Disco Meditations 1

This weekend I went up to Upstate New York to participate in a Ayuasca Ceremony that was led by a Shaman from Putumayo, Colombia and organized by a friend of mine, Kathi who has travelled the world studying people's ways. Also participating in the healing ritual was an elder from Colombia, Taito Juan. The ritual took place in a beautiful old house on top of a gorge with a bunch of  really interesting people in attendance. One of them was Jim, aka DJ Small Change. He was going back early to do a gig at Studio 8 playing for a roller disco and was going to give me a ride back to NYC. As we were sitting in the sun by the beautiful waterfall that was right behind the house he mentioned that he might take a disco nap if he'd have enough time before his gig, after driving home. I heard myself ask, did u ever try to take a DiscoMeditation? We were both cracking up at the thought of it and decided to collaborate on a Project Album mixing disco beats with meditative music trying to see what it's worth.

Besides those plans I also decided to start a blog today, after returning to NY and after analyzing my 'interaction' with the plant. The plant let me know that I should pursue exactly the things I've always wanted to do , to not be afraid of letting my voice and music be heard. I will try to relate to you later how the plant has informed my thinking during the ceremony.

So in this blog I want to share my thoughts on music, spirituality, love, life , networking, and whatever else comes to mind as well as my riffing on live music in NYC and recordings that move me. Hopefully this blolg will document a journey as well as a life well lived, which is all I am aspiring to do at this point. I thank the Plant for giving me the power to recognize my responsibility to live my life truly independently in order to fully realize my potential to help, share and maybe even heal those around me. Intentions are powerful enough by themselves,if you throw in a little effort and focus, there is really no failings. only new beginnings. We know ALL the answers, but it's only when we are able to listen, that we can truly apply them. It is only after we apply them that we can go out and answer other seeker's questions without being asked. So in that spirit I would like everyone who ends up reading this blog to feel encouraged to share their opinions on my Ongoing BLAH, as I need to work on my listening skillz. I will try to write before heading out of the house to go hear music in NYC and/or after coming back home, in order to pay some tribute to the Blog's Origin's. till8tr
