Ecstatic Morning Rave: BE FREE at The Other Side Amsterdam

Note that at this edition we will make some videos of the crowd. We do this every 4-6 months to have the other editions be fully video/photo free. Thank you for being part of our mission. <3 Dear raver, BE FREE is space for the sober(-curious) ravers. We believe in the ecstasy - rave - music can evoke in us, even without the use of any substance. Expect your favourite (afro)House, techno & trance music, carefully curated into a musical journey with both valleys and peaks.... The entire event is free of any form of substance, phone-less, talk-free and bare-foot. All to support you to enjoy the rave from the inside out and possibly in a new way compared to what you are used to. BE FREE is a down-to-earth space where everyone is welcome. No-fluff, yet real depth. We bring dance back to the dance floor! We have so much magic already within us... If we just dare to go there.... The music style Some songs have the power to transport you beyond this world; touching something deep inside, where mystery and ecstasy awaken. That is what BE FREE is all about: entering the mystery, surrendering to the music, and discovering the ecstasy that already lives within you. Our DJ-sets weave together the mystical and the otherworldly. They carry you with ethereal vocals, long and enchanting build-ups, and raw, uplifting drops that move through every bone in your body. The sound of BE FREE consist mainly of Melodic Techno (Afterlife), Mysterious Afro-House, and Tribal Beats, with powerful peaks where Hard Techno and (Psy-)Trance come into play. Expect the waves of ecstatic dance - yet with gentler and shorter valleys, so the energy is built up again soon after and mostly uptempo. Expect the power of a club/rave DJ-set, but carried by a deeper intention; we place a big emphasis on the journey of the set. You can find out more about our energy on Instagram @befreecommunity_ and step into the mystery with us. But words can only go so far… The true magic of BE FREE can only be experienced. Guidelines At BE FREE we honor the simple yet powerful guidelines of Ecstatic Dance. They create the container that makes the experience so magical; helping you drop out of the mind and into the body, into connection with yourself, the music, and others.
