How was summer there? The island has always been a source of art and inspiration.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, I am, and I\u2019ve been enjoying kirtans, singing circles, and jam gatherings. These musical events are really blossoming here. I\u2019ve also been going to alcohol-free parties where smoking is banned on the dance floor, which has been my dream for a long time. It was difficult to find this vibe on the island before, but after the pandemic, more people are interested in these kinds of parties.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, there\u2019s been a crackdown from the authorities. They banned some of these events because of licensing issues and even fined organizer 300K. That\u2019s one of the limitations of this island. So, I haven\u2019t been to any \u201cnormal\u201d parties like techno, house, trance, or even hippie-style parties since the pandemic. Please don\u2019t ask me about the Ibiza party scene! lol<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Firstly, who is RaLuna? What is the intention behind the transition from Hideyo Blackmoon?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We\u2019ve all entered the \u201cage of Aquarius,\u201d which feels bright and light. I felt I needed to change myself to align with this new energy, and the name Blackmoon no longer resonated with me. I believe we\u2019re ready to be healed collectively, and consciousness is awakening to a higher frequency. The name \u201cRaLuna\u201d came to me one morning last year, and I felt it was perfect\u2014Ra represents the Egyptian sun god, and Luna means the moon. My old name, Hideyo Blackmoon, also had sun and moon symbolism: Hideyo means \u201csun comes out at night.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since then, I\u2019ve been on a journey to transform into this new identity, following this unknown path with joy and listening to the whispers of my heart. RaLuna carries a similar intention as Blackmoon, believing music is the key to accessing our true selves. It helps break down the walls created by society, beliefs, and wounds, opening the gate to our hearts and connecting us with our divine self.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What\u2019s your relationship with sound? Could you tell us about your music journey?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Are you sure, you\u2019re ready? This is going to be long! lol. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been surrounded by music since childhood\u2014my whole family was musical. I started keyboard lessons at age 3, although I wasn\u2019t very disciplined about practicing. My brother introduced me to bands like Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, and King Crimson, and the music that had the biggest impact on me was Pink Floyd\u2019s *Dark Side of the Moon*at age 10. The first vinyl I ever bought was by Isao Tomita, a synthesizer master from the \u201870s, at age 9. In high school, I was asked to be a vocalist, and soon after, I was in several bands, both in and out of school. I got into the nightclub scene in Tokyo in the mid-80s, which took over my focus more than school. I didn\u2019t want to enter &#8220;normal&#8221; society, and eventually, drug include hard drugs became a part of my life.<\/p>\n<p>I grew up with strict parents, and my father was violent toward my mother. I was sexually abused by a stranger at age 9, and after that, I was bullied at school. Looking back, I can see how my energy changed after this particular terrible event. My childhood and teenage years were tough, so I understand why my past self went down a dark path. At the time, I enjoyed my unhealthy lifestyle\u2014it felt freeing. It was also considered cool to live that way at old time. I was already making mixtapes back in the day when cassette tapes were the thing\u2014selecting music, organizing tracks, and creating what we would now call playlists. After clubbing, I always needed something relaxing to listen to. I gravitated towards ambient, drone, and experimental music, like Brian Eno, Steve Roach, and Art of Noise etc. Friends who hung out at my place would often ask me to share those tapes with them. That period also let me witness the rise of house music and the &#8220;four-on-the-floor&#8221; beat.<\/p>\n<p>Tokyo\u2019s club scene was booming then\u2014Japan\u2019s economy was high, and pop-up parties, after- hours events, and clubs and bars, fun things were everywhere. One night in the early \u201890s, I found myself in a 3000-capacity club in Tokyo, Dj from New York was playing, dancing to legendary tracks like Good Life by Inner City, Equinox by Code 718 and Sueno Latino etc. It was a monumental event where nightclubbers, public figures, and DJs gathered. On the dance floor, it felt like time and space dissolved, and we all became one unified lifeform. Years later, I understood that experience as the essence of &#8220;Oneness.