SUMMARY:The Future of Our Food
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of sharing stories directly from the teachers\, parents\, and students impacted from their involvement in the Farm Education Program offered by Growing Young Farmers Society (GYFS). \nGYFS brings organic farming education right into school gardens all around Victoria and the Capital Region to rekindle organic farm knowledge in the youth of today and increase the number of farmers and available local organic food in our region. \nFarm Education in schools is playing a critical role in building long term food security and food quality for the present and future of Southern Vancouver Island. With a dwindling of local farming in recent generations\, come learn how your school can become part of this program that has so many benefits far beyond the act of farming. \nJoshua Wagler of Edible Landscapes Design\, a local edible landscaping design firm who works closely with Growing Young Farmers\, will be our host\, guiding our evening through the powerful stories of food and farm education. \nDoors open at 6 pm\nLIVESTREAM starts at 6:30 pm. \nABOUT OUR HOST\, JOSHUA WAGLER: \nJoshua is passionate about bringing the wisdom of Nature into human development. He has travelled the world studying Globalization and Sustainability of Cities\, and graduated with an Urban Studies Degree from the University of Calgary in 2010. Upon returning to Canada\, he began seeking practical solutions to the challenges he witnessed in the mega-cities of Pacific Asia. \nThis quest lead him on a solo pilgrimage into the Rocky Mountains\, and eventually back into the city\, where he began studying permaculture design\, food forestry\, and urban placemaking. Here he learned and worked alongside experts in these fields\, including Mark Lakeman\, Richard Walker\, Javan Bernakevitch\, and Brandon Bauer. Upon completing a business development course with Ethos Career Management Group\, he spearheaded the corporate launch of Edible Landscapes Design Ltd with Nick Poeta and Marc DeMontigny. \nSince then he has co-created numerous edible forest gardens\, workshops\, and educational events. He thrives in teaching\, sharing the magic of food forestry\, artistic design\, and bridging the needs of diverse interest groups. Along with sitting on the board of the business as President & VP Marketing\, Joshua acts as one the firm’s main Edible Landscape Designers and Consultants. \nTWO WAYS TO JOIN US! \nHOSTED LIVE AT SUNSET LABS!:\nIn Victoria and want to join us in person?

We combine theoretical teaching in the classroom\, with hands on practical learning in gardens located on school grounds or nearby. Our program emphasizes the importance of local\, organic\, sustainable food sources and teaches children and youth how to grow healthy produce – and encourages them to share their knowledge with their families and community. In addition to our in-school program\, GYFS also runs summer camps! \nWHY WE DO IT\nThe lessons we teach address a variety of issues concerning all of us today. As parents\, we talk about healthy eating to our children\, but do they really understand what that even means? By introducing them to growing food\, they are more aware of what they are consuming\, where it is coming from\, and how it is impacting the environment. By learning how to grow food\, students can also play an active role in increasing our island’s sustainability and decreasing our dependence on imported food sources. \nFor more information about Growing Young Farmer Society\, check out their website:\nhttp://www.growingyoungfarmers.ca/ \nABOUT THE 2020 VISION PROJECT:\n20 local non-profits. 20 broadcasts. 20 months.1 gift. \n2020 Vision is a Stream of Consciousness grant program designed to amplify & forward the deep work being done by the non-profit & charities right here in our hometown of Victoria. \n“We are gifting 20 live broadcast events\, over 20 months\, to 20 local community-based organizations in order to help them reach more people\, scale their message\, capture some beautiful video\, host an event\, and build an expanded awareness of the cause they champion! 2020 Vision is our way of saying THANK YOU for all that you’re doing to make the world a more beautiful\, just\, compassionate\, balanced and sustainable world.” \nFor more details on the program\, visit:\nhttps://streamofconsciousness.ca/2020-vision/

