Introducing : OPUS PODCAST #OPOD

Parce que la fête continue aussi dans vos salons

OPUS c’est un collectif d’artistes avec tous des influences différentes mais une idée commune depuis la création du collectif en 2022 : Créer une communauté pour danser ensemble, un espace autour de valeurs communes.

Aujourd’hui, dans cet esprit et pour pousser l’expérience un peu plus loin nous allons commencer une série de sets avec quelques surprises pour vous…

🇬🇧: Because the party goes on in your living room too

OPUS is a collective of artists, all with different influences but with a common idea since the collective was founded in 2022: to create a community for dancing together, a space based on shared values.

Today, in this spirit and to take the experience a step further, we're going to start a series of sets with a few surprises in store for you...

1st set of the series with resident NIKX, who returns to the collective's origins with a pure trance, hardgroove and hardtechno set.

Opulent Temple Podcast #157 - Elsa Seal - Live at Burning Man Sacred Dance 2024

A collective of Parisian artists with an eclectic sound ranging from disco house to trance or dnb 💿

Join us at our next event.

For the unexposed, the Opulent Temple started as a Large Scale Art & Music theme camp at the annual Burning Man arts festival that takes place in the Black Rock desert of Nevada the week before Labor Day. We throw nightly parties showcasing underground, world class electronic dance music in a setting of art and creation we've made ourselves. Our community and fund raising events are based in San Francisco, and though our production is associated with the BM event, you can find us in many settings wherever there's fun to be had.

The Vision of the Opulent Temple is to gift a space for sacred dance to world class dance music. It is our intention to create the space for peak experience, community development, and inspiration that serves as a road map for what's possible in the so called 'default world.' The effort is self generated by the tribe, ie., no one gets paid to create our production. On the contrary, key members put a lot of their own time, effort, and sometimes money all year around to bring it back every year.

It's not just about partying.

It is our view that social change will not happen without individuals doing their part to elevate our collective spiritual center of gravity. Thus, it is our responsibility to nudge our own evolution to catch up with the outpaced growth of technology without the soul getting left behind. It's within this community of creative seekers that coalesces around the playa tribes that leaders must emerge to help steer this nation and this world towards a better day.

To create a space for Sacred Dance is to create a playground for connection with the Eternal, but in our case, still infused with the need for social action in the real world. Big beats and community are the launching point for insight to remind us there is a point to evolution. Transcendence, and nothing less. It might sound like hippy New Age shit, but in this case that doesn't mean it isn't true...

The Musical Vision
We're obviously firm believers in the beat, the transcending properties of mind blowing electronic dance music (EDM), both to open the heart and make the ass shake depending on one's preference and the moment. We value diversity in the range of world class artists that play our camp, as well as the camp dj's who build it so get to play what they feel. Most nights are fairly cohesive unto themselves, but day to day it can be all over the place. Our past line ups speak for themselves.

We'll see you in the sweet spot, under the stars...
