Friday Night Dance with DJ Shivani

Hello Dancers, 

I’m really excited that I have the opportunity to bring you my second set. My intention as the DJ this week is to create a container for the community that gives permission for the fullest expression of emotion.

In all my offerings, I welcome the embrace of what is present in the body; to notice it, to feel it, to invite lifeforce into it, and to surrender to the way in which it wishes to be moved through and out of you—be it a whoop of elation, the growl of rage, the hum of joy, or the weep of grief.

With surrender and release comes rapture; and it’s at times of rapture that we get to know who we truly are.

We begin gently with ambience and soft beats, lifting up the vibe with organica and afrohouse. We then find ourselves entering into what I call “bass as medicine,” a peak section with EDM, techno, psytrance, and DnB, where we can really shake and stomp out any stagnant energy. This is followed by a period of flow and celebration with world music, ending with a beautiful cello piece to rest and integrate.

The female voice is the thread of sound that carries us through this journey and through the emotions that she evokes. The feminine invites us into our beingness, into our sensual body, and into our expression. 

I look forward to seeing you on the dancefloor.