SUMMARY:The Conscious Classroom
DESCRIPTION:LIVE 3-HOUR WORKSHOP & BOOK LAUNCH\nHave you felt despair about the teen experience and the state of our schools today?\nDo you wish you knew tools that help teens flower and access their innate curiosity and wisdom?\nAre you ready to learn time-honored techniques that open the heart and make space for the good\, the bad\, and the uncertain? \nWORKSHOP OVERVIEW\nIn this live-streamed training\, Amy Edelstein will take you into the wisdom of her new release The Conscious Classroom. You will learn about a system that has been empowering 4000 teens in the inner city of Philadelphia to calm\, focus\, connect\, and access their deeper intelligence and trust in life. \nToday’s teens face many challenges. Some are familiar. We may remember the tumult of adolescence. But other challenges are new. Our digitized\, globalized world creates pressures for kids that were non-existent even a few short decades ago. \nOut-dated school systems find it hard to keep pace with the times. They don’t have the flexibility to prepare students for a workforce that is rapidly changing. They don’t have time to support kids consumed by anxiety or the memory of trauma. Teachers find themselves faced with classroom challenges they have little training for and even less time to respond to. Sadly\, our kids are experiencing rates of depression and anxiety\, stress and trauma that are rising at an alarming pace. \nBut this workshop is not about problems.\nThis evening is about solutions. \nSolutions that have been tested\, measured\, and demonstrated in the experience of high school students. \nThe Conscious Classroom is an approach\, perspective\, and program that helps us work with reality as it is and improve It is about low-cost\, high-impact tools that have already been making a real difference among 4000 high school students in Philadelphia. \nWhen youth light up with the discovery that they can dial back negative emotions\, that they can hack fear and go beyond self-imposed limitations\, a rush of energy is released that can’t be put back in the bottle. This energy is the passion of youth and the thirst for life. \nIn some teens it is a quiet knowing. In others it’s a shy smile of self-achievement. And for others it is a vulnerability that is as strong as it is soft. As confident as it is loving. When we as parents\, educators\, or mentors witness this transformation\, we feel uplifted. We feel that the future is bright. \nThe Inner Strength System™ empowers teens with the lifelong skills of mindfulness and systemic thinking. As teens learn to calm and focus they are more able to stay on track to realize their academic and personal goals. As they learn how to see their experience in light of the large-scale forces that influence them from within and without – from 300 million years of brain development to 50\,000 years of cultural conditioning – they become fascinated\, rather than overwhelmed\, by their experience. \nIN THIS TRAINING\nIn this live webcast training you will learn some tools that you can practice with your own teens or begin to incorporate into work you already do as a parent\, teacher\, employer\, or guide. You will:\n> Be inspired by the real life successes and stories of teens.\n> Learn foundational mindfulness tools you can use with your teens & for your own stress-relief.\n> Discover the science behind why educating for well-being leads to better academic outcomes and better brain health.\n> Practice exercises that cultivate Love & Kindness. \nAVAILABLE VIA LIVESTREAM\nNot in Victoria? Or just have your hands full and can’t join us?\nWatch the whole event online via Stream of Consciousness livestream. You can connect with other viewers\, respond to polls\, and ask questions of the speakers! Details and registration are here:\nhttps://streamofconsciousness.ca/event/amy-edelstein-conscious-classroom/ \nABOUT AMY EDELSTEIN\nAmy Edelstein\, educator\, author\, and public speaker is a powerful communicator of ideas and beliefs that can help us transform ourselves and the culture we live in. She began her own mindfulness practice in 1978 and spent the next few decades in indepth exploration of contemplative and developmental philosophies and facilitating workshops around the world. In 2014\, Amy established the Inner Strength Foundation to support inner city youth with the tools of mindfulness and systemic thinking. Over 4000 teens in the Philadelphia public high school system have benefited from the 3-month training.

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!

