SUMMARY:Noah Pred [Berlin] at Sunset Labs
DESCRIPTION:Victoria welcomes back from Berlin… NOAH PRED!!\nw/ Rowan\, Nick Karma\, and Gano\nFriday\, July 5th\, 2019 | 9 pm – 2 am\n@ Sunset Labs | 400 Herald Street\, Victoria\n19+\, cash bar \nAdvance tickets on-sale now: $15\nPurchase tickets on Eventbrite\nTickets at door: $20 (if available) \nBrought to you by Sublime Productions and the Left Coast Crew \n————————— \n NOAH PRED\nBiologic / Compute / False Image \nCoaxing nuanced expression from analog machines and digital possibilities alike\, Noah Pred has been envisioning the future through electronic music for over twenty years – yet the story of this accomplished producer and DJ continues to unfold. Reinterpreting his signature production style anew\, 2018 saw the release of two full-lengths charting the territories between deep space experimentalism\, intricate polyrhythms\, delicate soundscapes\, evocative acid\, and hypnotic dub elements. \nThe breadth of Noah’s sonic worldview can most easily be accessed through his monthly two-hour podcast\, IFS. Each episode reveals the depth of his technical approach\, the sensibility of a seasoned selector\, and the pedigree of a late-night veteran. A two-time Juno Award nominee in his native Canada\, a music educator and technologist in his adopted hometown Berlin\, an alum of Cynosure\, Highgrade\, and Trapez LTD\, and founder of the acclaimed Thoughtless imprint\, Noah is also a DJ whose past residencies at Stereobar in Montreal and Fukhouse in Toronto helped lay the framework for his dynamic yet fluid sets that continue to resonate with diverse communities. \nA notable newcomer in Canada’s underground scene of the early 2000s\, Pred’s distinctive production style earned him a place among his peers with releases on Immigrant\, Intrinsic Design\, and Consigned Recordings. Driven by the fuel that fired up Thoughtless\, Noah relocated to Berlin in 2011\, where his creative horizons continued to expand via collaborative projects with Tom Clark as False Image on Get Physical\, with Pablo Bolivar on Apparel and Biotop\, with Tim Xavier on Alphahouse\, and with Deepchild as Concubine. \nBetween his recent solo EPs for Traumraum\, Compute\, and Biotop\, his vivid sets of techno\, house\, and electro\, the advanced sound design of his haunting atmospherics\, and the ever-evolving scope of his technical capabilities\, Noah’s commitment to electronic innovation remains as strong as ever – and in the face of global uncertainty\, his utopian sonic narratives have never felt so vital. \nhttp://noahpred.com/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/noahpred.official\nhttps://soundcloud.com/noahpred \n————————— \nROWAN \nSublime Productions \nRowan has been DJing and promoting events in BC for over a decade sharing the stage with mainstay festival acts like Adham Shaikh\, Gaudi\, Liquid Stranger\, Ganga Giri\, Delhi 2 Dublin\, Bluetech\, Saqi\, Desert Dwellers\, David Starfire\, Drumspyder\, Random Rab and more.

This is what he is lovingly pulled towards\, a\ngain and again. \nhttps://www.mixcloud.com/rowansentesy/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/djrowansentesy/ \n————————— \nNICK KARMA\nLeft Coast Crew \nIt all got started at the turn of the century. The first pair of tech 12’s\, and mixer then flash forward to moving west to Victoria BC on Vancouver Island in 2003.\nPlayed drums in a local rock band\, and started DJ’ing a few parties here\, and there quickly flourished into loads of friends with like minded hobbies\, a residency\, and playing along side of some of the who’s who of the electronic scene on the Island. Still Crafting his sounds he forges into the future with a constant love for the rhythms of planet Earth. Especially the deep\, funky\, groovy\, and obscure. \nhttps://www.mixcloud.com/Nick_Karma/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/djnickkarma/\nhttps://soundcloud.com/nick-karma \n————————— \nGANO \nLeft Coast Crew \nGano’s sound flows from the hypnotic to the melodic. The organic to electronic. Big\, bold bass drives a steady groove. And the funk is real.\nFor him\, it’s an obsession. After decades in the house and techno scene\, playing festivals\, clubs and house parties from San Francisco to B.C.\, Gano’s hunger is greater than ever. He spends every waking hour hunting\, jamming\, dancing\, and spreading the love. \nhttps://soundcloud.com/gano\nhttps://www.facebook.com/DJMikeGano/\nhttps://www.instagram.com/mikegano/ \n————————— \nMORE INFO \nLike the Left Coast Crew page to hear about future events:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/leftcoastcrew/ \nJoin the Sublime Productions newsletter:\nhttps://confirmsubscription.com/h/r/CA8D7845B6F9BF00

SUMMARY:Darkest Night: Dancing In Our Shadows
