Noetik the Alchemist
Noe-et-tik\ Alchemical beat maker and instrumentalist, Noetik, brings a culture fused in deep bass and lush Break-Beat atmosphere. Painting landscapes with rich sonic tones and textures of fine recordings laced with a mixture of percussive originality. Mixing indigenous roots, instrumentation, HipHop, Bass Music and turntablism, he invokes a unique and hypnotic experience while delivering deep sound waves to the dance floor. Noetik began his studies of DJ culture and turntablism in 2004 and was quickly drawn to vinyl culture and music production. Residing in several cities across the United States throughout his career, Noetik has shared stages with a wide range of musicians and performing artists. With 19 years of devotion to sound science, DJing and music production, Noetik has performed at some of the most quickly growing festivals and gatherings across the globe, such as the Symbiosis Global Eclipse Gathering held in the depths of the Ochocos at Big Summit Prairie, Oregon, Luminosity Gathering in Nahatlatch Valley, British Columbia, Cosmic Convergence, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, the Winter Music Conference held in South Beach Miami, Florida, main stage at Lucidity Festival 2018 Rising Dawn, Live Oak Campground, Santa Barbra, California, the dessert of Black Rock City, Nevada for the annual Burning Man event as well as Envision Festival, nestled in the Jungle within the southern coastal region of the Osa peninsula in Costa Rica. Noetik has performed at several venues across the globe and has made an impact at some of the most prominent music venues in the United States. Noetik continues to expand his original break beat and deep intrinsic bass sound through global gatherings, underground events and international music festivals. Check out his most recent live mixes on Soundcloud and stay tuned for upcoming music releases and performances worldwide.

About Aless Shanti:
Alessandra/Aless, is a dancer, yogini, tea enthusiastic and cacao passionate!
She often starts her day with a cup of tea. From Puer to herbal infusions, she appreciates the medicine of plants. When she sits for her meditation or movement practice, a cup of tea guides her to focus and be present.
She enjoys serving tea, having conversations and creating a cosy space. During her travels all around the world she had the opportunity and interest to learn about medicinal plants and tea. She is continuously learning and humbled by the culture of tea in China and Japan.
Alessandra loves crafting herbal blends combining medicinal properties in tea, but above all, she is a passionate chocolate maker! Her recent creation, La Gourmande, delicious raw cacao truffles, pair divinely with tea. Both tea herbal blends and cacao truffles are available for purchase.
With her open heart, she will be serving tea every Wednesdays nights.
