The album’s opening track, “Be Free,” is intended to put you in touch with whatever makes you feel alive and free. It is also a tribute to ecstatic dance. This form of expression, which I discovered less than a decade ago, has indeed led me to places of physical, spiritual, and emotional ecstasy.

Ecstatic dance facilitators often utilize “waves” in their sets, taking participants on an energetic roller coaster between states of gentle, slow, open, and flowing energy and peaks of denser and more punctuated staccato energy. You’ll experience some of that in this song, where an extended spacious intro lulls you into a trance, and then gradually lifts you into a serious groove.
