Dust of Soul – Your Soul Has a Song

Dust of Soul blends music and frequency to awaken healing, creativity, and connection through personalized Soul Songs. Founded by Saskia Stäuble (Singing Psychic Medium) and Michael Angeles (Piano Medium), the duo channels intuitive music tuned to 432 Hz — the frequency of harmony — creating transformative experiences that resonate with the soul.

After Saskia’s miraculous recovery from a paralyzing stroke through her own voice, she and Michael began channeling music that unlocks the soul’s messages. Their Soul Song Journeys combine live performance, energy healing, and intuitive guidance, helping individuals align with their higher purpose.

Over 13 years, Dust of Soul has performed across the US, Europe, Africa, and Asia, including the United Nations International Day of Peace in Times Square, MTV Unplugged, and a royal concert in Oman. Their work has been honored with awards for originality, humanitarian impact, and international cultural exchange.
