"Connectance" is a monthly community event in Santa Cruz is designed to be a meaningful space for deep connection. It intentionally expands beyond the dance floor to allow access to all our relational tools. Imagine it as the love child of a festival and a house party. Of the three rooms in this beautiful space, one will be a dedicated squishy space for tea & cacao service where conversation is welcome and consensual cuddling is encouraged.

"Puerta Del Sol" is a new collaborative release on the trndmsk label by Yemanjo and J.Pool featuring remixes by Marco Tegui, Mollono.Bass and Slow Nomaden.

About Yemanjo: Yemanjo is a project of producer, DJ, and singer/multi-instrumentalist Ben Harris. His original music is a polyrhythmic concoction of downtempo/ethnic house beats blended with traditional instruments and tribal chants from Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.   He is well-known on the international conscious dance circuit in Europe, the US and in Central America, where he is part of the vanguard of a flowering dance scene in Lake Atitlan. His live sets are a hypnotic fusion of his original beats with live trumpet, vocals in three languages and other surprises.
