Beyond being a catalyst for joy and catharsis, @gravitate_clt is always a cool mile marker/skills check on what I’ve been learning in the time in between parties. The last few weeks I’ve obsessing over a melodic 4 drum rumba riff off of a video on YouTube titled “A Lake Worth Rumba” of my teacher @congajohnny playing with friends 🪘 My rendition is kinda messy and my drums are out of tune but really I just needed content to spam you with and also reiterate my love for this practice as always. Anyways, event info is on slide 2, inspo in slide 3 ✌️
GRAVITATE NINE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!🍾
For nine years you’ve helped us keep the dance floor alive. Thank you for filling our nights with movement, energy, connection, and love for the music.
We promise to continue bringing you the best in Underground House and dance music while honoring the roots and spirit of the culture. See you all May 16th.

"Invocador"
Last week I got to witness @cloudy_ohhhh and @rebeccalippsart 's interactive percussion and visual art set down at 1st Ward Park during @cltshout
I had the privilege of seeing him sharing a technique that is historically used to provide a space that ancestors share with the living. I knew the photos would turn out magical but had no idea that I would be capturing energy and auras.
Link up with him to learn more about the spiritual side of music because if you want to learn about it, he is the best one to help you!
