What if the dancefloor were your most honest, living prayer?In this episode, I'm joined by Tasha Blank, celebrated international DJ, somatic practitioner, teacher, and founder of The Get Down, The Drop, BODY LANGUAGE, and global leadership academy Powerhouse DJ School (PhDJ).A student of somatic healing, shadow work, story, and ceremony, Tasha's nervous system-based approach to transformation through movement is a wild invitation into your most powerful expression.She's known for liberating hips in New York City's most legendary clubs, the world's wildest festivals, and museums, churches, helipads, boats, roving desert ships, forests, and mountaintops everywhere.She kicks off each set with a moment of silence and invocation. "Even for folks who've never seen a giant club get totally quiet and take a pause, it's an important part of the experience. When a crowd trusts each other enough to be still together for a few minutes, you can take them anywhere."This conversation is a portal for space holders, facilitators, artists, DJs, and dancers who want to lead and move from your depths, liberate your body, or dance as a living expression of your soul.

Drew shares a DJing moment that made his blood boil, the guys mourn the loss of a beloved Milwaukee Buck, and somehow still manage to craft a calming mantra to keep it all together. They also dive into the eternal debate: are books better than their movie adaptations. Drew sips on a 2019 Bourbon County Brand Mon Cheri Stout from Goose Island

An episode that isn't about making art that's palatable—it's about making art that's true. In Episode 145 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr Angela Kingdon continues our journey through the 10 Pillars of Autistic Culture as we move onto Pillar 7 — Boldly Creating with Nina Danon, Composer, Sound Artist, and Doctoral Researcher, whose work explores the rich intersections between autism, music, creativity, and sensory experience.Nina's work on Musical Neuroqueering will be published in 2026 in Neuroqueer Theory and Practice, edited by Dr Nick Walker, providing the first draft of her toolkit to empower anyone to expand their neurodivergence through music, and music through neurodivergence.Autistic creativity is deeply rooted in our sensory experiences, emotional intensity, and need for authentic self-expression.Boldly Creating is the autistic drive to express truth through movement, sound, pattern, and special interest, using creativity as connection, regulation, and radical self-expression. So much of boldly creating comes from stimming and sensory experiences that are core to music and the heart of your work.Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Boldly Creating isn't about making art that's palatable—it's about making art that's true. * We don't wait for permission to make art, to move, to stim, or to build new worlds. We create in ways that often defy convention—through rhythm, repetition, structure, texture, sound, and story. * Autistics' creative work is fueled by special interests, hyperfocus, and bottom-up processing. We invent new forms when existing ones don't fit, building from the ground up, not following someone else's form.* Whether it's knitting, composing, coding, dancing, designing, scripting, or sound-building, autistic people boldly create because that's how we process, regulate, connect, and express our deepest selves.* Autistic creativity is sensory-rooted, emotionally rich, and self-expressive, often expressed through movement (like stimming), sound, visuals, and texture.Key Concepts:* Stimming is performance. Fandom is creation. Knitting is structure, roller derby is choreography.* Bold creation resists perfection—it values expression over conformity.* Autism-centered creativity often dismantles genre boundaries.* It's embodied, synaesthetic, non-linear: world as your playground.

We would have loved to be there for this one, the parties are some of the finest in Australia, pure music heads hosted by our good friends at Cunning Stunts. Check out the page for upcoming parties if you are ever up in the region for a dope afternoon. https://cunningstunts.com.au/ - While Stephen Allkins is in Sydney, we are lucky to be able to have him play the SPIRIT OF HOUSE tribute jam next month in July. Check out the mix and come down and enjoy the vibe as we pay homage to 30+ years of house music with an afternoon of SOULFUL HOUSE classics, 90's House & a solid dose of DISCO ROOTS. Sunday, July 6 @ 2pm at GREENWOOD HOTEL (North Sydney) Info at www.soulofsydney.org/spiritofhouse - About STEPHEN ALLKINS : ‘New York had Larry Levan, Chicago had Ron Hardy, Sydney has, Stephen Allkins..' It is safe to say that Stephen Allkins aka [love] tattoo could rightly claim the trademark of “Mr.Disco”, his extensive record collection & his infamous sets over the years. Stephen Allkins—aka [Love] Tattoo—is an undisputed icon of Australian dance music. A DJ, producer, and pioneer, he has been shaping the sound of disco and house music in Australia since the late 1970s, laying the foundations for the vibrant club culture that followed. From the earliest disco nights in Sydney's gay clubs to underground warehouse parties and mainroom raves, Stephen's sound has consistently pushed boundaries and inspired generations. Affectionately known as “Mr. Disco,” Stephen began DJing in 1978, spinning vinyl in a scene still forming its identity. He was among the first in Sydney to champion disco and later house music, earning a reputation as the “DJ's DJ” for his impeccable selections, deep crates, and intuitive ability to work a dancefloor. His sets were spiritual experiences, blending deep disco grooves, vocal house, and electronic soul with an effortless mastery that helped define the sound of a city. As [Love] Tattoo, Stephen stepped into the studio and brought his musical vision to life with a series of genre-defining releases that bridged the golden era of disco with the pulse of modern house. His breakout single “History of Disco” (2001)—a lush, soulful tribute co-produced with Paul Mac—was quickly signed by Pete Tong to Essential Records and released on the legendary UK label ffrr. The track resonated internationally and marked Allkins as not just a DJ, but a gifted producer with a reverence for dance music's roots. Today, Stephen Allkins stands as one of the most important figures in Australia's dance music history. His influence is felt in every corner of the scene—from crate-digging selectors and disco revivalists to mainstage house DJs and producers. With over four decades of contributions behind him, his legacy continues to inspire the next wave of artists and dancers alike. We are honoured to welcome him back to play the SPIRIT OF HOUSE tribute parties again at one of the seminal homes of the sound through the 90s. About the SPIRIT OF HOUSE: Spirit of House is a tribute party paying homage to an era of house that sits close to our hearts, a platform to get down to SOULFUL HOUSE sounds of 90s & 2000's & 90's House classics & of course the disco roots that form the foundation of that sound.
