Biography

Eris Drew is a DJ, producer and trans ecstatic from the prairies of Illinois, USA. She is a recording artist on Naive Records out of Portugal and conducts the Psychedelic Rites of the Motherbeat at various locations, including Pittsburgh's Hot Mass and TUF in Seattle. Eris is a long-time resident at Chicago's Smart Bar, plays b2b sets with her partner Octo Octa, and is a DJ for the Bunker NY. She gives talks around the world on rave history and shamanism. In addition, Eris is an advocate for her people and mentors aspiring DJs and electronic musicians.

The Motherbeat was first beheld by Eris following a rave in 1994. She has helped Eris to heal, create art and find her friends for over 23 years. Motherbeat is a fundamental primordial pulsation—an archaic goddess at the gateway of the Mystery.

She is there to remind us that:

I. Ritual dance music has been here since the beginning, before historical time.

II. Each of us is made for better things than the cultural download we receive provides.

III. We can use the music as a technology to unlock our bodies, dissolve boundaries and models, and find each other.
