The Fest day evolves into a night of more live music and DJ sets for free-form conscious dance at the first ever EcstaticSoundz Concert & Ecstatic Dance with the debut performance of the SOUND SIRENS featuring the exotic percussions of April Centrone (founder 10PRL in Long Branch), the ethereal vocals of both Joy Okoye (JourneyDance) and Serenity Entity (Ascenzion). The Sound Sirens conclude with a Sound Journey following the Ecstatic Dance which highlights the spinning prowess of DJ and musician KAELLUM (Callum McQueen of Portland Oregon), and producer musician artist Paul Patterson of EARTH EPHECT. For those wondering what is Ecstatic Dance? It is a Family-Friendly ALL-ages Free-Form Conscious Dance event which has been around for several decades – influenced and inspired perhaps by Woodstock Festival of the 60s – dances are typically outdoors and barefoot – with musical global rhythms and bass inspiring and propelling participants towards mindful presence, joy, catharsis and eventually deep meditation. Ecstatic Dance is substance free – no alcohol, no drugs, no substances permitted.
