Thank you Gaian Mind for an incredible weekend. Saturday night was an amazing night of music. Lost Baba and Bastard rocked the place, making everyone stomp their demons out. Deviant Species has some of the most groovy ass shaking dark-psy I've ever heard. Jaia's new music was very intelligent deep tribal emotional, great vibes groovin to his set with the sun beaming down. Edoardo had some funky ass full on and the mixes were flawless, great set just wish I had more energy to give, my legs were about to fall off. Mizue's artwork was beautiful and the projections were really cool too. My only complaint would be I felt the sound was a little too weak for this caliber of an event. Heard it was because Four Quarters regulates how loud they can get, maybe they should look for another place. Gotta be able to feel the music as well as hear it. Thanks again Gaian Mind for an awesome experience.
Peace and Light-

We at Four Quarters love Gaian Mind as an event, especially with the number of trance dancers amoung our members. And it has been a rare privilage to watch the event and its people mature and develope their own culture here on the Land. The spiritual awareness of the attendees grows and evolves each year, and was better this year at +800 on site, than in previous years with under 600. The music and the Land work well togeather in transmitting the message.

Personally, I found the sound by Sonic Beating to be dialed in, reading 114.5 at the center of the dance floor. We (Gaian Mind/Four Quarters/Sonic Beating) have a number of tricks that are incorporated in the sound system. Sonic Beating developed a unique system of phase alinement for the stacks that resulted in a 2-3 db low frequency pressure wave increase in a number of nodal points across the dance floor, at points it was very physically tangible when one walked into the nodes. A great deal of effort went into tweeking the frequency distrubutions with active, digital monitoring and filtering. The sound was crystal clean. We also crank the sound in the wee hours, and scale back 2 db when neighbors are falling asleep or getting up. Just being a good neighbor ourselves.

I heard many positive comments about the effect that the Land has on attendees, comments we hear often. Four Quarters is an InterFaith Religious Sanctuary, (read: a bazarre church for bizarre times)and the Land is charged. Sensitive people quickly pick up on that and it adds a great deal to their experience of the dance, the trance and the music. For me personally, looking down over the chill out area throough the tall tulip poplar trees, resplendant in colors reflecting off the river; remains every year a high point of the event.

We look forward to even more of this "best of breed" event in the years to come.

Couldn't go this year - but last year the most amazing thing about the festival was definitely the SPACE, FourQuarters is unbelievable, one of the most beautiful and powerful spots I've been to. My Native American friend was seeing spirits everywhere around, and I had some deeply enlightening moments there.

The sound had some problems last year, also. Not sure what can be done about it, but if it was between putting up with the sound, and having to move the event, I would vote to keep the Gaian Mind at FourQuarters, no question about it. That space is magical.
          ..it's just another party..

wow what a weekend, feel that i just recovered, saturday night was one for the books, everyone rocked it out. i wish jaia would have gone on a little sooner though,
my only complaint would have to be the sound, the low mid the high mid and the highs all seemed to be fine, but there didnt seem to be any true hitting bass, i understand its sacred ground and theres neighbors but seeing such high quality artists with so many people around I feel like I needed some real bass, IMO it would be worth it to find a new spot that could be blown away next year,

Yes, thank you very much Gaian Mind and all those at 4Q that work so hard every year so that we can be so spoiled! I took some kids
out of the Cleveland Ghetto this year and exposed them to the possibilites of a different way. It's amazing to see all of the pictures and all of the people who I don't know by name, but still made a connection with on the dance floor and in conversation. It so nice when the world becomes a little smaller! Thank you! Special thanks to all of the Deco artists who have instilled life long images
in my skull.

Peace and Blessings
