EDC 2024 - Here I COME!!! <3 <3
Yall... I am so fucking excited!! I don't know what universe I'm living in these days... I was just sitting here last weekend with these beautiful women around the hot tub, when EDC came up in conversation. I REALLY wanted to go, and I could almost afford tickets if all these little things didn't keep hitting me, you know? But, I wasn't going to give up! I was going to keep letting go and see if I can manifest a ticket...
Well... I'm going to EDC!!! Holy fucking SHIT!!! So... I haven't talked about or really mentioned anything music or anything in a long time... But, EDC was my first music festival, when I finally escaped Florida and all. It was an amazing celebration of this new chapter of my life! And, I was going to live it up!! I was going to be out, as a trans woman! Even with my short hair... And my zero titties... It was my first ever time using eyeliner! Foundation and powder for the first time!! I was so beyond excited, and I just... Let go!! For 3 days, I was free!! I was NOT passing!! Not even in the slightest!! But, noone really cared! And, after a while... People just, enjoyed me!!
I get into the music, the music is my thing! This music changed my life forever and got me through the roughest low periods of my life! DJing gave me purpose and drive and ambition when I felt that nothing else mattered. It was my only joy, my only excape. My only real chance to let my body fucking GO and express itself and just, get all wild and crazy!! I had chances to go on all these wild adventures, but I couldn't help myself... I just had to enjoy the music. The music was all that mattered!
Somewhere, I lost it... I've gotten so caught up in my work and work and more work and... All the drive to do all these passions of mine. My favorite rave music just, doesn't do it for me anymore. I keep trying to DJ but, these sets just feel so TIRED and overplayed to me!! I've listened to every song dozens and dozens of times! I keep trying to go back to my beloved trance, for example... But, I have to purge like, 3/4 of the songs I've had... Like... UGH!!! I have to start over, AGAIN!! Like you do! That's how you get better! Upgrade! Keep the music fresh and/or make it fucking GOOD!! But... The energy is fucking gone. I'm running on fumes...
And then... The universe blesses me with fucking EDC tickets?! Like... WHAT?!?! AND, it's camp EDC! AND, it's with my buddy Kida! AND!!!!
...I'm gonna have to make a TON of buttons to give away! Going to my new website: www.irisrefractions.com
Like... All at once, the universe is here to remind me just how, wonderful and crazy everything is! My dreams are still very much alive! This is the boost I needed to get back into what I REALLY want to do... Throw events & DJ!! Not just, throwback oldies, but my own, favorite kinds of sound that makes your brain tingle JUST right!! And, once I get THAT all zeroed in like my funky stuff, I'll be ready to REALLY make this thing work ;-)
