Behind the decks,
I'm Onizal.

French electronic music came first. Living in the US brought dubstep. London brought jungle, drum and bass, a warehouse full of artists, and my own sound system. Spain added Latin rhythms and psytrance. I still hear all those places in what I play.

As Onizal, I mix electronic music with tribal rhythms, folk, and world bass. A set needs somewhere to go. I like giving it time: quiet moments, and the kind of bass you feel before you think about it.

All is one, one is all.

A room full of people

Ecstatic dance gives you room to move without choreography. I’m just as interested in what happens between people on the floor. How to invite someone. How to respect a no. How to stay aware of yourself while moving with someone else.

In Koh Phangan, we created Divine Ecstatic because I noticed how often people danced alone, feeling shy, judging themselves, or unsure how to approach someone. We started with a workshop to help us connect, then danced, and ended with a singing circle.

My movement workshops explore this alongside solo practice. You join at your own pace. Watching or resting is part of it too.

Listen, or bring it somewhere

You’ll find the music and the dance format on Onizal, and mixes on SoundCloud. For festivals, retreats, and gatherings, the event page describes the formats.

If you have a room, a group of people, and an idea, tell me about it.
