Biography
Melodic House DJ • Sound Alchemist • Mindful Movement Facilitator
Chris Colman, known artistically as Tokenoshi, is a Troy, NY-based DJ, music producer, and certified yoga teacher whose performances blend deep melodic house, organic tech grooves, and transformational energy work.
Originally from Los Angeles, Chris began his musical journey under the alias DJ Ice Cream, spinning beats during the early days of the pandemic. What started as a creative outlet quickly evolved into a calling — one that merged his love of electronic music with his passion for healing, mindfulness, and conscious community.
Rebranding as Tokenoshi marked the birth of a new movement: a project rooted in sonic alchemy, emotional storytelling through music, and soulful experiences that move both body and spirit. Drawing from his background in Reiki, yoga, and Solfeggio frequency integration, Tokenoshi creates immersive DJ sets that go beyond the dance floor — becoming journeys of release, embodiment, and elevation.
He’s performed at Burning Man, led ecstatic dance events, curated the yoga-dance fusion series Flow & Glow, and energized everything from bars and art parties to wellness retreats and downtown festivals. Whether guiding breathwork in a sunrise set or lighting up a late-night crowd with bass-heavy grooves, Tokenoshi invites each participant into a space of transformation.
“I don’t just play music — I facilitate a frequency shift. That’s the real party.” — Tokenoshi
Available for festivals, clubs, conscious raves, ecstatic dance, and private events, Tokenoshi is a rising name in the melodic house and conscious party scene — bringing West Coast flavor to Upstate New York and beyond.
