I'm on the last leg of my 6 mo. round the world trip and will be a month in India. Got in two days ago and Leaving Delhi for Dharmasala tomorrow (anybody want to get together?). And I've been fortunate to play out in Laos and Thailand so far on the trip and would love to at the very least connect with some dance scenes and communities while in India and would love to share my beats with them as well.

I'm sampling and being inspired by the sounds and music I encounter on my travels and fuse it all, through my little travel laptop, into my productions. I'm most interested in the dance tracks, dance scenes, and dance parties that encorporate healing, conscious, or social elements.

But I'll always settle for some great music and vibes to just get the sweat on. It doesn't matter what the party looks or sounds like though, of course, uniquely indian would be cool, whatever that means! (indian music, indian causes, indian location, indian dj's/musicians, expats of india, indian spirit/religious music, indians, indian hippies). And, "yes" I like Bhangra.

Many of my projects sample events of humanitatian interests like music from mine victims in Cambodia or hurricane relief in Fiji. I hope to get these tracks posted when I finish the trip in the coming months to then be posted to download for a donation to these various causes to raise funds and awareness. See here for some idea of what I mean:

So if you also know of any particular indian events or causes or cultural experiences I should creatively engage please let me know.

My dj music and even productions are mostly deep techy funky house breaks and lounge tossed about with some world beats and sprinkled with conscious dust. I know there's a healthy psy movements such as Goa and although i appreciate the sound and mind states it's not really my cuppa'. Anything else going on? Or else maybe I need convincing that the psy stuff is REALLY going on!

peace in the middle east,
