24.01.2022 I was inspired to write a track to play at the Temple Fantasy event. It turned out to be the remix of choice for Amber's light whip performance. This is the second Tantric House track released by Electric Forest. Free download on Mixcloud: #electriforest... #psyphi #tantrichouse https://www.mixcloud.com//temple-fantasy-amberdance-exten/

23.01.2022 New DJ set up .. six channels plus live analogue synth ~ Korg Minilogue ~ djay Pro iOS ~ Pioneer Nexus decks

22.01.2022 Looking into ultra-portable, lightweight DJ ensembles that integrate perfectly with syncable music libraries and provide pro-grade audio, FX packages and a built in user-editable pad operated sampler on an iOS platform I decided on Algoriddim's DJ Pro. Having explored the application for quite a while I wanted a lightweight, portable controller with a built in audio interface so the RELOOP MIXTOUR came onto my radar as a no-frills workhorse for a professional DJ using iOS as ...a performance platform. I have used and owned professional Pioneer decks and mixers for decades but they weigh a ton and they lack some of the tactile features that set the iOS option apart. An assignable X/Y effects pad that can be switched to manual or instantaneous options and a synchronised, programmable video mixer that can run simultaneously is something regular hardware mixers cannot offer. The system is stable, it sounds great on a Nexo PA and the hardware controller covers all essential DJ functions with two way pad functions such as PLAY, SYNC, LOOP and CUE switchable to multiple cue points plus master FX and high/low pass filter and track load/library navigation with a push-button rotary encoder. What I love is the portability and quality. I can mix anywhere there is a power supply without lugging around a 25Kg road case full of bulky gear.

21.01.2022 I feel compelled to share a story ... Prior to starting Electric Forest in 1993 I had been on a very interesting journey beginning with my introduction to the t...eachings of the Vajrayana Tibetan Tantra (Diamond Vehicle) in 1977. While travelling in India exploring consciousness, philosophy and the religious teachings of Eastern mystery schools in 1981 I was lucky enough to continue my studies auspiced by the student facility at the Tibetan monastery in Dharamsala. In tandem with the emergence of the so called 'rave' scene in the early 80's and subsequent visits to India around the time Goa trance synthesised miraculously on the Western Ghats and beaches of that quirky former Portuguese colony - a curious admixture of European Catholicism, indigenous animist religion and Hinduism out of which emerged one of the most extraordinary electronic music cultures that relied on a free-spirited hedonism that mirrored the anarchic psychedelic mindset of the 1960's. It gave birth to just as many gorgeous cultural Chimera as its precursor. The hippy vibe became somehow amplified, digitised and hybridised into a new paradigm that gained rapid momentum. Meanwhile the trajectory of Detroit House and Berlin Techno arced through their respective urban cultures, the free festival ethos and radical/rebel free party culture prevailed and was either crushed or tolerated depending on the state or country in question. Tantra entered the mainstream in its 'neo' form sexualised for the Western appetite for deconditioning programming around fear shame and guilt instilled by religious decree. Everyone seemed to be reconditioning their minds and values by rebelling against the status quo. Even the original practitioners rebelled against the dictates of Hinduism by engaging in the ritual consumption of meat and alcohol and prohibited sex with prostitutes in abandoned temples. Everybody was tasting the forbidden fruit whether it was psychedelic medicine or sacred sex. It was the taste of freedom and sovereign self-determination but all of it was taboo. What I experienced in India, especially on the beach in Goa in a delightful tiny fishing village called Harambol, was an emergent culture that very much relied on the two key elements of 'set' and 'setting' that developed out of psychedelic research in the 1960's. 'Set' being the state of mind that the subject was in and 'setting' being the environment in which one was intending to journey in. These two values were crucial in creating a incredibly special and rare harmonious environment adjacent to the ocean waterline where our ancestors first emerged and transformed into the amphibian progenitors of all land based life-forms. This location seemed significant especially since Dr. Timothy Leary likened the psychedelic revolution to that evolutionary process and declared it to be of equal if not greater significance to the development toward higher organised life-forms and consciousness. What I experienced through this nuanced agreement to keep the 'setting' and the 'set' of the participants in this quasi-amphibious neuro-evolutionary dance was the rarest form of human connection I had ever witnessed. I was so shocked and in awe of the sheer beauty of the human connection I witnessed and the wild, unfettered expression of the human spirit I was inspired to return to Australia and put all of my energy into finding the music, finding the people and recreating this magic that had transformed my perception and assumptions about how people can connect through dance and nature. A walk in the forest inspired me to create Electric Forest as away of drawing creative inspiration from nature to create music and dance events in harmony with the beat of the forest. That journey has taken so many twists and turns, involved so much human drama, revelry and insight, so many downloads and so much wisdom sharing and gathering yet throughout the multitudinous manifestations of wild gatherings fuelled by extraordinary synthesis of many modalities I saw golden thread running through all of it. A resonant golden harmonic axis running through space and time that represented the perfection of the connected human spirit I first witnessed on the beach in Goa. All and everything I have done has stayed as close to that axis as possible with varying degrees of success. Now we are near the cusp of 2020 and I see the maturation and integration of the modalities of Tantra, electronic music and sexuality in the modern Western milieu in the most unexpected ways. If someone said to me in Harambol in 1989, 'One day you will be organising consciousness raising events integrating conscious sexuality, conscious kink, Tantric practice and electronic music' I would have laughed. But here we are in the new millennium, almost a fifth of the way in, emerging into new paradigms of relating, creating and celebrating life that seems to echo the radical sensuality and hedonism of twenties and thirties of past centuries. Berlin Techno meets Tech House, mind expanding festivals have proliferated and there are more self-improvement workshops than there are days in the year. Conscious sexuality is the biggest thing since unconscious sexuality and for once in our history we have cast off the social and moral shackles of Bronze Age mind control experiments disguised as religion and finally found the courage to actually be seen and express ourselves with complete authenticity as sovereign beings with access to spiritual experience unmediated by a self-appointed governing authority at odds with our will to power. For me personally it is really exciting to be opening up to new domains of consciousness-expanding connection and exploring new modalities of bringing people together by integrating various disciplines that have resonated together in my life for a long time and to create a new paradigm for personal growth through a novel synthesis informed by years of rather unusual life experiences. Lastly, I have to say that this is my life's passion and my medicine .. the great gift.
