Mose is based in Guatemala where cacao ceremonies and ecstatic dance have had a major influence on his productions and DJ style. It is here that he founded regular cacao dances where members of the community have the opportunity to journey deep into dance while held in a ceremonial container, free of alcohol.

Beyond the multicultural rhythms and the steady hypnotic beat, Mose weaves ephemeral chanting of sacred songs and calls to love, kindness and compassion, often bringing in live musicians to create something improvisational connected with that particular place and time. He creates with the intention to set a foundation for self discovery and the cultivation of a present minded state which offers new insights and deeper clarity in ones purpose.

“I play organic midtempo/downtempo steady beat music. For me, music is an opportunity to journey to deep spaces. Whenever I am producing or playing it is my intention to be taken, to let go into the depths. It is an ongoing practice in opening my channels as well as I can to let something more than myself flow through. The entrancing steady beat of the drum is something that has taken me to beautiful places within myself over and over again and my production process emulates this. I always remind myself that if I don’t “get high” from the music I am making, how could I ever expect anyone else to. For me, great music is that which opens these altered states of consciousness without taking any substance at all.”
