POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

For me, Manafest was a bit over 11 years in the making. In 2014, out in the dust, I discovered edm and dancing. I loved it. The snark. The art. The people. I tried on different pieces of myself that I normally hid. No one cared, and that…was liberating. It changed me.

Eight years later, a bunch of Bassboss speakers wandered into my life. It is such a privilege to own them. They have opened the door to meeting many incredible people.

@creatures_virtue my girlfriend of a long, long, time is what has made all of this possible, just as much as I have. We have always worked so well together, and she has so many good ideas. She didn’t believe me 11 years ago, when I said we’d have a party of our own, with quality speakers, but here we are. I love her.

I met @justnieman some months after 2000 lbs of Bassboss was dumped onto my driveway. He was playing music I really liked, the kind I’d been hearing at festivals. I knew I wanted to collaborate with him. None of this would have happened without him. He’s stuck with me through the good and the bad. I’m grateful to be building something that looks and sounds so good, with someone who is such a close friend, and so technically skilled.

@mindgoblin_official I stumbled upon last year at Hulaween, purely through his music. Every time I walked by his camp, there were tunes I loved. I had to give him my card. He and all his friends have turned out to be such lovely people. Thank you for everything Taylor. It’s such a good time being your friend.

@earthtokeeley, what did I do to deserve you? You have taken such good care of me for all these years.

@rheneydazephotography and @awallphotography , thank you for all the photos. They are perfect.

@inwokingdistance thank you for the food. It saved me a couple of times.

@powl.wav @grandmapam69 @wherehousethreads @matty___brizz @l_.music_ thank you for going far beyond the extra mile to help out, running stages, building all kinds of things, organizing and directing with us, just because you could. We would be doomed without people like you.

Manafest will be back. 😼

ManaFest has been years in the making, and to have seen it come to life is magical ✨✨ Throwing a music festival is a surreal experience, and honestly much more work than I could’ve anticipated. I’ll be catching up on sleep for a while 🥱

So many people were involved, and I’m just blown away by how kind and generous everyone has been with their time. An incredible community has formed around this event, and I’m grateful to have been involved in its planning.

I’ve been putting most of my creative energy into making jewelry for the last 14 years, and it’s been really nice to work in some other mediums, and have it be so well received. Thank you everyone who came and interacted with my art. Whether it was stopping by the Philosopher’s Stop for a cup of tea, participating in my beaded plant workshop, or making a new festival fit for yourself at the free boutique, I appreciate y’all so much 🥲

Thank you also to @awallphotography and @rheneydazephotography for coming out and capturing ManaFest so beautifully with all your photos 💕

Excited for next year! ✨✨

✨Wow, we’re still fucking unpacking 😮‍💨

We’ve been to all sorts of festivals, because we love dancing, and music, and people.

Eventually, it became a dream to bring that home with us, and do it in our own way. We love music and dancing and being kind toward each other, and we know other people do too.

Manafest is our attempt at throwing a party, nay, a festival, we’d want to hang out at, and dance at.

For our first big party, it turned out better than we anticipated (a little bit ;))

Thank you to everyone who helped us. Throwing a festival is a huge undertaking, and so many skilled individuals came together to make this happen.

Manafest would not have been possible without the help of our dear friend @mindgoblin_official. Thank you for helping us bring all these people together, and for all your work organizing the renegade stage.

To @pyro.possum and all the flowmies ❤️‍🔥 Y’all went above and beyond, appreciate you bringing the heat.

@rheneydazephotography @awallphotography thank you both so much for coming out and capturing ManaFest with all your amazing photos

We’re excited to shared what we’ve got in store for next year ✨

MANAFEST!! So much magick held in this space. I had such a wonderful time connecting with everyone and getting to be a part of such a beautiful community of human beings and creatives!! ABSOLUTE GRATITUDE AND LOVE FOR YALL 💕

Biggup to @pluto.events.avl and @mindgoblin_official for having me out and for putting together such a fantastic fest. So grateful to be a part of the birth of something new and beautiful. And don’t forget about that PHAT @bassbossbass sound system. 🔊 🤯

Slide three you get a sneak peak at the amazing @rollinracy being a wizard with the dragon staff to some of my tunes. Biggup to @pyro.possum and the rest of the fire flow crew that lit up the night and showed up with a team with mad skills!! 🔥

Biggup to @rheneydazephotography for the high quality captures!! 📷

Also, if you go to the last slide, you’ll get a sneak peak at mine and @mindgoblin_official ‘s new collab project @friendswithbenefits_official. Dropping some new funky music there. 👀 ⬆️

This year thus far has been nothing short of a dream come true. Thank you Manafest for being another manifestation of that. I love you guys ✌🏼

We had an absolutely magical time at Mana Fest in Anderson SC. I'm pretty sure this was my favorite festival yet. The amount of thought, time, and passion that was put into this was incredible and felt throughout the whole weekend. I cannot wait for next year. I met so many wonderfully creative people. Which is huge for me, because it usually takes a lot for me to feel comfortable enough coming out of my shell. I was really glad that I made the last minute patches as well. Being able to give those to people who make my experience special has really helped me interact with others more as well. As usual, I barely took any pictures, but here's the few I did.

If I met you at @mana.fest2026 I'd love to connect here and hope to see you at the next one

Asheville-based house DJ beatRABB!T brings funky house, driving tech house, and just a splash of disco to the dance floor.

Her sets are all about chunky basslines, cheeky rhythms, and finding that sweet spot between bounce and bite.

Occasionally spotted spinning atop Pinkspot’s Big Bunny art car at Burning Man, she brings a playful, high-energy approach wherever she lands. 🐇⚡
