Coming back after his last unforgettable performance a year ago, one of the biggest names of the Andean electronic music – Rodrigo Gallardo from Chile. During his live performances he plays charango, samponias and sings to his very danceable electronic music productions. He was a part of the legendary band Matanza, he toured the world many times and collaborated with artists like Nicola Cruz. His tracks are being played around the world in millions because or his unique and recognizable style and voice. He’s probably the best person to perform in the Sacred Valley and share the Andean tradition mixed into a modern dance form.

The second main act of the day will come from the Peruvian music scene legend – Miki Gonzales, in his electronic music project called Mikongo. Miki is still celebrating 50 years on stage and it’s an honor to welcome him back to our event. His music introduced many generations of Peruvians to reggae and afro rhythms, while his lyrics were strongly anti-establishment. As a producer he likes mixing house music, downtempo and folk influences from Peru and Latin America.

Our female guest who will open the dance space of the day Claralight, a really experienced local peruvian dj who loves to take people on a hypnotic journeys through electronic dance music, inspired by world famous artists like Mira. She’s also a mother, partner and a designer of female medicine clothing.

The host of ED Sacred Valley – RAQ will have the honors of closing the evening with his usual Ecstatic Dance music selection combining inspirations from plant medicine work and life in the jungle and the Andes. So far performing from Japan, through Germany, Poland, Norway, Greece, UK, Romania, Portugal, Mexico, Costa Rica and Peru along artists like Mose, Rodrigo Gallardo, Porangui, Ape Chimba, Alex Sierra, Janax Pacha, Flume, Chancha Via Circuito, Lagartijeando, Tokimonsta and many more.

We close the night with a grounding sound journey and Sacred Fire.

Location:
It’s time to share a few words about the incredible space of Munay Sonqo Retreat & Yoga Center – Sach’a Munay in Arin, Sacred Valley where the event will take place and this time mention it’s unique story of an eastern European novel called The Witcher, bestselling video game and Ayahuasca healing. (!)
Munay Sonqo is probably the most amazing retreat center and temple space in Peru and one of the best ones in the world. The place is nestled below the sacred apu Pitusiray and nearby a waterfall. It’s gardens are full of flowers and humming birds, while there are 2 tons of selenite crystals under the wooden floor of the main temple where we will dance, with the view of Pitusiray through the glass roof. If you want to have some relaxation, you can also get the the spa ticket with jacuzzis, saunas, cold plunge and salt cave (200 soles ticket+spa). Or if you want to go with a full retreat you can rent a room, with food, spa and ticket included (450 soles).

Not many people know the story of the center, it was created by one of the owners of CD-Projekt Red, the game dev company that took a famous polish novel about a Witcher who takes different magical potions in order to slay demons and turned it into the best selling game in the world, making the owner rich but also destroyed with stress from work. It’s been ayahuasca, yoga and vipassana that helped him to heal and change his life. He decided to leave the gaming industry and share the healing he received, so he opened Munay Sonqo in orders for others to also experience the magic of these holistic modalities.

Thanks to that we can now come together dance in the best space in Peru!

Music:

Claralight

Claraluz Saavedra, known artistically as Claralight, has cultivated her passion for dance from an early age, focusing especially on Afro-Peruvian dances due to the immersive percussion that she would later masterfully integrate into her sets as a DJ.

After exploring diverse electronic scenes and captivating audiences eager for enriching musical experiences, Claralight’s path took a loving and meaningful turn towards facilitating Ecstatic Dances. Her style unfolds through various variants, from downtempo to melodic techno and progressive underground.

Characterized by the inclusion of organic sounds that evoke natural resonances and percussive elements such as drums, cajons and bongos, as well as ethnic vocals from Arabic, shamanic, Mayan and Hindu traditions, Claralight creates a unique sound narrative. Her sets begin with light and chillout sounds, and then delve into a rhythmic persuasion with characteristic techhouse beats, culminating in progressive techno structures and oriental fusions of deeptechno and progressive underground.

RAQ

RAQ (pronounced RAKU 楽 jap. Comfort & Music)
