“Global Beats and Exotic Grooves.
Music from around the globe without boundaries in style or origin.”


DJ Polyesta @ Lowlands 2008Esta Goossens is DJ Polyesta.
She plays an adventurous, danceable mix of world music, dance, tribal, reggae and any music she fancies. “I don’t like borders. Borders between styles in music, borders of states, borders between people. It is my wish to cross borders and to take people on a journey around the world.”

Esta’s love for travelling and exploring different cultures is reflected in her music choice. Spicy beats from India, mellow hiphop from Cuba, funky Afrobeats, heart moving Nu-Gypsy, Latin grooves, dance music from the Middle East or the Balkan, anything that moves body and soul.

DJ Polyesta @ hill top in Vagator, GoaPolyesta plays mostly at dance parties, but also loves to do a chill-out or lounge set. “There is so much great music out there. Not all is danceable. But I really feel like sharing those beautiful sounds. The body might not be moving to those mellow tracks but the soul is.”

If the occasion calls for it Polyesta focuses on one region. At Lowlands festival 2008 she played an Eastern Vibes set, taking people to India, the Middle east and North Africa. Polyesta loves to fire up a dance floor with Balkan Beats and Klezmer Grooves. Polyesta is resident DJ for Ruigoord and Cosmic Combination.
