Fusion & Flow

Simplicity

Private party on 7/18/25. I had the final time slot at the end of the night. Tracks are blended together for continuous flow and depth of connection- no pauses. By this point in the evening, shall we say encouraging partner switching was no longer the goal.

"The Sultry Smolder" - Sexy Fusion Partner Dance Play Party (Mixed Fusion Closing DJ Set, 7/18/25)

LAFF 2 DA BANK (prod. Benjicold & prodbyXizions)

Melt 8/8/25 (Fusion Dance DJ Set)

From my post just before playing the event:

Tomorrow I return to play again for one of my favorite fusion dances! Nestled in the immaculate vibes of the Berkeley Alembic, Alchemy of Fusion is just as fantastic for beginners as it is also a playground for the experienced. Entry includes tea service, access to lovely lounge areas, and a class on "turning together" by David Kaminsky.

As fate would have it, I'm once again paired with Mark Carpenter as our second DJ! Last time we worked together, our sets complimented each other amazingly well, so this should be something special!

While I often play completely freestyle at fusion dances, this time I'll be playing off a curated shortlist with a few particular themes inspired by some of my favorite experiences at Alchemy. Flavor notes will include: deep, dreamy, worldly, sensual, intrigue, and immersion with nature. I love so much about this list that the hardest part will be deciding what not to play!

Schedule:

7:30 - Class with David Kaminsky
8:30 - DJ Quintessence 
10:00 - DJ Mark Carpenter

DJ Quintessence (Lexi Battle, she/her) is one of the most diverse and musically nuanced acts you’ll find performing today. In addition to being a lead DJ and organizer of the “Ecstaturday” Ecstatic Dance in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, she is also a resident DJ in partnership with The Omni Movement, a progressive partner dance studio located in Oakland. You’ll most commonly find her playing for Fusion Dance, Brazilian Zouk, or West Coast Swing around the Bay Area, though she also holds passion for her unique take on club-style EDM. As a highly multidisciplinary DJ and music producer, she brings lessons and influences from each of the music scenes she’s involved with into all of the others, giving her a unique perspective that allows her to hybridize the elements that work from the different scenes and let them inform each other.


Quintessence is a master of the intentional dance journey. She begins with tempos and rhythms designed to warm the body up while the melodic content creates emotional depth and intrigue that set the stage for what’s to come. Each stage successively builds on what we’ve experienced in the last, taking us somewhere new that still feels part of the same story. The crescendos and climaxes interplay with periods of moderate rest and reflection to create a series of waves through various energies and moods. Finally, we come to the sentimental landing and closing stages where we can integrate what we’ve experienced as the journey nears its end, perhaps indulging in one final burst of joy or artistic expression before sending us off to what’s next.


As a dancer herself whose life has been transformed by the practice, Quintessence always plays for the party she wants to be at. Her work often defies genre, weaving through a great many of them throughout the journey in delightfully surprising ways. As she’s a multidisciplinarian with extremely broad taste, you’ll never get the same experience with DJ Quintessence twice. She’ll make you move, make you melt, take you to places beyond words, and leave you wanting more.


DJ Quintessence has shared a stage with acts such as DJ Kakah, Tzoul, Fab, Dhroovy, Mark Carpenter, Exuberance, Intrepid, Ji, Kurama, and Andrew Roth. She can be found on Instagram, SoundCloud, Spotify, and all other major music platforms.

May the Spirit of Dance lift you up on the Wings of Freedom 🕊

​​​​​Wren has been instigating dance parties since 2008. Always working with an awareness of the room he's in, Wren crafts dance sets that are sonic journeys facilitating deeper embodiment, connection and presence. 

Having danced his own way towards freedom since 1998 with his roots in swing, salsa, hip-hop and contemporary styles, he holds a deep connection to the power of dance to liberate, and the importance of the music fueling the journey.

As a deep inner somatic practicioner himself, Wren innately understands his role as an ecstatic technician when behind the wheel of the spaceship: to open the pathway and invite dancers to go where few have gone before. 

He also throws down booty bouncing bass sets that open up your sacral chakra and unwind your spine, as well as deep downtempo sets that drop you into the far reaches of the subtle currents of consciousness.

His broad musical tastes and hyper-attuned facilitation skills offer a container for the numinous experience of spinaesthesia to emerge: seeing sound as movement and becoming the music. Wren welcomes you home to yourself, to let go of what is not serving, and better still, integrate that shift and be danced into the divine. ❤️‍🔥
