As the cold, blustery days begin to shift and the sun moves north of the equator on its path, let’s come together in the spirit of regeneration to celebrate the equinox and the approaching warmth, brightness, and vibrant colours of spring 🌱🌷🐇
Just Dance once again welcomes back Dave Praxis! A familiar face on the JD dancefloor - he will kick off the night, creating a sonic journey which reflects the transition from the darkness of winter to the renewed hope of the spring. Incorporating global sounds with atmospheric bass, breakbeats, and more, and integrating live djembe playing into the mix.
Alongside JD co-resident, Raghunath Khe, the two team-up to create a dynamic and ecstatic soundtrack for this playful equinox celebration. Expect choice cuts emanating from all corners of the globe, superb selections from some of our planets most pertinent and talented musicians and producers. Eclectic earth-rooted rhythms, delectable basslines, and gorgeous timbres gracefully fused with the futuristic. An intricate sonic offering creating space for a wide range of movement and expression, and providing ample opportunity for pure dance intensity, reflection, and blissful release.
Perpetually blossoming visuals for the evening will be crafted live by the excellent VJ Kashub.

:: DAVE PRAXIS ::
Dave Praxis has been dancing his smiling way through the many scenes of BC’s rave subculture for over a quarter century. Known for volunteering as an event organizer, workshop facilitator and sound tech, Praxis is an old skool raver who knows how to throw a party. He returned to DJing in 2024 after a long recovery from two inner ear surgeries that saved his life. With a renewed inspiration for music, dancing, and community, Praxis pours passion into his sets.
For this special equinox instalment of Just Dance, his set will be a journey through soundscapes, symbolizing the transition from the darkness of winter to the renewed hope of spring. It will feature global sounds infused with atmospheric bass, organic psychedelic breakbeats, and an ecstatic crescendo into the tribal driving sounds of psytech. Praxis strives to take the dancefloor on an energizing journey, additionally incorporating live djembe playing into the mix.
:: RAGHUNATH KHE ::
Raghunath Khe has been an intrinsic part of the evolving conscious dance culture for more than 25 years. An innovative composer, producer, and dj, they are interested in the transformational properties of music, movement, bhajan, and community. They have previously released four albums - earlier ones under the moniker Haitchc, have composed multiple original film scores, and are currently working on material for their fifth full-length release. Raghunath is a formal brahmana initiate within the brahma-madhva-gaudiya sampradaya (lineage), having spent several uninterrupted years as a monk studying and serving in temples both in Canada and India. They belong to the sodalities of bhakti, tantra, and ashtanga, and through familial succession, draoidh healing practice. Regularly performing, teaching, and orchestrating events, they are affiliated with Full Moon Medicine, Back Beyond, Waxing Moon, and Intention Gathering, and are a co-resident dj and organizer at Vancouver's long-running Just Dance night. In addition, Raghunath contributes musically and otherwise to various festivals and gatherings locally and internationally. A long-time radio presence, they are currently the host and producer of Mantra Radio on CiTR 101.9fm in Vancouver.

:: VJ KASHUB ::
Kashub's name stems from the tribe of his ancestry situated along what is now the Baltic Coast of Poland. The tribe, now dispersed and displaced, lived peacefully isolated amidst sand dunes and swamps along the Baltic since before the dawn of the State of the Teutonic Order some 800 years ago. VJ Kashub brings powerful visual projections to induce a spiritual scene so as to reacquaint long lost souls of his ancestry onto our dance floor.