DESCRIPTION:  \nSHADOW AND LIGHT SOURCE BOTH\nby Rumi \nHow does a part of the world leave the world?\nHow does wetness leave water?\nDon’t try to put out fire by throwing on more fire!\nDon’t wash a wound with blood.\nNo matter how fast you run\, your shadow keeps up.\nSometimes it’s in front!\nOnly full overhead sun diminishes your shadow. \nBut that shadow has been serving you.\nWhat hurts you\, blesses you.\nDarkness is your candle.\nYour boundaries are your quest.\nI could explain this\,\nbut it will break the glass cover on your heart\,\nand there’s no fixing that. \nYou must have shadow and light -source both.\nListen\, and lay your head under the tree of awe.\nWhen from that tree feathers and wings sprout on you\,\nbe quieter than a dove.\nDon’t even open your mouth for even a coo.\n \n  \nDARKEST NIGHT: Dancing In Our Shadows\n*please note details below re arrival times & agreements \nWelcome to ‘Darkest Night’\, our winter solstice celebration & ceremony! To you we bid welcome\, fellow human… frail & tender & bruised from a life well-traveled… hopeful yet resigned\, empowered yet diminished\, loving yet fearful. While our shadows are ever-present\, we live in an agreement reality wherein recognizing\, owning and dancing with our shadow is something we’re often left to do alone\, without support\, without witness. \nThis night we gather to spend the darkest night of the year together\, in communion\, in ceremony\, in reflection\, in reverence and in dance. As light or heavy as it may be\, come with an open heart\, and bring what shadows may persist… that we may do some deep work together to navigate the collective unspoken depths\, as we begin the long beautiful transition from the darkness… back into the light. \n  \nCOMMUNITY POTLUCK\nWe’ll open the doors at 6pm sharp and commune together until 7:30\, when we’ll begin to transition ourselves – and our space – towards the ceremony and evening. If you’re able to do so\, please bring 1 item that will feel good to make\, feel good to eat\, and feel good in our bellies as we dance later into the evening. Please LABEL your items & ingredients clearly so that everyone can make informed decisions on their meal. \nTo ensure the container is powerfully set for our evening\, during the opening ceremony new guests will not be welcomed into the space. SO – please arrive before 7:45pm OR after 8:15pm. (Ideally – come around 6pm to join us for the meal and connect with your community!) \n  \nOPENING | GUIDED REFLECTIONS (DYADS)\nJason Guille & Alex King-Harris\n* bring a journal & a cushion to sit on 🙂 \nAfter opening the circle and setting the container together\, we’ll get cozy for the thinking/reflecting/sharing part of our evening. Jason & Alex will offer you a series of questions to prompt personal reflections on the year that’s past\, and participants will be paired up together for solo journalling and then\, if & as you feel called\, to share your observations\, reflections and experiences. This will be a time not of coaching or advice\, but rather of deep reflection & LISTENING. \nWe’ll move through a series of guided explorations around our habits\, resentments\, stuckness\, wants\, relationships and incompletions. Here we’ll build a powerful bridge from the mind & the past… into the body & the present. \n  \nGUIDED CACAO CEREMONY\nOcian Flo & Jazmin Love \nCacao is considered to be a healing plant for inner growth. It is a very gentle and non psychedelic supporter that allows to open the heart to reconnect to our inner wisdom and true self. Cacao helps\, unlike other substances\, to do the shadow work from the heart instead of the brain. \nCacao is like the archetypal mother that gives you love and compassion\, that nourishes and nurtures you and gently supports you on your personal growth and your path to wholeness. She opens the door but you need to walk through. \n  \nDARKEST NIGHT DANCE TEMPLE\nJazmin Love\, Dance Temple Victoria \nThe ecstatic dance journey is a free-style movement experience featuring juicy\, soulful beats by Jaz to inspire deep and wild embodiment. The invitation is to dance with your shadows and to move from the inside out\, while remaining non-verbal\, as a way of deepening into the journey. Sounding is welcome. This is a safe\, sacred space for you to embody and express your whole self. \nJazmin Love is a co-founder and facilitator of Dance Temple Victoria. She has been facilitating ecstatic dance journeys for four years and is passionate about embodied movement as a means of awakening\, transformation and authentic expression. She has a lifelong background in dance and is inspired by creating sacred space and designing music sets for unleashing the wild within. \n  \nSOUNDSEED MEDICINE JOURNEY\nOcian Flo\, SoundSeed Medicine Journeys\nft Alex King-Harris (Rara Avis) \nSoundSeed Medicine Music can be described as a shamanic journey. Laying down\, participants can go into a deep almost a trance-like state. Ocian guides participants into the breath\, the body\, and the mind to create a safe container for us all to work with the sound as therapy or medicine. This is a practice of witnessing and listening deeply to how your body\, both physical and energetic and your mind\, both emotional and mental\, responds to the different sounds during the session. \nAs a sound practitioner since 2010\, Ocian gracefully weaves in a plethora of modalities to create one-of-a-kind experiences\, every time. Ocian is a visionary\, an intuitive\, a spiritual teacher and coach\, using frequency and vibration to harmonize the body\, mind and soul. These sessions include Crystal Bowls\, Crystal Lyre\, Crystal didjeridu\, Zaphir and Koshi