I don't think I have the words to fully explain how amazing the first edition of dyaṣphönic.dance was earlier this month! You'd think after organizing events for years I'd be less anxious, but no. It was my first solo event and my nerves were all over the place, but all was MORE than well! I really want to thank our DJs Bonita Appleblunt and Cobra B, our event sponsor Bayab Gin (those drinks were amazing and y'all knew it by the way you bought them OUT!), and lastly all of you who came and enjoyed the sounds of Dyaspara! You made my birthday celebration so special! We energized the Agave Den this go round, but in May we'll be lighting up the larger nightclub space so you'll have even more room to dance! If you missed the first one, don't fret: we're partying again Saturday, May 3! Make sure you reserve your free RSVP ticket in advance and bring a friend! We'll have Bayab Gin specials again (#MakeitAfrican) and DJs Zuni and Phreaky Bionick providing sounds alongside myself! I hope you're ready for a great time! I hope you enjoyed this newsletter.

It's surely been hard for me to celebrate with the constant violence and incompetence our current administration is inflicting on people in this country, but nonetheless I hope you're finding ways to remain grounded and...
Time flies huh? After a high-energy, supersonic party last month, dyaṣphönic.dance returns for another journey of sound this Saturday! If you've missed the first two, it's not too late to secure your spot at Dyaspara's sonic den! The DJs for our next party have unique energies that play deeply into sound AND story. I can't wait for you to hear and feel how these two artists' sets connect! Dyaspara is a cultural connector who lives to learn and reflect on the beauty, vastness, and...
Unless you've been living under a rock I'm sure you've seen an outpour of DJ sets on your TikTok, Instagram Reels feed and YouTube homepages at coffee shops, in living rooms, and every other place that is NOT a club. It, one, speaks to most people's frustrations with nightclubs + club culture: overpriced drinks, expensive sections, and everyone feeling a little bit too cool to move on the dancefloor. Secondly, I think, it's a #recessionindicator that forces event producers like myself to not...
