I quite like Gamemaster, its taken the acid from Dreams and transformed it into this marvellous breakdown, though Dreams is still slightly better.

Crop Circles - Tetrahedron Darshan - Awakening Oforia - Delirious Pigs in Space - Pigs in Space Tim Schuldt - Pretty Poison for example Koxbox - Dragon Tales Battle of the Future Buddhas - Twin Sharkfins is dark forest I second MFG - Project Genesis excellent! Quirk - Robatised Try Nick Taylor's Rhythmystec alias, you might like it. Har-el Prussky - Pagan Moon Child esp the track Sleepwalker

Balil - Parasight maybe?

K.U.R.O./Charm/Perfect Rainbow - esp Kuro - Zoa, Charm - Brain Structure, Perfect Rainbow - Yugi EP Zen Paradox - The Light at the End EP Paradise Connection Discography 1 album + 1 EP Electric Universe - One Love all melodic beautiful music

Amazing! Congratulations! And I'm jealous ofcourse.

I thought it was rather surrealist, like the last scene in the play with weird costumes, the old building, the mist etc...the whole feel of the move basically.

Evol Intent - Era of Diversion (DnB) Prodigy - Music for the Jilted Generation Venetian Snares - My Downfall (Original Soundtrack) DJ Shadow - Endtroducing 4Hero - Parallel Universe Aglaia - 3 Organic Experiences Global Communication - 76:14 FSOL - Dead Cities VA - Artificial Intelligence II Plastikman - Sheet One

+1 Its all mumbo jumbo! I listen to goa/psy for the music. I think the samples of McKenna for example are used because they best complement the music and what you're feeling when you listen to the music.

Enya - Storms in Africa I & II

I'd say Hardstep/Darkstep mixed with Space Tribe like full-on or really fast Furious like sounds. Wicked broken bass, relentless drumloops and crazy, twisted psy sounds can go to the next level. I've tried to find really hard, fast Psy DnB but whatever I'd heard is definitely more on the morning, uplifting side. Upbeats does come close to this sound such as this release Smash Planet Earth http://www.discogs.com/Upbeats-The-Evol-In...rth/master/7481 Then Bad Company - Fill Me In Also try out the title track from Evol Intent's Era of Diversion album at the 1:45 mark there are some crazy, squelchy, driving acid sounds. From the same album, The Awkward Rhythm of Dance is also spacey stuff. Ofcourse there's Nam Shub of Enki, I liked this track a lot. Nam Shub of Enki meets Kiki.ILL - _Clickher The track Breach by BSE is a beautiful melodic track. Raiden - Fallin also merits a listen. If you liked the tracks above, try out the Mixmag mix, John B - Trance 'n' Bass.

Good psy is out there, its just harder to find because there are so many mediocre releases, but its out there for sure

There are already discussions on other trance, just search... Hard Trance Regular Trance I've posted some good tracks on both topics are quite spacey and trippy

Tried Pi? Its crazy trippy and at times weird and strange.

To be honest, that sounds like some mix of techo/electro/hard dance but not psy.

Maybe this is a little late, but imo this track is definitely release worthy, better than most psy out there Buzzman, try and get it into a compilation, atleast one of those free netlabel releases?

Sorry to hear that Its always great to have advice from artists who have been there and done that.

Very gory.

Umm...that way you could argue that nothing is futuristic at all, because obviously anything written by any author has to be derived from what they have seen/experienced. I suppose the only way anyone could write anything that would be futuristic by your definition would be to build a time machine, go a 1000 years into the future, note down everything and come back and write about it

Forest Tribal (Sub?)styles like Nizhonot and Suomi could help people looking for really specific recommendations. P.S. Someone once said MEEO was glitch.

I think thats simplying it a bit. Dune and Foundation are set thousands of years into the future. Positronics, Bene Gessirit, Three Laws of Robotics, the Spice etc... are imho quite far removed from today's world. If you want a real peek into the future, I mean very realistic, I really recommend the Mars Trilogy. Its highly under-rated and under-read if you ask me.

Asimov's First and Second Galactic series are all about society and have some psychological themes, but the style of his prose is very dry and unadorned. So it maybe about humans and emotions but it is not written in an emotional way. For a plot about humans and human character you should try the Mars Trilogy. It follows several main characters and their thoughts from beginning to end. Dune, I agree could be fairly abstract at times. I love Fantasy too

The thing is, I haven't found a DnB track with a heavy trippy dose of Psy/Acid elements. I would love to hear any. When I was mixing the sounds, I had to mix acid over the drum and bass. I couldn't overemphasize the bass because it would drown out the acid, so I turned it down a bit. This is why the bass is not the heavy, monster bass you hear in hard DnB tracks. Its just that the volume is lower. However it is still there and in the second half of the track 4:30 onwards you can hear it quite clearly As for FX, again with having drum and bass and a heavy-ish dose of acid I felt there wasn't that much "acoustic space" for any/more FX. It is just loops but whatever I've heard of DnB is a bit like that, loops... You really ought to listen to atleast these 2 Acid Break tracks. They are as trippy as any Psy/Goa track out there. Fatboy Slim - Acid 8000 Josh Wink - Higher State of Consciousness Yeah its an irregular 3x4 beat with a irregular snare pattern on top of it as shown. Its just experimentation on my part, and I like the way it came off so I'm leaving it on for the moment. The 3:35 loop was hastily inserted by me when Jikkentekki pointed out that the track was dragging in the middle =p Maybe he right about getting something 100 times better after dumping a loop going nowhere so given a bit of time I'll be putting more effort in finding an appropriate synth/pattern for the loop. Its not too bad sounding though. At 4:10 I fixed the loop, thanks for pointing that out Try getting your hands on some of the harder DnB, its crazy stuff for example.... Counterstrike - Maniac Styles of Beyond - Subculture (Upbeats Mix) The Militia - You and I Know Noisia - Stigma Evol Intent - Era of Diversion - this has some hard squealing acidish sounds. I was actually trying to acid for an acid sound somewhat like this. Hard, driving as if were being forced through a narrow hole at high pressure or something so its like chauauauaua.... DnB and Acid/Psy would be a mad combination, if someone did it properly :posford:

Yeah, I don't get a lot of his stuff, like off the top of my head there is this one track called Bucephalus Bouncing ball or something which sounds like a ball bouncing....and it has seemingly random sounds I'm not sure whats so great about Windowlicker either. More listening required....

This is a psy forum so the first Aphex track I would recommend is Didgeridoo. Mind blowing, crazy didgeridoo sounds with super fast claps and whatnot. Quite trippy.

The Brothers Karamazov is great. Thats his only book I've read though.
