About Me

Fire Performer theparaffinalien.com

From a star system far, far away comes Alan Star. His mission, here on earth ... to remember where he has come from and why he is here, but will he remember in time !? Using light and sound as his medium, and with help of the star people, he attempts to unravel the riddle of the infinite and invites you to join him on a magical journey, from a world far away ... here and now.

History
As part of The Flaming Butterflies , I travelled with this show from India and South East Asia, to Europe and North America from 1995 - 2005. Performing and mixing music for the show over the years has also led me to dj as well and I have also recently been co-writing music as part of Indijika .

As well as performing I have been involved in producing outdoor music events and promoting artists in Western Australia. Event's I have been involved with include Earthdance for the past few years with the Namaska production crew and many doof's/outdoor dance music events, some being my own productions, promoting artists such as Ganga Giri , some as co-productions and some with the Mad Monkey Society .

As a Dj I play a fusion of organic sounds and progressive electronic, in a range of tempo's and styles from ambient chill out through to tribal trance.

I am currently focused on my solo fire performance and am available with this show for all sorts of festivals/events.
