On this amazing episode of "The Devil Doc Talk Show" I had the pleasure of interviewing Jenny Deveau and Seth Misterka of Dynasty ElectriK. Initially formed as an electronic group in Brooklyn, the pair were initiated into a practice of shamanic sound healing in 2012, and subsequently combined this ancient wisdom with their knowledge of music to create a unique style of sound therapy—the Dynasty Electrik Crystal Sound Bath. This experience combines original electronic soundscapes intertwined with the celestial tones of singing bowls, soothing nature sounds, and ethereal vocals, guiding the listener on an inner journey of profound exploration. As resident sound healers at the renowned Mystic Journey Crystal Gallery in Venice, Dynasty Electrik had the privilege of collaborating with a number of celebrities and brands, including Usher, Rachel Platton, Marvel Studios, SnapChat, and YouTube. Their exceptional work has garnered recognition and acclaim, making appearances in esteemed publications like Forbes and High Times, as well as captivating audiences through various television shows and films.
