Starlight Thursdays Episode 144 featuring BK Love with A live recording from Neon Night
I believe house parties are the staple of the electronic music scene in Montana.
Outside of our venues and mountain parties, often hidden out of sight from the public view, small sound systems bump providing all that’s needed for a living room dance session. These are my roots. If I had to guess there your roots too and perhaps the birthplace of party culture in general. Inside the comfort of home we explore the elements and fundamentals that make up the foundation for large scale gatherings. We engage in conversations that sometimes require a intimate space to explore. We connect with one another often building deeper relationships.
It’s at these kind of parties I feel extra comfortable and inspired to be experimental with mixing music. It’s a treat to feel like there’s no pressure, to let go in the moment, explore the tracks and gear. I find myself getting pretty lost sonically. Layering track after track, looping and bending sounds with fxs, finding new ways to make transitions and selecting on the fly.
This recording is from Neon Night. A house party by the newly formed crew “Mega Camp.” Behind the helm of the collective you have Angela, Juan and John often sharing their space and philosophy with the intent on having a great time. I think it was really successful. Lots of black lights, UV Reactive tapestries, comfortable cozy places to chill and a floor to bust a move. Delicious snacks and consistent PLURR vibes… Ah… I’m still glowing. They set the stage for beautiful conversations and a sense of togetherness that just leaves me feeling pretty warm and fuzzy.
Here’s a few words they put together to share with us.
"Sometimes the key to facilitating deeper connections with other humans requires a space where everyone is comfortable and in their element. Being in a safe place where you're loved, accepted and appreciated truly brings out the extrovert in you that you didn't know existed. One of the things we love most about vibing with other people is learning more about ourselves through them. People of all ages have different life experiences and knowledge to share. We thrive in environments where not only are we in good company, but feel like we're a part of a special tribe of people who have come together to create a holy space where we can dance, talk, appreciate each other to our heart's desire and know what it means to be alive. We're so grateful to have found a community that feels the way we do and wants to share this experience to the whole world. All people should know what it's like to be a part of something like this. It's our mission to be a lighthouse in the storm and guide others to a place of enlightenment."
