LUNAR FIRE Tribal Cirque aerialists, acrobats and fire spinners dance to a live band of electronic world music, dance rock and latin hip hop fronted by powerful female vocalists. Lunar Fire theatrical stage dancers tell mythic stories through the use of captivating props and original costuming, video projections on moving screens, 3D objects and performers. Lunar Fire's exciting FIRE SHOW choreography ranges from palm torches, stars, fingers and fans to single and double staffs, dragon staffs, sticks, ropes, swords, machetes, hoops, dreamcatchers and deer antlers. Aerialists and unique aerial rigging includes a free standing metal pyramid for trapeze, lyra (hanging hoop), harness, spanish web (circus rope), chains and silk fabrics.

LUNAR FIRE performances involve a multimedia trans-cultural musical spectacle whose aim is to inspire, connect and empower people to create positive change in the world. Pre-Columbian flutes, multilingual vocalists, powerful drummers, live bass and guitars tell stories reflected in dance. Aerialists, fire spinners and masked performers glow brightly in colorful uv active fabrics first woven by various indigenous tribes from around the world then re-constructed by the dancers to create a visual symbol honoring the unity of all cultures. World class musicians glide smoothly from gypsy rock to latin hip-hop, tribal drumming, and epic psychedelic trance jams. Outdoor fire shows illuminate the night burning staff, wick on chain, ropes, fans, fingers, hand held palm torches, machetes, hula hoops, even antlers. Originating in 2002 in Guatemala and based in Denver CO, members of Lunar Fire have toured over a decade together in various projects (INTI, Kan'Nal, Lil Sum'n Sum'n, Future Simple Project) at hundreds of festivals (Burning Man, LIB, Faerieworlds, Symbiosis, High Sierra, SF Sea of Dreams, OCF, Envision Festival Costa Rica) at underground warehouse parties and deep into the jungles of Hawaii, Southeast Asia, Mexico and Central America.

Live music and visual performances include video projections featuring world renowned visionary painters Stevon Lucero, Martina Hoffmann, Robert Venosa and Adam Fu. Their mystic visionary art comes to life when projected on the movement of “living video sculptures.”

Inspired by personal voyages leading to direct encounters with global music and dance, performances by Lunar Fire pay homage to the ancestors and future generations of urban and ethnic cultures worldwide. Aiming to uplift and inspire positive action among the communities they visit, the Lunar Fire Collective often creates benefits to support women, children, the arts, arts education, sustainability projects and open media sources around the world.

“Lunar Fire Rocked... If you see them playing, run, don't walk to get tickets. They never disappoint.” ~ Robin Wren, Herbs & Arts, 5/11/10

"When Lunar Fire took the stage at Wisteria… I was not prepared to be totally blown away…The perfomance of Lunar Fire is shamanic. They take you to another world. They take your mind swirling off into the lights of the fire and the depths of their music and tribal rhythms… The music, the rhythm, the whole essence of the experience is intoxicating." Paula Jean West, Pagan Travel Examiner, 2009

“Completely blew my mind... a surreal, spiritual and profound experience.” ~ Amber Taufen, Denver Westword, 3/10/10

"Dancing, dancing and more dancing." Denver Westword, 5 July 2012

Here's an update about the music we are looking for.

History learns people have always seen us as ambassadors of quality electronic music regardless the genres we touch. Over the years music has evolved, so did our musical taste, a combination which is pushing us to think more forward.

In order to focus on what we really want to do and giving artists what they deserve, it's become necessary to discontinue some of our labels. Most of these labels are part of that trance scene which we helped develop in the early 90's. The trance scene of today does not fit our vision, so we will fully focus our 3 remaining trance labels (Subtraxx, Camouflage & Nemesis) on quality progressive trance.

You will wonder now what we really want to focus on, well deep progressive, mini tech, tech house and real progressive house as we have been doing in our own way over the past year on Bonzai Progressive, Bonzai Basiks, ...

We invite you all on this new and exciting journey…

So now you know what kind of music we are looking for! Send it here or contact http://soundcloud.com/fly or http://soundcloud.com/marnikbonzai
