SOLOMOON
(Metameme / Esoteric Gen / OneTribe – Denver)
www.metameme.orgMy world was completely transformed in 1993 when I fatefully discovered the global movement of trance-ambient music. I immediately recognized this music as a timeless language that transcended not only musical genres, but also cultures and the delicate timeline of humanity. I took up the art of dj-ing in 1994 as a way to spread this aural meta-cine and share with others in the rediscovery of the ancient trance-dance ritual. Traveling great distances around the globe, I have sought communion with other trance nomads in hopes of understanding and raising awareness to what can be collectively achieved through this archaic tradition of ceremonial dance. As this musical language speaks to me, I attempt to translate to others by combining intelligent melodies and modern innovation with primal rhythms while staying true to the organic, tribal, ethnic sounds of the global village. I see and use this artistic medium of sound as a spiritual path for transcendence.
