Nicoleta is a person of many talents and she intertwined them in very beautiful and useful ways.
We talked about how she decided to be a DJ in the first place, it’s funny because I didn’t even know what the acronym stands for; we talked about her style and creative process, she is also a producer and composer and has her own record label Muzică Without Frontiers. By the way, she also had a gig in Chișinău, capital of Republic of Moldova wink wink.
“After DJing for 20 years, Nico [de Transilvania] released her first album ‘Be One’ in 2019, featuring traditional folkloric instruments and songs from her homeland Transylvania. Its aim is to help preserve the old traditional instruments and folk songs from Transylvania and bring them back to life on an electronic dance music platform” source:https://www.forestswithoutfrontiers.org/album. You can buy the album here, “all album sales will go towards planting trees in Transylvania“.
We then went on to talk about her journey as a yoga teacher, how it helped her when she first moved to the UK, the formation in India, the certifications and her plans for yoga in nature.
And talking about nature, she is running an amazing charity called Forests without Frontiers with the aim of reforestation and preservation of ancient forests in Carpathian Mountains, Romania with big plans of expansion in other areas/countries. Nico loves connecting the art world with nature and there are a lot of interesting creative collaborations that you can learn more about on their website. The charity is always in need for support, so head over there to make a contribution or to become an ambassador: you can enquire at info@forestswithoutfrontiers.org, check out their newly launched line of eco friendly made T-shirts and hoodies https://forestswithoutfrontiers.co.uk/.
In this episode you will also learn about Nico’s experience as a social worker; teaching life skills for homeless people; the plans for a cook book, her new projects involving one using voices of children in the UK; her experience in the production of Wild Carpathia, looking after the elders of the forests and local communities and many other inspirational stuff.
We mentioned names like Francesca Martinez, Raoul Martinez, Stephen Fry, Russel Brand and even Prince Charles.
The music in the podcast is of course from Nico’s album so that you can get a taste of it (the tracks are called Ciuleandra Feat. Fluierașii & Andra Covaleov and Trece Doru Feat. Monooka & Abstract Source).
