This year I had the distinct honor of being the first DJ of the year for the Sebastopol Ecstatic Dance in Northern California. Coincidentally, many years ago, I helped start the Sebastopol Ecstatic Dance with some of my dearest friends. I was the first DJ to play an Ecstatic Dance in Sebastopol. It was kind of a homecoming for me as I love the Ecstatic Dance format, but haven't been playing in this world for a while... since my 3 year tour with Wanderlust Festival which ended a while back.

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy this set I put together and dance through the journey I offered to the amazing room of dancers and friends. Thank you, Loi for keeping the flame alive. ;)

Zack Darling Live: Ecstatic Dance Sebastopol

Yummy vocal old school house set with a modern feminine twist!

2024 - 06 - 07 Soul City

Soooo here it is, my latest offering, an audible morsel, a tasty little musical treat dug deep from my soul containing all the tunes I have been loving/playing to absolute death this past year or so. Always such a challenge to narrow it down but each of the tracks themselves tend pave the way to the next and in the end the process becomes somewhat out of my hands 🙌
.
.
.
I am thankful for all the original creators who have provided this most recent soundtrack to my life, they have joined me while travelling far and wide to Japan, Canada, the States and the UK, they have serenaded me in the garden and on crafternoons, in the kitchen and my yoga mat and on walks, hikes, rides and long drives alike always enhancing the beauty of the scenes I find myself in.
.
.
.
They have soothed me, moved me and inspired me in ways I find it hard to articulate and so in a way this here little mix is my way of both giving back and paying it forward so others might have a chance to connect with their creations. Honorable mention to Mayyadda for the opening mantra and East Forest and Duncan Trussell for the final thought provoking track So What?

The beauty of sharing this home recording in lieu of the live set is that it gave me the ability to leave a number of tracks intact with their original flow and integrity rather than slicing, dicing or skipping along to squeeze everything into my allocated time slot. 

On that note, ran out of time to play the final track I had hoped but it is so so beautiful and fitting to the event i've chosen to include it in hopes it still reaches the ears of who might need to hear it <3

TSA THE WITCH weaves her magick in this Slomosensual mix through storytelling of love and longing for the beloved while reflecting the playful nature of life and its transitions from how we show up in love. It reflects the sadness, the playfullness, the deep heart love and ache while taking a listener on a deep journey into states of lovemaking with the music itself. The set changes its moods reflecting the feminine and her feelings that translate into melodic melodies and grimy, sexy bass of chaos. It sprinkles in some old memories of the songs that we all used to love and dance to and ignites and opens the hearts of those willing to receive.

TSA THE WITCH is devoted to inspiring feelings and embodied movement through her sets wether it is audio tapes or playing for festivals and Ecstatic Dances world wide.

This mix is like an introduction to Leif Time's nustalgic, groovy vibes.

It's an ode to summer and my Leo end-of-summer party roots.

It's my gift to all my friends headed home to Black Rock City and honoring of a place and race of being that inspire such creativity and LIFE!  It's a little artistic contribution in honor of the best art festival on planet earth.  

Hope you enjoy.
