MOSE - @mosemusica | Spotify | Website 

“Great music is that which carries the present minded listener to the doorstep of infinity. All music already exists ­ the musician is here in service to remove a bit of the veil and let some of it through into this physical space. Through the use of a steady hypnotic beat, paired with ethereal voices and melodies we can release into the void and remember who we are ­ we are one.” 

Mose is based in Guatemala on the beautiful volcanic crater lake of Atitlán where cacao ceremonies, kirtan, and ecstatic dance have had a major influence on his productions and DJ style. It is here that he founded regular cacao dances where members of the community have the opportunity to journey deep into dance while held in a ceremonial container, free of alcohol.

Beyond the multicultural rhythms and the steady hypnotic beat, Mose weaves ephemeral chanting of sacred songs and calls to love, kindness and compassion, often bringing in live musicians to create something improvisational connected with that particular place and time. He creates with the intention to set a foundation for self discovery and the cultivation of a present minded state which offers new insights and deeper clarity in ones purpose.

When he is not touring the world or playing these special events in Guatemala, he spends his time going into extended periods of retreat and silence, only to emerge with a deeper, truer and more refined sound. He also supports other emerging artists through his record label Resueño with an intention to bring resonant souls together to create music that uplifts and inspires. The label transcends any particular cultural aesthetic and explores a universal vibration through weaving sounds and languages from around the world. It is also a vehicle for social causes as 50% of all label profits are donated to causes around the shores of Lake Atitlán to support members of the community most in need.

FRANKO HEKE - @frankoheke | Spotify | Website

Franko Heke, of Ngāpuhi Māori and Italian descent, is a musician known for his unique fusion of mantra and reggae ‘Cosmic Kirtan’. Influenced by Xavier Rudd, Michael Jackson, Guns N' Roses, Cat Stevens, Krishna Das, and Metallica, Franko's music career has taken him on tours across Japan and the USA. Born in the 1980s, Franko's early dreams were split between music and sports, but music ultimately won his heart.

He transitioned from a rock'n'roll lifestyle to a more mindful approach, embracing meditation, yoga, and breathwork. This change led him to create NZ Spirit & Resolution festivals, alcohol-free, family-oriented events that celebrate community wellness with holistic workshops and music.

​Through his music and workshops, Franko seeks to raise consciousness and promote unity, drawing on his Māori heritage and ancient mantras. Heke is more than just a musician; he’s a catalyst for unity, celebrating our connections to each other and Mother Earth, and his message is reaching audiences far and wide.

BRUNA -  @bruna.bortolato

Bruna Bortolato is a Spiritual Life Coach, certified Women’s Empowerment Mentor, ceremonialist & a movement teacher born and raised in Brazil. Bruna’s desire of deepening her spiritual path led her to leave Brazil at the age of 23, traveling around the world studying yoga and meditation. She explores different cultures and immerses herself in nature where she spends time in reflection listening to a higher guidance. Bruna is based in Guatemala on the beautiful lake of Atitlán, a place where she fell in love and saw an opportunity to go deeper into her journey. Bruna has studied holistic coaching for over four years and has attended and hosted many workshops and retreats. She teaches embodiment through sacred movement, a practice of being in your body—that ignites creativity, connection, and community.

Her main focus in this practice is to hold space by creating a safe-boundaries-environment in which people can integrate, transform and heal in body, mind, heart and spirit. She leads sharing circles and different workshops, helping women break free from old patterns to discover a truest sense of freedom. Bruna also works closely with her dreams and incorporates the hermetic qabalistic tree of life as a map. She has spent many days in silent retreat over the past 5 years and it has taken a primary role in her path of self discovery. Bruna finds that by spending extended periods of silence she can connect deeper with spirit and her highest self. Bruna is on a mission to help women awaken on a global scale. She believes healing must be done collectively. With more and more women stepping up, she anticipates the world will witness the greatest transformation. In the last 2 year and half Bruna has dedicated her life to the Spirit of Cacao. Bruna together with her partner have been hosting cacao ceremonies all over the world and also in the sacred land of the Mayans-Guatemala. Her intention is to bring cacao to the world so everyone can experience, feel and integrate the ancient wisdom into their lives. Her mission is to contribute towards a more loving and compassionate world.