Chimes\, Rattles\, drum and others\, along with her etheric and powerful voice. As she works\, Ocian can hear\, feel and sometimes see the underlying vibrational and energetic patterns held within the body or group energy field. She uses this clairaudience to offer an awareness of these patterns\, with a reminder of the power of our personal beliefs\, stories\, and most importantly\, our own ability to be the catalyst for our own repatterning. This work offers each person the potential and the power of self-healing and self-awareness. \nOcian will be initially joined by Alex King-Harris\, who has spent the past 20 years training himself to listen deeply. The result of this practice is that when he is in a room filled with magical beings who are also willing to listen deeply\, improvised songs can come through direct from the Great Mystery. They’re unprepared\, raw\, unfiltered and depending on the setting\, transformative. Alex’s intention at this event is to make himself available to this Cosmic Muse and hopefully make something happen that speaks to the hearts\, bodies and minds of those gathered. \n  \nAGREEMENTS & NOTES\nCOME FOR THE EVENING: To ensure the container is powerfully set for our evening\, during the opening ceremony new guests will not be welcomed into the space. SO – please arrive before 7:45pm and plan to be with us for the evening. If it’s really not possible to do so\, we will welcome latecomers 8:15pm-9:00pm and THEN WILL BE CLOSING THE DOORS. No entires will be allowed after 9pm. For the best group experience possible\, do try to come for dinner if it works – and please arrive before 7:45pm if at all possible. \nCONFIDENTIALITY: This gathering is intended to allow us to do some of our shadow work together\, in a safe container. Some of us may move through various emotional spaces\, or share personal stories not intended for the world at large. What happens here\, stays here\, and by attending you are agreeing to this principle of honouring each other through confidentiality. \n  \nDETAILS & FLOW OF OUR NIGHT\n6-8pm :: Potluck Dinner – connection & communion\n8-9pm :: Opening & Orientation – Guided Dyads & Reflections\n9-10pm :: Community Cacao Ceremony\n10-11:15pm :: Darkest Night Dance Temple\n11:15-12 :: Soundseed Medicine Journey\n12am :: BLESSINGS & CLOSE \nhosted at Sunset Labs\nbottom of Herald St behind Value Village\nrequested donation $10-$20 (includes your cacao)\n(nobody turned away for lack of funds)\nthis event is drug & alcohol free \nblessings!

He contributes to Canadas electronic music community by producing\, DJing\, promoting and teaching electronic music production. \nSergio got his start in dance music in Calgary\, Alberta. Under the moniker Piranha Piranha he collaborated with long time friend and business partner Dan Solo\, producing music and initiating the forward-thinking brand therinseout. They contributed to the growing foundation of the west coast underground scene by championing weekly parties as well as other one-offs and experimental events. Modern Math\, which started as a weekly night between 2009-2011\, was a catalyst to a particularly lively period in Calgary’s musical upbringing\, and has since morphed into a series of events\, record releases and short run prints\, curated by Dan and Sandro in collaboration.Another long-running event was Northern Lights\, which happened every Wednesday for 4 1/2 years at Calgarys premier dance spot\, The HiFi Club. The night was responsible for showcasing a deeper\, more progressive side of dance music\, and introducing taste-making local and international artists to a developing city. \nSergio continues to push his sound and production ability into new territory\, collaborating with a growing league of producers representing the international landscape. His DJ sets quite often range in flavour but mostly waver in the house and techno realm with a lean towards tracked-out\, low end sounds. His solo productions are heavily inspired by dub techno legends and loop based producers\, and range from dance floor centric tracks to deep ambient textures. His reputation as a selector and live performer have allowed him to perform alongside some of the cultures most influential characters\, as well as won him prime time bookings at festivals such as Bass Coast and Shambhala. \nSergio has stepped into new realms of creativity with a move to Toronto in early 2015. He has since participated in Red Bull Music Academys noted Bass Camp\, and continues to evolve and grow as an artist throughout various creative explorations.\n~\nsergiolevels.com\nsoundcloud.com/sergiolevels\nfacebook.com/sergiolevels\ninstagram.com/sergiolevels \nWith: \nMATSYA\nSalt Spring\n~\nsoundcloud.com/matsya\nmixcloud.com/matsya/ \nEN NOIR (Sub|Division)\nVictoria\n~\nfacebook.com/En.Noirr\nsoundcloud.com/en_noir \nARKTIC (Urban Therapy | Northern Circle)\nVictoria\n~\nfacebook.com/arkticmusic\nsoundcloud.com/arkticmusic\nmixcloud.com/arkticmusic \nAnd visuals by: \nEmp Interactions\nVictoria \nOver the past three years\, EMP Interactions has had the opportunity to develop their artistic and technological capacity into a unique fusion of traditional stage construction and digitally generated visual material.
