large clearing, wet-look soft rock hair glistening in the sunlight, loincloth tight, nonchalantly cleaning his nails as the beasts bear down on him… Oooof! The beasties just steamrollered over him and come to a screeching halt at the feet of…  Charlie Beale! As I live and breathe! “Awright Geezers?” says Charlie, “Welcome to Freemixed Nuts Volume 4” and the elephants trumpet euphorically. 

The camera pans around to Leo who’s wearing a banana fancy dress outfit, grinning from ear to ear in the arms of a lovestruck silverback. Waggles and The Fritz are in matching pink tights and tu-tu’s, instructing a chorus line of flamingos the flamenco. Dephicit has covered his chin with lemon curd (again) and is now sporting an incredibly hipster beard made entirely of ants and wasps. X-Ray Ted is playing with the monkeys…oooh, they really shouldn’t be flinging that stuff around, it’ll get in someone’s eye! Get a room! Mr Stabalina is teaching the cutie meerkats to swear, he’s going to hell for that! Bear Twists is..oh my god, he’s TWISTING BEARS! Oh wait, he’s just giving Baloo a Chinese burn. General News turns to the camera, waves a glitter cannon filled with hallucinogenic frogs and says in his best Tony Montana voice, “Say hello to my little friends” and fires his psychoactive ammo. Bam!  …hey, why are my hands so big? Why has everything gone purple? Woah, can you see elephants?

Freemixed Nuts Volume 4, welcome to the jungle!” - Fat harry.

From the Bay Area underground, a monster was born. What could easily be called the United States ‘Mecca’ of Bass Music at the time, My Pet Monster bared witness to the early soundscapes that painted the walls of dimly lit warehouses and nightclubs with their raw and gritty forms throughout the West Coast in the late 2000s. He had a front row seat to witness pioneers of the genre; who laid the foundation for not only his knowledge but also his understanding of the craftsmanship involved. Through this baptism arose an artist driven by passion not only to create immersive music and performances but also a commitment to constant experimentation and artistic growth.

Hailing originally from Kansas City where he now resides, My Pet Monster is a resident DJ, producer, engineer, and educator. The artist, whose real name is Ryan Summers, began songwriting at an early age but didn’t discover electronic music until his early-twenties. His love for punk and metal quickly morphed into an obsession for grimey bass lines and nasty beats. After earning dual degrees in Business and Music from Santa Clara University, he pursued certification in Audio Engineering and Music Production at Pyramind which solidified his technical knowledge and expertise in the field.

Over the years, My Pet Monster has crossed multiple genres, putting his new school spin on many classic eras of American music such as jazz, blues, swing, funk, hip hop, and soul. After returning from a recent hiatus, he has since reconnected with his roots to create and perform darker, more provocative Experimental Bass music. What has rang true throughout all of his creations is to expect the unexpected.

My Pet Monster has musical releases on many established record labels such as Westwood Recordings, Adapted Records, Street Ritual, and MalLabel Music (to name a few) and has earned critical acclaim with multiple singles charting on the Beatport TOP 100. 

His contributions to the music scene have not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by winning the 2012 San Francisco RAW Musician of the Year Award with his former music collective, Deep City Culture, and receiving a 2018 preliminary co-nomination with Grid Division from the Television Academy for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music for their work on 'Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television'.

His touring career has taken him across the continental US, performing at renowned music festivals like Electric Forest, Burning Man, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Roaring City, The Pirate Party, How Weird Street Faire, The Edwardian Ball, San Diego Comic Con, Emissions, Theatre Bizarre, and BottleRock. 

He has shared stages with music icons such as Diplo, DJ Shadow, Del The Funky Homosapien, Dan The Automator, Beats Antique, G Jones, Ganja White Night, The Funk Hunters, Krafty Kuts, Justin Martin, DJ Icey, Big Gigantic, Tsuruda, Dirt Monkey, Charles The First, Yheti, ill.Gates, Defunk, Fort Knox Five, SoDown, Stylust, Minnesota, Buku, LSDREAM, The Polish Ambassador, and many more.
