The source of the track has been identified. It's from a John Fleming mix, and it's labelled as an Astral Projection track called Structural Schematics (starts at 52.07). A Fleming remix of Mahadeva was released back in 2004 and he's one of the most well known trance djs, so it's not unlikely that he had access to unreleased AP material.

You seriously need to rebrand your label, Goapsyrecords, it's hard to imagine a more generic name. On Spotify the album you're promoting is called DarkPsy Journey in Multiverses (Psytrance experience). Sorry, judging by the name of your label and the name of the album, I would asume this is 100 % generic and soulless music.

In this Etnica live set, there are two remixes of old time classic: Technossomy's Elektron Bender och Sheyba's Trance Africa Express. It made me dream that Etnica would release a Goa Classics Remixed album just as Astral Projection did. What old time classics do you think would be suitable for an Etnica treatment? Here are some suggestions from me: Chakra - Hallucinator Kailash - Higher MFG - Shape the Future Power Source - Skywalker Slinky Wizard - Funkus Munkus (already sounds like it could be an Etnica track) Witchcraft - Whale

This one was new to me, a Pleiadians remix of Elektron Bender from 2018:

Of course, Domestic & Space Cat remixed the remix, but the Shamanix track is still from 1995.

Ah, the good old days! I was a regular on that mailing list. I vaguely remember the conversation you're referring to, and I definitely remember Simon's presence. I thought I had saved all mails from that era, but it seems I can't find any mails from Simon. No results on whiningtrancer@yahoo.com, and as far as I can recall he used to sign his emails with "Si", but no luck. It would be excellent if we could find that e-mail. This is important background information. Seems like I only have e-mails from 2006 and onwards. Probably lost the rest when I switched to gmail. 😞 @ukiro, do you have a complete 604 mailing list archive?

Now I hear what you're getting at! This definitely has more of an AP vibe than his latest album. Let's hope he replies back to you. Even a negative reply is positive when trying to identify an unknown track. 🙂

Are you sure about that? The only released Gumbo track is The Quickening and it sounds nothing like Shamanix. Google returns nothing relevant. I've asked both ChatGPT and Bard and neither are aware of a track called "'Song of the Shaman' or 'Dance of the Shaman' or some shit." I thought I knew all Posford tracks so I'm naturally curious about this track.

Filteria's remix of Crop Circles mighty Lunar Civilization:

Roy Sasons remix, or as he calls it, re:edit of Reflectea's Creatures

His current sound is too intense, I don't think it aligns with the mystery unreleased track. I'm not familiar with Skarma's older output, but I listened to the album you suggested and it lacks melody, and what's special about this unreleased track is the melody.

A new Hallucinogen track and zero replies. This forum is pretty much dead.

I agree 0:50-2:21 doesn't sound like typical AP, but the rest could be AP. I've sent a message to Avi Nissim @ FB and asked him about the track. Not expecting a reply, but worth a try.

Hallucinogen & Supermodule - Kaleidosonic. I just love Simon's basslines. Release date is today, but it's neither available on Spotify nor Soundcloud. ...and now it's been published at Youtube:

It's a great track, but I doubt it's an Astral Projection track from 2003. It's not reminiscent of their sound back then. If it is a 20 year old AP track I think we should have heard it in their live sets. I could be of their newer tracks, at least I'm hoping it is. Hopefully that talked about upcoming album will be released, and this track will be on it. Or maybe it has been reworked into another track. I'm just guessing, nevertheless, great track!

How about 27 years? Pretty much anything old compared to anything new will have deeper bassline and a more pronounced kick drum.

I've made the playlist public in case anyone wants to follow it.

I was planning on creating a post just like yours. 🙂 Lunarave is the best thing to happen to psytrance in many years, his sound is actually psychedelic and there are some minor melodies sprinkled all over. His sound and technique has really developed over the years. I personally prefer his current sound (think Transmigration album and onward) over this older tracks. I've been following him for a couple of years and I have playlist with what I consider to be his best tracks: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/14aSgFTOuBrfavqh5iVleO?si=61c08f8a4fb34b25&pt=ae5f74c83c23e4a19d3997b9d2b1e7a8

Has anyone read this thesis / book about race and psychedelic trance? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1186918.Psychedelic_White

I visit once a week and I try to reply and create new topics when ever I have something to contribute.

I just stumbled over this excellent banger: It's credited as being a Darshan track from 1998, but it's not a released Darshan track. He was very popular back in the day so I doubt a banger such as this one would remain unreleased. Especially since both DAT Records, Suntrip Records and Anjuna Records are on a mission to dig up unreleased rare tracks. The track doesn't sound like his known released tracks from that era. Maybe it's something (unreleased?) by ECT, Microdome or Psychogenetic Soundforce. Anyway, excellent track! Can anyone identify it? I would love to see it properly released and with better sound quality.

The break at 3.18, the gradual build up and then the explosion at 3.58. Mind blowing every time. It's what psytrance is all about.

Well, Duvdev and Michele Adamson were involved in that attempt, and I want something with only Posford and Aizen. 🙂

Did you just enter a prompt for a psytrance track thinking psynews.org is a psy music making AI? In case it works, here are some prompts from me: Make a psytrance track that sounds like it was made by Simon Posford and Erez Aizen around year 2000. No inspiration from Duvdev is allowed. Make a psytrance track that sounds like it was made by Hux Flux and Process around year 2000. Make a new Shpongle album inspired by the Carnival of Peculiarities EP.

My interest is psychedelic music. Sometimes it happens to align with neogoa and psytrance, but these days I mostly listen to good music from other genres. A handful of releases from the trance scene caught my attention in 2022: I'm usually not a fan of Youth's work, but he did good in 2022. Oh, and I got in to Ovnimoon's music. Really like it. My best psychedelic downtempo discoveries from non psy labels are: I really see no reason to limit yourself to the traditional psy downtempo labels, there's lots of great psy music out there. Emancipator and Palladin are really amazing. For more uptempo music, last years best discovery was polish Rysy Amelie Lens is still the best Follow her mixes and playlists and you'll discover lots of great stuff. Here are my best banging "melodic" techno discoveries from last year: Joris Voorn also did good in 2002. His best mix being this one: Oh, and Charlotte De Witte is always good https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=charlotte+de+2022