&#8221; That was when my commitment to music was made. I didn\u2019t know what I\u2019d become, but I understood the power of music, and I knew I wanted to live with it as my life\u2019s work. After that, I became completely sober. I shifted from nightlife to mornings, stopped all negtive substances, started going to the gym, and began building a healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>My DJ friends started giving me turntables and DJ mixer they didn\u2019t use anymore, and that&#8217;s how my setup came together. I began collecting vinyl, and Shibuya became my go-to. Back then, Shibuya was a mecca for DJs\u2014the number of music shops and the sheer selection was incredible. Even DJs visiting from overseas were amazed by how you could find rare gems and gentle tracks there. Those are some great stories from the &#8217;90s!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2-440x440.jpeg 440w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna2-100x100.jpeg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What is your connection with the Psytrance scene?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Oooops, Up until the previous part of my story, my musical journey was mostly tied to the Tokyo club and house music scene. But in 1997, I was invited to my first Psytrance party, and it completely blew my mind. It was this vibrant gathering of 15,000 people\u2014a mix of friends, strangers, and partygoers coming together. Before I attended, I didn\u2019t really understand the music, or why people would camp for a party, but after that experience, I got it. I discovered the chillout area, made a ton of new friends, and by the following year, I was being booked for festivals and parties one after another. The Psytrance culture\u2019s deep connection to nature and its sustainable mindset also resonated with me. After that, I found myself attending Psytrance parties almost every weekend from spring to autumn in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>In 1999, I went to Burning Man, which completely shifted my life and perspective. From then on, I began travelling the world in 2001, chasing festivals, and building connections with the global Psytrance tribe. A major turning point came during the Total Eclipse Festival in Zambia in 2001, where I spontaneously got the chance to play in the chillout area. It\u2019s funny\u2014things like that don\u2019t happen so easily nowadays! That festival was a real gateway, deepening my connection to the Psy world. Even now, I still attend every Total Eclipse Festival possible, reuniting with tribes from Japan, the USA, Europe, and Australia, although the last one in Texas wasn\u2019t quite the same vibe but was fun anyway. During my travels, I spent a lot of time with hippie friends who lived in tune with nature and embraced a New Age lifestyle. I was already somewhat aware of that way of living, but being around them, whether traveling or visiting them, inspired me even more. The magical journey continues, but I\u2019ll stop here before the story gets too long!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Artist curator, club director, DJ, vocalist, and blossoming as a composer. Was it a natural<br \/>\nprogression? Do you currently focus only on music production?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, everything evolved naturally, step by step. I was initially asked to help organize parties and manage bookings for clubs, and eventually, I became a club director. At one point in &#8217;97, a DJ I had booked didn\u2019t show up, so I stepped in\u2014and that\u2019s how I started DJing. In &#8217;99, I helped transform a failing bar into a popular ambient chillout salon. I was invited to be a vocalist there, which opened up even more opportunities to perform at different venues. The invitations kept coming, and along the way, I started learning about music production by watching other producers at work. After my performances, people would often ask if I had CDs of my music, and that\u2019s when I realized there was demand, which pushed me deeper into music creation.<\/p>\n<p>Now, my main focus is on music production also helping wellness retreat and daily life practices like meditation. Everything unfolded by trusting my gut, following my heart, and listening to the guidance I received along the way. I\u2019m deeply grateful for all the synchronicities and the people who gave me these opportunities.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>When creating music, do you follow any standard process? What kind of gear do you like to<br \/>\nuse?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019ve learned production from different producers over time, so I have my own unique process. Sometimes I start with a synth sound and layer from there, and other times I build dance music tracks traditionally, starting with the kick and bass. I began using Logic in the early days, but now I\u2019m using Ableton Live.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>How do you name your tracks?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The name usually comes when I see the final result, or I get a feeling of inspiration. If it\u2019s for an album, I search for names that resonate and create a concept around them.