Twas a time when to the delight of many, the dismay of some and the confusion of others, late nights at DNE Summer Camp were transformed from sleep time to shimmering temples of the mythic realms, where waves of electronic funk and the chants of forgotten tribes were woven into extraterrestrial ballrooms and graceful beings of love and light danced through the velvet corridors of night to seduce back the sun at every dawn.

The three primary sonic alchemists of this ritual after many years of happy service in DNE then departed leaving a tradition to be nurtured & developed by many others of unique voice & talent.

Since then Kenny Rhythmystic, Haj and Mikio have performed together and apart in all the corners of this land and at times abroad and the vitality of this music and way of dancing in ritual & community were experienced by many others along their way and were embraced. Most recently Freek Factory, the beloved tribe of said alchemists composed the music for the "East Coast Tribal" BellyDance with Sera DVD which presold 12,000 copies and held the #1 best selling bellydance DVD slot on Amazon for months. A companion CD follows this very month with contributions from Bassnectar, Kraddy, Pedro, SubSwara, David Starfire, Kush Arora and more.

In celebration Rhythmystic, Haj and Mikio will with their fellow musicians and Tribal BellyDance partners will for the first time on the east coast since summer camp 2004 weave once again those shimmering temples of global beats and twilight. This message is a signal fire in the first minutes of dusk seeking to summon those dancing beings of yore (and ALL those whom from their hearts voice are called to the Beat)
