Undergrounding

The act of connecting with the Earth through dancing barefoot to underground electronic music such as house music or techno, at an outdoor electronic music festival or gathering. These particular "roots E.D.M." genres of House and Techno use a 4/4 beat, a.k.a. "4 on the floor," the exact rhythms our ancestors produced through primitive percussion instruments created from trees and earth clay, which they used to dance barefoot upon the earth in celebration, worship, prayer and to connect with themselves, each other and Nature. Our ancestors did this for tens of thousands of years, and many indigenous communities around the world still do this today. See shamanism as well.

Derivative of the word "grounding" or "earthing" which has been trending since 2015, describing the act of standing or walking barefoot on the earth to absorb ions, connecting electrically to the earth; reducing inflammation and improving health.

*First coined/introduced by Elektrik Fantasy Festival in Miami.
I've got my Fantasy costume together and I'm ready to dance to some 4-on-the-floor house music at Elektrik Fantasy Festival, but I'm going barefoot because I'm all about the undergrounding on the sand!