Before the Flood\, presented by National Geographic\, features Leonardo DiCaprio on a journey as a United Nations Messenger of Peace\, traveling to five continents and the Arctic to witness climate change firsthand. He goes on expeditions with scientists uncovering the reality of climate change and meets with political leaders fighting against inaction. He also discovers a calculated disinformation campaign orchestrated by powerful special interests working to confuse the public about the urgency of the growing climate crisis. With unprecedented access to thought leaders around the world\, DiCaprio searches for hope in a rising tide of catastrophic news. \nFrom Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Fisher Stevens and Academy Award®-winning actor\, environmental activist and U.N. Messenger of Peace Leonardo DiCaprio\, Before the Flood presents a riveting account of the dramatic changes now occurring around the world due to climate change\, as well as the actions we as individuals and as a society can take to prevent the disruption of life on our planet. Beyond the steps we can take as individuals\, the film urges viewers to push their elected officials in supporting the use of alternative energy sources such as solar and wind power. “We need everyone to demand bold action from their political leaders and to elect representatives who have their best interests at heart\, not the interests of corporations to perpetuate a cycle of greed and destruction\,” says DiCaprio. “This documentary shows how interconnected the fate of all humanity is — but also the power we all possess as individuals to build a better future for our planet.” \nBefore the Flood premieres in theaters on October 21st and will air globally on the National Geographic Channel on October 30th in 171 countries and 45 languages. The film is directed by Fisher Stevens and produced by Leonardo DiCaprio\, Fisher Stevens\, Jennifer Davisson and Trevor Davidoski with Brett Ratner and James Packer of RatPac Entertainment. It was written by Mark Monroe and Executive Produced by Martin Scorsese\, Adam Bardach\, Mark Monroe\, and Zara Duffy. The film is edited by Geoffrey Richman A.C.E.\, Ben Sozanski\, Abhay Sofsky\, and Brett Banks. The Director of Photography is Antonio Rossi. The Executive Music Producers are Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross with original music by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross\, Mogwai and Gustavo Santaolalla. \nThe carbon emissions from Before The Flood were offset through a voluntary carbon tax.

The most recent such assembly of Tribes occurred when the Great Sioux Nation gathered before the Battle at the Little Big Horn. \nThe Standing Rock Sioux Tribe supports the peaceful and prayerful message of the Oceti Sakowin leaders and desires to assist with options for the Camp before winter sets in. The on-reservation camp will allow the tribe to explore and pursue considerations for a camp and longer term ways to meet the needs of the community that is 100% off-the-grid\, featuring Solar & Wind power generation. \nTHE DETAILS:\n—————————————————–\n7pm-9pm | all ages\n3 price options: $10\, $20 or $30 per person – you pick\npaypal or etransfer to: payments@sunsetlabs.ca (answer to the e-transfer question: standingrock (all one word)) \nall proceeds going to Standing Rock Sioux Tribe\nhttp://standingrock.org/ \nLimited Seating –\ndo please book your tickets to ensure seats.\nDoor tickets might be available –\nwe’ll update here on this page as we know more. \nConcession will be open –\ntea\, drinks\, water\, treats. \n♥

Discover an inner strength you did not know you have and the ability to laugh in the face of your greatest fears. \nSo much of the fear and hesitation in life comes not from the self\, but from fretting about what others may think\, what they will say\, or whom they might share it with afterwards. This can rob you of being able to enjoy the moment. Another set of fears come from passed-down beliefs that we accept without questioning them. \nWhat if you could make decisions and follow your heart…follow your body and your desires without worrying about what others thought? What if you were fearless in relating – first\, to yourself and then\, to others? \nCome join us for a unique day of exploration around such topics as: \n\nHow do we establish boundaries and create safe space for ourselves to explore with others?\n\nShifting paradigms from blame\, shame\, guilt & judgement\, to love\, acceptance\, understanding and presence.\n\nFactors that promote or inhibit intimacy:\nThe power of no and boundary (understand why your “no” says more about you than your “yes”)\n\n\nIn this workshop you will learn\, play\, and practice \n\nTo ask for what you want\, skillfully\, without attachment to the response.\n\nTo honor\, respect\, and be grateful for the answer “no”\, and still be hopeful for the answer “yes”.\n\nTo be honest and vulnerable about your wants and desires without shame\, without deflection\, without armor.\n\nTo hold space for someone who has not yet learned these skills.\n\nTo own your fears\, instead of them owning you.\n\nTo not be afraid to be the one who loves you the most\n\nTo learn to be even more vulnerable when you want to isolate or close down.\n\nRelease shame and haunting memories\n\nModalities of communication: verbal and non verbal\n\nWhen you understand who you truly are\, the need to compare yourself to another\, envy\, the urge to impress\, to BE different than you are all dissolve. In the beauty\, wonder\, and awe in discovering how magnificent “your” puzzle pieces fit together\, the ever changing infinite ways YOU shift\, dance\, together\, each one so unique\, so extraordinary. It could take an entire lifetime to only just begin to discover. Yet so often we abandon the quest of self discovery\, to follow another\, or to invest in relationships\, doing what we have been told is the “right” way to be. The greatest freedom that we could ever express or imagine\, is by simply giving ourselves permission to gently keep returning to us. We can transform the world by simply being 100% ourselves. \nCome with an open heart and a willingness\, a longing\, to bring your stories into the light\, so that they can stop you running away from your shadow. \nAll activities and exercises will be guided and are always optional. You can participate in the workshop solo\, with a partner and in small groups. All participants are asked to practice with each other\, or by oneself\, in whatever manner supports you best. Many options will be offered to support each individual experience. \nSet your sights on registering for this breakthrough intensive\, and get a two for the price of one deal by paying only what it ordinarily costs to learn from just one of these facilitators. \nThis will be a very special class for us! This will be the first time where our workshop will be avaiable live streaming on the web.