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Do you find a strong correlation between music, spirituality, and healing?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, very much. As I mentioned earlier, I was wounded and traumatized as a child. During my nightclub years,<br \/>\ndancing all night was my natural healing. When I later discovered dance therapy and trance dance\u2014dancing blindfolded and moving freely\u2014I realized that I had been healing myself through dancing for years. Dance and movement have healing power because they help release stuck energy and break down blockages. Our bodies store trauma, and dance music can create a hypnotic state or shift our brainwaves. When a DJ brings positive energy, they can help reprogram our subconscious toward the positive. But it\u2019s important to carefully choose the DJ, just like a shaman.<\/p>\n<p>Songs can touch our hearts and make us cry, and great singers are like shamans too. Lyrics matter because they carry energy. That\u2019s why mantras, medicine songs, and heart songs are so powerful. Music is frequency, and positive frequencies affect us. The energy of the performer also gets absorbed into the music. I believe music is a direct key to our soul, and it\u2019s important to follow our true self, not our ego. Even at parties, for me, it\u2019s equal to spiritual work! haha!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3-440x440.jpeg 440w, https:\/\/www.psybient.org\/love\/wp-content\/uploads\/RaLuna3-100x100.jpeg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Do you also see a connection between yoga and music?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Traditionally, yoga is practiced in silence, but there\u2019s Nada Yoga, mantras, and kirtans, which come from the Vedic tradition. So yes, there\u2019s definitely a connection.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>How is the ambient music scene in Ibiza these days? Are there many events or artists sharing<br \/>\nmoments of calm?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There\u2019s not much ambient music here, but there are lots of live music gatherings with traditional instruments, singing, drumming, and ethnic musical instruments. I didn\u2019t even know so many traditional skilled musicians were here until last year.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What are your near-future plans?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>No plan is my plan! I just surf the waves as they come and follow my gut when something feels right. And this is my new rule, once I make a decision, I will commit to it 100%. If I fail or things fall apart, I will just say, &#8216;So what?\u2019 No regrets.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Who is RaLuna in her daily life? As a human being.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Living as much as possible \u201cnormal \u201c human life.. ;) When I wake up, I meditate for about an hour, sometimes more, sometimes less. Then I do exercises\u2014yoga, qigong, or other types, depending on my mood. I might do voice<br \/>\ntraining or other practices. I journal, have breakfast around 10-12, and then start work on some project, whether it\u2019s music or something on the computer. I eat lunch around 3-4, which is my biggest meal of the day. Afterwards, I either keep working, go out, or rest, depending on the day. Sometimes I work until midnight, but ideally, I stop around 7 or 8 pm. Then I watch YouTube or something else, read books, prepare for bed by 9 pm, meditate for about 30 minutes, and sleep.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Would you like to deliver a message to the psybient.org listeners, readers, and believers?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For sure. I imagine most of you are younger generations\u2014young stars. I\u2019m actually the one who wants to learn from you as you\u2019re all smart, high-souled beings. But as an elder in this dimension, here\u2019s what I\u2019d say: Find your authenticity as soon as possible. Listen to yourself, not your ego mind. You are a divine soul, not just your mind. Heal yourself\u2014that\u2019s how we contribute to both ourselves and the world. It\u2019s kind of our generation\u2019s responsibility to take care of our own stuff, plus the burdens we\u2019ve inherited from ancestors and others. Let\u2019s heal ourselves and stop harming others. Let\u2019s create a positive energy spiral and elevate the collective human consciousness. I believe in you. Thank you for coming to this world.<\/p>\n<p>Before I go, I\u2019d like to share that new therapeutic ambient music is on the way! It&#8217;s designed to support relaxation, sleep, healing, and perhaps even meditation practices. Thank you so much for this opportunity, and a big thank you to everyone who took the time to read this!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Thank you so much for sharing your words and insights.
