..Another Dojo Saturday Night
Meredith
10pm – 1am
Let’s see what unfolds as we sit, sip and gather around many over-filled cups of heartfully sourced tea most likely from Western China, and perhaps some Mendocino County grown herbs. Later during this sit, Serenata will be holdin’ down a downtempo dj set beginning at 12am.
Meredith loves tea and just may never put it down. Catch her playing amongst spaces and places in warmth and connection, with a dash of soft sarcasm. Her hope is that the dojo is a place for connection and integration, for both internal silent sipping and meaningful conversations—kindled by the subtle spirit of tea flowing through our community.
Downtempo Sounds
Serenata
Midnight – Onward
Serenata (Spencer Sears) was raised in the state of Maine, immersed in the natural beauty of its mountains, woods & waters. With eclectic music a part of his upbringing, a love for reggae, dub & hip hop eventually led him to trip hop, downtempo & other styles of electronic. As an outdoor enthusiast & drummer his sound is inspired by the natural world & has grown to encompass a diverse blend of organic & world influenced downtempo oriented music. While not restricted to lower tempos, he aims to open up listeners to the potential within smoother & slower sounds.
