This is one of three fundraisers for the upcoming Odonata Festival (July 1st - 3rd, 2011). We are wrapping up, gathering the tribes and heading into the open air.
Born and raised in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, Lara's main interests are art, photography and music. Fourteen years ago when she made the move to Seattle, her life path revelated another road where she found herself DJing the music that changed her life forever; Psychedelic Trance.
Mauricio Zuniga (FractAlien aka Meta Zen) was born in Costa Rica. He started to DJ in Philadelphia in 1996 while at the University of Pennsylvania. He now resides in Miami, FL. Mauricio owned and built the psychedelic record shop, ChaosExistence.com. For 6 years, Chaos Existence was responsible for bringing some of the best psychedelic electronic music to the Pacific Northwest as well as shipping it around the world.
Mauricio's projects draw from a well of diverse sounds and influences include classical Indian, psy-trance, trip-hop, breaks, d&b, progressive, hip-hop and ambient. Mauricio likes to weave together unique soundscapes composed of his own music blended with fitting samples and selected tracks from other artists topped with a touch of live scratching. He has played with and often opened for world class talent such as Tipper, the Disco Biscuits, Hallucinogen, Younger Brother, Eat Static, Infected Mushroom, Jim Hopkins of Electroliners, Shulman, Bluetech, Hive, and many others. Mauricio is also known for his live improvisational electronic music sets and projects with The Disco Biscuits and the Obscure Project. He toured for a short period with the Disco Biscuits in 2000, rocking festivals and concerts in venues such as the Roxy, the Wetlands, and many more as they explored and innovated through new electronic and jam band sounds.
Now, Mauricio is producing under the name Meta Zen- preparing to release a full album soon.
