Crystal 14 - White Rhythmic Drop

We mesmerize in order to love
Embracing euphony
Processing the seal of dance
With eccentric tones of rhythm
Guided by our own smiles doubled

We are all galactic sense nodes .. exciting each other

Dionysos - God of Intoxication

Dionysos - god of intoxication
chthonic dionysos
guide us in ecstatic craze
make us sing and dance

Dionysos (translated in latin as Bacchus)

son of Zeus and Semele;
god of intoxication, wild nature, fertility and mystery;
inspirer of good times, ritual madness and ecstasy;
accompanied by centaurs, ipotanes, maenads and satyrs;
frequently underestimated to merely be the god of wine.

In ancient Athens two festivals, named Dionysia and Lenaia,
were dedicated to Dionysus. Initiates worshipped him in the
Dionysian Mysteries, which may have been the precursor
of the Eleusinian Mysteries, Orphic Mysteries and Gnosticism.
Also the more recent movement of Christianity, with its
similar traits of resurrection and life after death, may have
some of its early roots in these rituals.

freakuently unanswered questions


? what is Satyr

! in ancient times, Satyr was the messenger of the Eleusinian forest god Dionysos. He stalked the youth of nearby villages and attracted them with the hypnotizing music of his magic flute.
After following him into the forest, the crowd was offered the brew of Dionysos, which made them fall into trance and perform the Rite ov Dance, rhythmatically reaching higher levels of joy, guided by the Divine Groove, powered by the omnipresent life energy of Gaia.

? where is Satyr

! in our common present, the forests are nearly extinct and Dionysos has grown shy and more careful where to share his brew. In these times, the spirit of Satyr inhabits the body of a human boy, born and raised in the concrete jungle of Amsterdam.

? does he still play flute

! the Panflute has become an artefact in captivity, held safe and sound in the archeological archive of the Vatican, never to hypnotize innocent adolescence again. Searching for a new way to spread the vibe of the forest, Satyr switched to SL and CDJ instruments, which fit the job quite nicely.

The chosen vibe for the Rite ov Dance is carried by Psychedelic Trance, a style of music that can raise enough hairs on a person's back to grow old Dionysos a brand new five foot beard. Yet to give both brain and feet a rest from the dance, Satyr has developed an equal skill to Chill Out.

Onward and outside Eleusis, Satyr played music whilst Dionysos stirred his brew in: Belgium, Brasil, Germany, Greece, Portugal, Slovakia, USA and all over the Netherlands; a few memorable events being:
VooV (germany), Universo Paralello (brasil), Dance Valley (nl), Q-Base (germany), Club A (brasil), Amsterdam Dance Event (nl), Wanted 13 (brasil), Senseblender (belgium), Amon Horus (belgium), Empathy (nl), 9 Lifes of Hofmann (nl), Children of the Fluo Forest (nl), Trance Buddha (nl), Pi club (berlin), Het Ballonnenfeest (nl), Burning Man (usa) and many more, in- and outdoor since 1995.*