SUMMARY:Time is Art : Synchronicity and the Collective Dream : Film & Talk
DESCRIPTION:BLOOM VICTORIA presents: TIME IS ART : Synchronicity and the Collective Dream \nBloom Victoria is delighted to present the Canadian Premiere of TIME IS ART. This documentary explores synchronicity as a portal to a new reality; perhaps we can tap into a way of being that is not ruled by a finite sense of time\, but rather by the ability to live in harmony with the true creative nature of our existence. We will be joined by intuitive healer PENELOPE HAGAN of PENELOPE’S SPIRITUAL SERVICES\, who will discuss cultivating\, working with and grounding in synchronicity.  \nSYNOPSIS\nThe documentary film follows Jennifer\, a writer who is compelled to make sense of the mysterious and powerful energy she felt at her aunt’s deathbed. A series of strange coincidences leads her on an exploration of synchronicity – the concept that everything is interconnected\, and that time is not so much a chronology as it is an infinite cycle. Considering herself something of a skeptic\, she treads the fine line between nervous breakdown and ecstatic revelation as she seeks out guides in her search for answers. Together\, they explore a reality where time is transformed from a unit that can be measured and commodified -“Time is money”- to an experience of oneness with the natural rhythms of nature and the universe. It is here that the writer discovers that time is\, in fact\, art.  \n“Time is Art” is ultimately the story of an artist’s search for inspiration in a money-driven society that shuns creativity\, and of the human search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world. Presented as a cinematic meditation along the lines of Waking Life and Samsara\, this film takes an experimental approach that allows us to experience reality as Jennifer begins to see it – one less concerned with linear storytelling\, and more open to the cyclical patterns of nature\, the hidden meanings of symbols\, and the dreamlike overlapping of people\, places\, and moments. \nCompelling conversations with fellow seekers Toko-Pa Turner\, Richard Tarnas\, Amy Lansky\, Graham Hancock\, Daniel Pinchbeck and Rupert Sheldrake as well as artists and activists guide us through the underlying premise of the film: perhaps we can tap into a way of being that is not ruled by a finite sense of time\, but rather by the ability to live in harmony with the true creative nature of our existence.\nInspired by acclaimed & visionary author José Argüelles’ studies in ancient indigenous wisdom\, this film explores the idea that modern humanity is immersed in an erroneous and artificial perception of time that deviates from the natural order of the universe. We have become disconnected from the natural rhythms of the earth by focusing only on money\, consumerism and exploitation while deep down inside\, we crave the return to a foundation of culture\, community\, and creation.\nAs Jennifer navigates the labyrinth of her own light and darkness\, she opens herself to a new reality in which everyone and everything appear connected by a larger purpose. She is revealed to be part of a global movement of people challenging a linear and restrictive consciousness in exchange for one grounded in meaningful connection and action – a template for a new era where we are one with the earth and each other. \nBLOOM VICTORIA is one of 30 bioregional chapters of the Bloom Network. Our mission is to accelerate the spread of regenerative culture. Our vision is a world where people can easily share their passions and resources\, resolve conflict\, and live creatively in balance with nature. We were previously known as Evolver.  \nhttp://thesyncmovie.com\nhttp://lonepeep.com\nhttp://www.bloomnetwork.org \nTICKETS \n-Early Bird: $10 – *must* be purchased in advance via PayPal or e-transfer to bloomvictoriabc@gmail.com by 11:11 am on Weds.\, Sept. 21st! \n-At the door: sliding scale $15-20 – or pay what you can if you are low income \nTetlas accepted.

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.
