STOA (Matt Wagner, San Francisco)
https://soundcloud.com/stoamusic

I was introduced to the Project Heart community about 3 years ago through my girlfriend, Mai, and ever since have felt increasingly thankful for finding this community.  I think of Project Heart as my tribe.  Our wonderful faeries, Ani and Silvi, have created something very special.

As a small passion project, I'm assisting the faeries with the Project Heart online music presence via Soundcloud.  The importance of music in Project Heart can't be overstated (one of many important elements of PH, to be sure).  While we all have varying tastes and interest levels, its the reason most of us have met one another...a starting point on the path to deeper connections.

To that end, let me present the very first Project Heart 'Heartcast' from yours truly, STOA aka Matt Wagner.  Since beginning to DJ about 18 months ago, Ani and Silvi have shown such love and support for my music, including the opportunity to play at last year's Jungle Heart Decompression.

This mix is a representation of the Deep House that has been catching my ear recently, and a good introduction to Stoa, in general.  Hope you enjoy.

A Heart in Nature she is, a sound alchemist and a close friend of our community. Honored to have as a guest for our 5th installment of our Heartcast: @TamaraMontenegro as  ✺ Naoba ✺

"I am transporting into alter ego NAOBA - which is the extinct native people of Ometepe island in Nicaragua. Ancient messages through love and sound. 
Enjoy <3"

wooohooooo!! Special set, Vinyl Only, by our super talented Project Heart artist based in Berlin  Krabben Öde @vonlux. 

"I recorded this mix after a night in a bar called Fragments of Urban Culture. I met an old friend there and we had a long chat about his childhood. He always has these convulsions which I was aware of but never asked why they occur.. So he told me the story..."

The Boring Crab (Krabben Öde) turns out to be not so boring....quite the opposite. He's setting us up for a journey! Buckle up and enjoy ! <3

When @Dimitriosmusic landed in our life... we felt like the Universe really has a good plan for all of us. He's a modern music alchemist and believer that there's no distinction between dream in reality. Apart from a group sound healing that he leaded as Music Medicine, he blessed us with a power morning glory celebration journey on the beautiful coast of Kabak Valley. Here is a remake of the set! 

“A submissive Black Hole is a time machine, but of course is not exactly… practical!
Time travel to the future. Time flows like a river.
Seems as if each of us is carried relentlessly along by time's current.
In your mind you must be free. At any point the body or knowledge being vast as it is can transcend the incapable thought processes.
For we are here from another time and space, literally making Aliens organised!”

@david-pontbriand "This set was recorded live on the small island of Cát Bà (Vietnam), last September after Burning Man. As such, it’s a blend of my favourite desert-inspired sounds, both old and new. It’s far from perfect, being my second time playing in front of a crowd – but it comes from the heart!

Special thanks to David (Noema) and Elif for their useful advice. Music is a true passion for me and this is something I’ve always wanted to do, but never actually took the time to learn. Project Heart has been the catalyst.

Thank you for your open hearts and ears <3"

Very excited to share our next Heartcast, the ninth, courtesy of our brothers from Belgium, Stijn and Bert.  I met Bert two years ago when me and the PH family from San Francisco welcomed him to Chemuyil.  I quickly felt a bond with Bert, and was lucky to meet Stijn last year.  They are two of the big reasons I decided to return to Tulum this year, and I speak for many when I say they continue to inspire with their music.  Love you guys and keep sharing your gift <3

This special human joined our HEARTRIBE couple of years ago, under the South African skies on pirate journey into the Everland... today he dedicated his selection of vinyl inspired by LOVE to two of his favorite Faeries, the HEART FAERIES ❤A Love interlude, Late nights include.

"As a good friend asked me to do a bedroom friendly podcast, and I recorded some of my vinyl where I wanted to bring some Awareness to the Love we give to our female companions. It's dedicated to women. but pleasurable for both! I kinda made it with bedroom-pleasure-sleeze&cheese in mind. There's also some hidden Love messages for the Special one. 
Enjoy some of my Soul, R&B, HipHop, Funk, Disco and Bedroom Slammers

The lucky number 13 comes from Sebastian Ayala ( @seboayala ). Hailing from Neuquen, Patagonia, there's a sense of detail and perfectionism in his track selection and the way he blends melodies that reminds of a dreamer facing the picturesque landscape of the southernmost tip of South America. 

We've met Sebastian this past winter in Tulum, his homebase and developed a friendship based on appreciation of music, artists and the the good dancefloors around town <3

Our favorite swedes, ADAM & DANIEL, had gifted us this month's heartcast in anticipation to their first SIX SENSES experience in Turkey. 

When they are not behind the decks, you might find them plotting for their next SECRET SANGHA gathering, a sister community of ours from Stockholm. Together with Marcus they are visionaries that aim not only for happy dancefloors but also for creating a platform for meaningful connections! 
Enjoy <3

Heartcast 15 - The Rev.

