Stavros Xarhakos – Ena Proino (Othon Edit)

There are some songs that unconsciously become part of one’s musical DNA.. songs that accompany one’s childhood. This is one of them. I was a melancholy kid that loved melancholy music and this old Greek song from an old Greek film always struck a chord.
I love creating edits & remixes of tracks that though don’t fit in with many of today’s dance music conventions, I can still play them in my sets in these unique magical moments when it feels right. This edit is one of them and a little solstice & Xmas gift to you. Post a comment on the track on Soundcloud & let me know if you want me to send you directly the track in .wav or 320mp3 format ✨

Conscious Journeys #5: Othon

✬ A talismanic mixtape for private visionary ceremonies ✬
When I was recording this mixtape for our Conscious Expansion channel on Sunday, my little heart-cup overflowed with so much love that I cried of pure shivering bliss. The opportunity for me to create this Journey for you was simply too much of a blessing to bear!
Though it can be listened to at any time, this Conscious Journey, will unleash its full magical potential if it is used as an accompaniment and guidance during your own private visionary ceremonies… It is a talisman for these solitary or shared soul-sailing trips saved for those special occasions 😉🌵🍄

Giving Tree Festival DJ Set, 1 September

There is a brand new eco/electronic/science/performance festival called The Giving Tree Festival happening this weekend, outside London, and just recently, I was invited to play!

For those of you that miss the open-air trance and psy trance parties with cool chill out stages check this one out! I will be doing a shamanic electronica/deep/multiculti set on Sunday around 5.30pm. Tickets are £125 currently but I can get a few discounted ones – just let me know 😉

Here are a few words about the festival..

‘The Giving Tree Festival is a new and intimate gathering of electronic music, interactive performance art, engaging theatrical themes and flawless show design. Set in a beautiful open air location less than 1 hour drive from London, The Giving Tree Festival will be an eco-friendly fusion of technology and nature, that will create a cohesive life style giving respect and honoring the planet and our fellow humans.’

Othon AYA Remixes Vol. 1 no 8 on Beatport

We are no.8 on Beatport’s top Electronica Releases! 😁 I sometimes feel so insecure about the things I do… I am certainly not one that completes a project easily.. getting small confirmations like this just helps me be a little less strict towards myself and build more confidence.
Thank you for the love and support 🙏🏻
