Hi! My name is Dimitri Dermencioglu, and I like to refer to myself as an “artist that lives in music”.
Throughout three decades in the world of music, I have served actively as an international DJ, Event/Festival Organiser, Music Therapist, Multi-Instrumentalist, Curator of Music Improvisation Circles, Voice Activator, Singer/Chanter, Master of Ceremony, Radio Host, Podcaster, Music Composer/Producer under different names.
All those names turned into temporary aliases that gifted me with extensive experience in music, celebration and ritual and also took me into service worldwide.
Today, my experiences have become a philosophy, a study and a practice that I call "Frequency Lifestyle".
Since 2015, “The Music Medicine” has been the project/name
I have been known, birthed and inspired by indigenous and plant medicine rituals in Brazil and the arrival of the symbol of “YAO” (which indicates Medicine + Music in pre-Chinese language) and re-birthed and redefined in Turkey and my contact with the school of Sufism.
My deep involvement with indigenous cultures, rituals and religious ceremonies of all kinds has unlocked and enriched me with a whole new understanding and level of musical expression.
One as a medicine for the soul!
Ever since, I have been on a mission to consciously study and practice the effects of sound, music, dancing, chanting and praying, ritual and celebration as a tool to shift consciousness, harmonise, unify or even heal!
Today, my service blends and is influenced by tradition and modernity, spirituality and science, celebration and meditation, facilitating safe spaces for the expression and development of the soul.
A way to bring people and cultures together, awaken creativity and potential, practice and share the effects of music and sound that come from the heart and eventually, foster harmony & joy wherever I go!
