Each Māh Ze Tār set is uniquely dynamic – The listener can expect to hear the ancient sounds of the Sitar and Oud in one song and the timeless melodies of the Hulusi\, Ney and Duduk in the next – bringing a kaleidoscope of emotions through the wide plethora of ancient sounds\, mesmerizing vocals\, and grooving beats. Māh Ze Tār seeks to make familiar that which seems “other” through serving the sounds of distant lands on a platter of familiar body moving bass lines and thumping grooves. Māh Ze Tār was an active performing member of Balkan Bump for 3 years and hashad significant musical collaborations with Desert Dwellers\, David Starfire\, Jef Stott\, Morillo\, Akriza\, Nyrusand many others. Notable performances- Red Rocks\, Coachella\, Lightning in a Bottle\, Gem & Jam\, JoshuaTree\, Lucidity\, Symbiosis\, Oregon Eclipse\, Oregon Country Fair\, Haurkaze Tokyo Festival. \nHuman Being Behind the Project- \nMaz Karandish is a Devotee of music – a well traveled vocalist & multi-instrumentalist covering grounds from Rāga\, Maqām\, and Dastgāh to Harmony\, Jazz\, and Opera. Maz feels deeply connected to the ancient musical traditions of the east that he began learning at a very young age. As an Ethnomusicologist and a practicing Psychologist\, he has come to recognize that people in his generation have an easier time engaging with traditional music when it’s integrated with familiar rhythmic and sonic environments. Maz devotes his musical time to exploring the possible weaving of Indian\, Persian\, Greek and Turkish music with modern soundscapes. He is currently most interested in the integration of Indian Dhrupad and Persian Tahrir singing with electronic composition. \nLinks: \nWebsite :https://www.mahzetar.com \nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3t1vbZuEQhRqLTUKLraNDn \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mahzetar \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Mahzetar \nYoutube: https://youtube.com/@MazKarandishMusic?si=z3v74xz3_glrCntu \n \n \nPeace Sine \nPeace Sine is a music producer seeking to raise vibrations through soundscapes. A goal of the project is to bring people together through music and dance\, creating an environment that results in Love and Peace. \nPeace Sine began his musical journey in the eastern United States. After moving to California and feeling inspired by nature\, the sound of the project was able to fully transform into what we know it as today. \nOne of his wishes is to connect his audience to their inner bliss through his orchestration of textures\, rhythms\, and sound design. He hopes to inspire others to express themselves individually and collaboratively through all art forms. \n \n \nJämí \nJämi Deva is a treasured part of the Big Island Ecstatic Scene as both a leader and a performer. Often\, he can be found accompanying Sunday DJs at Kalani with live djembe. It’s always a journey of connection when Jämi is guiding our intentional dances.A true musicologist\, Jämi sources and rides the emergent wave of sonic innovation. His mixes span all genres and tempos of dance music serving up an alchemical elixir of multi-dimensional sound wizardry. Jami elegantly plays live percussion during his set which uniquely activates the shamanic potential of the dance floor. His beats are a ceremonial carnival of epic proportion. His artistry is truly unique – he is gifted and clearly called to hold some very new and transformational frequencies. Practicing with the Sufi’s for over 20 years\, Jämi is a visionary producer withan ear for the exotic. Jämi believes that Breath\, Movement & Music are the keys to unlocking human potential. \nhttps://soundcloud.com/devaliminal \n \n \nDros \nDros is an emerging fusion project by Alexander Karvelas that breathes futurity into tradition. Alexander specializes in traditional Greek music\, while also drawing on over fifteen years of disciplined study of Middle Eastern and North Indian traditions\, drawing out their points of historical and aesthetic convergence and building musical-cultural bridges across time\, space\, and memory. Dros is currently working on his first full length album of traditional Greek music\, set to release in the winter of 2024. Since long before the inception of the Dros project\, Alexander has been acting out his mission to serve as a vessel for the music and for lineages of ecstatic expression—he has performed and toured extensively with the fusion project Mah Ze Tar\, collaborated in the studio with producers such as Nyrus\, Akriza\, Soohan\, and Peace Sine\, composing and tracking live instrumentals and vocals in electronic contexts. Through these collaborations\, and through decades of live performance on stage\, Alexander sews seeds of musical reawakening; reawakening listeners\, dancers\, and audiences not just to the beauty of tradition\, but to its aliveness. \nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1hgr6xWJm5CyoBoTdbInlr

Since 2008 ALIA has toured globally bringing her medicine to dance floors of all varieties on many continents. She has performed her original music at respected festivals including Wanderlust\, Envision\, Lucidity\, SoulPlay\, Enchanted Forest\, Beloved\, and Imagine Festival and at shows with artists such as Deya\, Dova\, Porangui\, Phutureprimitive\, Desert Dwellers\, and other top caliber talents. \nShe has been a resident DJ and crowd favorite of Ecstatic Dance Bay Area since its first year and has brought her journeys to ecstatic dances across the globe. ALIA is often tapped to bring her sensual\, bass-heavy sets to a variety of cutting-edge events as well. As a producer\, ALIA has released two “Feminine Medicine” original albums – which included collaborations with eight female artists – remixes for other artists\, and her music is featured on the soundtrack for “The Bloom Series”. EDMTunes.com said\, “ALIA is paving the way for women in the conscious electronic music world” and ALIA was named a “Woman Changing the Planet” by ORIGIN magazine.. \nConnect with her here: linktr.ee/aliafrequency \n \nBRIGITTE WITTMER // Movement Facilitaor\nInternational dance artist\, instructor\, performer\, and transformational movement guide. \nHer journey has taken her across more than ten countries—from the studios of Broadway Dance Center in New York to the somatic richness of Faculdade Angel Vianna in Rio de Janeiro. Rooted in contemporary dance and Brazilian social dances\, her path weaves through somatic education\, contact improvisation\, bodywork\, yoga\, gyrokinesis\, and transpersonal psychology. Brigitte’s passion is in integrating these worlds—guiding people into deeper connection with themselves through embodied movement and creative expression. \nAs part of her ongoing research\, she developed Liquid Leading—a practice that transcends traditional gender roles and invites each dancer to speak their truth through movement. It transforms dance into a co-creative language where stories can be exchanged\, not just performed. \n“To me\, dance is more than art or fitness—it’s a gateway. A tool for awareness\, expression\, healing\, and transformation. I hold space for play\, experimentation\, and deep listening—so you can return to your body\, your power\, and the ever-evolving dance of your life.” \nLet’s move together—and discover what’s possible when you remember the wisdom already living within you! \n \n \nA Consensual Environment \n*** As we come together in sacred movement practice\, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness. May we dance in reverence for each other’s boundaries\, always seeking clear permission before engaging in physical connection\, and maintaining awareness of the sacred space we share with our fellow dancers. \nIf at any point you find yourself in need of support or comfort\, know that you are not alone.