Super happy to welcome TantRut with his musical gift, just days after he  enchanted us with a mesmerizing journey in a castle outside of Stockholm for a Secret Sangha event (collaboration with Project Heart) ! HIGHLIGHT ***

"TantRut  (@tantrut) moved to the tiny Swedish island Brännö after seven wild years in Berlin. There he got inspired on legendary full moon beach raves to pick up DJing. His mixes contain tracks with elements of deep tribal dance music, folkloric sounds and rhythms in a modern electronic house version. He sparkles with energy and ideas to co-create events and is a regular DJ at burning man related festivals around the world. After AfrikaBurn festival he decided to donate all DJ Revenues to the Bridges for Music charity that supports less fortunate artists from townships in Cape Town."

Never leave the island

Our connection to Turkey is no secret to anyone who follows Project Heart! We love our community there, the land, the people, the music....
This edition, we have invited Headwaters to share their love for music with us. Headwaters is an electronic music collaboration of  Engin Ozbatir and Onur Okutan.

"In 2010, Engin, whose interest in electronic music has dramatically increased by means of the decisive influence of numerous local and foreign musicians that he has listened at “1888-Nightclub” in Izmir,  started his career at the relevant club as Resident DJ
Onur has started his performing career via playing electro guitar by his early age and carried on his passion by composing his own songs.
Throughout his bachelor degree he had the chance to improve his competency on playing numerous instruments including but not limited to piano, violoncello and trumpet.

In recent years, as he has moved his productivity to electronic music, by the inspiration drawn from the infinity of the sounds used during production process, he decided to have his master degree on sound engineering.

Onur met Engin in 2016 via sending his song and their passion for techno music had brought them together so that they started to produce together under the name of Headwaters.
Consequently, Headwaters has existed via combination of music knowledge and instrument skills of Onur and wide electronic music experience of Engin. They have been blending their melodic musical infrastructure with techno music in his setlists which include their own productions as well"

Heartcast 18 - TISKO live at Habitat

Welcome to the HeartCast @radiorapha! ❤ 
He was introduced to us by @brandontle who's been taken into the outer space by Radio Rapha's music at WonderFruit festival (Thailand) in the fascinating 360 degrees sound stage ALTN8

The mix he blended for Project Heart start and ends with a HEARTBEAT and  "transcribes a dry wide plateau through which a warm wind blows that brings back memories... "
So cozy! ❤ 
................

Radio Rapha loves music. no, wait. Radio Rapha LOVES music!

He wanders through the world with open ears and absorbs whatever sounds interesting to him. Over the years he incorporated many different acoustic styles of music from all over the world into his DJ sets. 

Through friendship with the founders of the legendary Bar25, he first came into contact with electronic music and fell in love.
He discovered that this type of electronic music, in its simplicity and with its repetitions, was able to interlace with the primary found acoustic sounds and atmospheres. Being a vagabond at heart, he is still discovering new dimensions and endless combinations and sees himself as an advanced beginner in a time of exploration. 

Sticking to moods rather than musical genres, he’s constantly pushing
towards a journey through new landscapes: through the desert, over the sea and into the jungle - living among the mountains.

Radio Rapha is a founder of the DJ-collective «Laschan Laschan» which aims to spread organic and open minded electronic music in their surroundings. They regularly organize the Downtempo-Event «Club Lento» in Bern.

Heartcast 20 is here with a special guest >>> @therealpineappleguy
We've met Perry in Mexico where he joined one of our Heartribe gatherings (www.heartribe.space ). It was pure connection of love from the beginning. His willingness to share his talents and skills and his determination for following what feels good, rather than what is trending made him such a good match for our family. 

<<Every song, a purpose; every note, an intention. An international yoga teacher and DJ, Perry began weaving sound into his classes with his first mix in 2016.
Combining downtempo, tribal house, and ethereal electronic melodies, his mix series 'The Space Between' has reached all edges of the globe, amassing 100,000+ plays on SoundCloud alone in 2018.
He has continued to share music and teach yoga at festivals and events worldwide, gaining support from artists and record labels including Magician On Duty (Miami), Deep House LA (Los Angeles), Souq Records (Tulum), Project Heart (Tulum/Istanbul), Gardens of Babylon (Netherlands/Germany), Resueno Records (San Marcos La Laguna) Cosmic Convergence Festival (Guatemala) and more.

His guest mix for Magician on Duty was picked up on Spotify with a beautiful compliment offered by Afterhour Sounds who described it as "Slow and with a proper portion of sandman dust... a magical, emotional set... a treat from the realm of slowing."

Perry currently resides in San Marcos La Laguna, Guatemala where he helps co-create music and ecstatic dance events and teaches yoga at The Yoga Forest.

Wisdom is knowing we are nothing. Love is recognizing we are everything. Our lives move in The Space Between."

Check out his upcoming retreat: Finding The Space Between: An Immersive Experience in Guatemala https://www.facebook.com/events/525432354873095/

Project Heart is an alternative living paradise, with music at its core.  Music is the soundtrack that helps align and synchronize our higher frequencies...it enhances the energy that we build when we are together. 

We made it our mission to create a platform to showcase INCREDIBLY TALENTED ACTS. Some with a reputation that precedes them, and others who haven't received their deserved recognition...just yet.

Who better to showcase this talent than a bunch of music & heart loving people looking for something different.
