Feeling so blessed to be able to share some 4-4 rollers with this amazing crowd out dancing at a one night, two stage micro festie.
This was a super fun set to play. Leaning towards the tech/progressive house end of the spectrum. 

Much love and appreciation to the organizers of the night, particularly the Footwork crew and Daniel James for asking me to play and giving me a sweet set time to really rock it. 
Deepest gratitude to Brook for the feedback and support to make it happen <3

Caçadora - Summer Sessions

The existence of Dodd has long been questioned by those who've not been on his dancefloor -- but those who've been there are fast and thorough believers. From his humble beginnings as a dancefloor observer, Dodd carefully catalogued the sounds and reactions of the people in order to pinpoint the perfect palette of progressive sounds: blending trancey, glitchy, dubby and techy tidbits into memorable dancefloor journeys that transcend sonic expectations. With these dancefloor commandments Dodd has been rocking crowds consistently in Victoria and beyond since 2008. Whether you're a believer or not, with the speakers as his chorus, you will be moved by the voice of Dodd...

A dedicated music enthusiast, TIGRESS has always had a deep connection to the dancefloor. It was in 2013 when she stepped up to the decks and quickly proved herself to be a natural, earning her stripes with her flavorful taste. Since then, TIGRESS has been playing shows across BC and delving into the realm of music production. Anticipate her upcoming EP and a collection of releases in 2025. With her infectious energy and keen ear for music, you can expect to hear some House-y, Tech-y, Bass-y goodness! Based in Victoria, TIGRESS is proud to be a founding member of The PLUR Collective, and actively contributes to the organization of queer-centric, body positive events that continue a legacy of activism and radical politics within the dance community.

Entelechy describes a vital agent or force
which helps direct an organism toward self-fulfillment.
From this realm of sonic self-exploration, Entelechy weaves
soundscapes ranging from fully ambient and downtempo,
thru hip-hop, glitch, breaks, psytrance, trance fusions,
and back again. With a background in music theory,
composition, arrangement, production and performance,
he seeks rich environmental textures as a cornerstone
to the myriad sounds and styles telling the stories of our
own becoming(s). In a world where the main.stream is clogged up by
cash money radio's river of commercialized beat-structures,
Entelechy knows the audiophonic evolution of intentional dance music is
a key to the freeflow of conciousness and to our evolving
relationships to the planet and each other...

MUSIC IS (in) EVERYTHING - it moves my soul! I love it more than anything.

Dancer, bellydancer, flow/fire arts and burlesque performer, singer, musician, mover, shaker, lover.

House (including Progressive & Tech), DnB, and halftime bass sound stylies have my electronic music heart. But I can shake a leg to anything!

I love all kinds of music and hybrid genres.
I also love blending styles in my dance.

I like singing all kinds too; though, I have more of a soulful voice. 

I would love to collaborate musically or performance-wise.

Music is Life! 🎶

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.

As I understand it a conspiracy is supposed to be secret so please don't tell anyone.

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
