Great questions.  Thanks for the recording.

really reaggeaton?? 🤢 it was almost a good set

If this is the last DJ set i ever play,
What songs do I include?

If I can play whatever i wish, creating a journey for myself,
what do I play?

If i'm here to serve the dancers and the larger community, 
what do I play?

If I can only repeat ONE song that I played in the past,
what song would that be?

What songs have i resisted playing because i was afraid people aren't gonna like them?

What is one 'rule' that I imposed on myself that i can bend, or even break?

When is striving for quality justified, and when does it become debilitating perfectionism ?

If i'm intending to share this DJ set online, how does that affect the journey?

These are some of the questions and feelings i'm experiencing when I'm preparing for and playing an Ecstatic Dance journey.

I played this journey live at my event "Sacred Rhythms Ecstatic Dance" in Koh PhaNgan, Thailand.

I had the pleasure of playing an ecstatic dance set in Antigua for the budding E-dance family of Guatemala...its such a honor to see these communities popping up and growing all over the world; another node in the mycelial network of conscious dance!  
Lots of new and unreleased material in this one...enjoy!

Sharing The Vibe Special Birthday set by Yonder

Music for the soul and heart, a healing mechanism that triggers notes of higher vibrations, including exotic - hypnotic shamanism, passes through a slow motive on its way to the most radiant, individual and clear sound of the soul. With love from VadimoooV

Музыка  для души и сердца, исцеляющий механизм запускающий ноты высших вибраций, включающие в себя экзотически - гипнотический шаманизм, проходит через медленный мотив на своем пути к само сияющему, индивидуальному и ясному звуку души. С любовью от VadimoooV

June-September in Europe.

As an Ecstatic Dance Activist and Mentor, my mission is to Deepen the dance experience, Grow and diversify the community, and support the organizers and teams.

I'm inspired by growing up in a multi-cultural family, playing classical piano for 7 years, life-long dancing and music-collecting, 20 years of traveling, and an extensive study, practice, and teaching of tantric yoga, personal development and conscious business.

I weave traditional, popular, organic and electronic music from cultures and ethnic groups around the world into dance journeys that invoke the mystic, the lover and the animal within us.
