if your a bass-addict such as myself, hearing a skazi tune dropped at the right time on a 100k sound system at an outdoor festival is not totally vomit inducing. i heard Shiva and Skazi - by the rivers at a festival and it got the whole place jumping up and down. was actually pretty good imo.

Once upon a time i found myself at an outdoor psytrance festival and in the morning they started playing some pretty insane stuff. I heard a Psytrance version of this tune: Hyperlogic - Only me (Stimluant Dj's RMX), an old hardhouse tune, although this version was very similar, it had a definate psy-twist to it now, pulsating bassline, acid sweeps etc. if anyone knows of a psy remix of that tune, i will roll all your joints for you a month.

yeah, that is perfect. i do like full-on psytrance as well, so 145 is ok towards the end of a set, but not for too long and i kinda draw the limit at that. unless its a real stormer like Eskimo's - let it all out and im on a half-kilo of crystal meth and busy dancing like a villian. if i want to hear anything faster, ill listen to some dieselboy. 200bpm woohoo!!

Anybody know of some awsome high-energy, melodic, uplifting, morning trance stuff?? i'll give a few names of what im talking about. Exaile - Boost (or Exail - one of the tribe) Brain XL - Rodeo Driver Eskimo - let it all out Skazi and Paranormal Attack - the Bitts Talamasca - Kung fu lesson (feat DJ ananda) Silicon Sound - Shodan (awesome track) and while im here, i heard what i think was a remix of Silicon Sound - Shodan, but have no clue as to who has done a remix of that song, any help guys?

yeah dude, its pretty simple to remove it. you'll need to open up the deck itself, unscrew everything, but just remember where all the parts go. you wont need to remove much to remove the jog wheel. my mate also got loads of dust in his and he had to clean it the same way. opening the cdj's will void the warrenty though

looking at ur pics now, damn , looks like i missed a good one. stupid london parties.

yeah, nice towards the end of a set. but i like sets that start somewhere in the region of 130 and slowly edge their way thru to like high-energy 140 - 145, but seldom more than that. kinda hard to dance to 170 bpm's !!!

hehe, "let it out" is like 155, but its a rocking tune, voodoo people also very good. but eskimo gets away with it. 2 rare examples of really fast AND really good psy tunes.

i think anything over 145 is pretty fast, i personally dont like it faster than that. sounds stupid if its too fast.

after the sample, it started pumping full-on. it had a groovy bassline, but it was still pretty full on.....dude how am i supposed to describe the rest of it. i was trollied at the time.

hahaha, no dude, your not understanding me. I have never been to such a trance party, all of the psy parties in South Africa are all peace, love and fun times and all that. never seen a fist fight. But i have in commercial clubs and mainstream events. and that is my point. once all the mainstream people start arriving in hordes at our parties which we to some extent, hold sacred, all these bad vibes are gonna arrive along with them. what i described above is my dismal vision of the future of psy parties. on the other hand, i also agree that most "top of the pop" teeny boppers wont want to hang around with "those strange dreadlocked individuals" grooving in the dust . mainly because of ignorance and no idea of what the whole culture is about. the thing is once people find out about it, it will spread. the day i see skazi or someone on top of the pops i will slit my wrists.

unfortunately, and it breaks my heart to say this...it will happen. psy will become commercial. and at this point in time if that happens. it will be infected's fault more than anyone elses (sorry, im Infected-Bashing again). i can just see it. drunken fist fights and stabbings and Ego's.com at a psy festival. condisending attitudes and music that you probably have heard played on sunday afternoon radio. however.... i believe that all is not lost. underground will never die and as soon as psy parties start becoming mainstream, more and more underground parties and underground music will start popping up. and when that happens, i know where i'll be. and it wont be in a drunken fist fight because someone knocked my beer over whilst having my brain torn apart by DJ tiesto on the main dance floor.

i fully agree with you, its a state of mind you need to get into to really enjoy psychedelic music, the drugs just make it easier to get into that state of mind, but they are most definitely NOT essential. i have been to psy parties on nothing but a few drinks and had an awesome time. Its a proven fact that when you put someone (completly sober) in a chaotic environment (say for instance a 5 day festival) with no drugs but surrounded by chaos and mad people flailing their arms, and a 100k sound system pumping full on psytrance, that you are going to go insane, wether you took drugs or not, so yes, i must fully agree with you on that point. and on another apologetic matter...i regret to inform that i need to apologise for my harshness towards infected's new single, cities of the future. i dont think i was ready for such a harsh change and it shocked me, i ripped the cd out of my discman and threw it across the room in disgust. however, i recently picked it up from the floor where it had been for 4 days, smoked a "cigarette" and had another listen.....and dare i say it........its not that bad. the violet vision rmx is actually...*shock, horror* very good. but i guess i have to accept it for what it is, electro, and not psy. so apologies for my harsh comments earlier. it seems after a few listens, its sort of grows on you a bit.

i think a decent dj set needs a good balance of different styles, wether it starts with dubby, dnb stlye psy, then slow progressive, and ending off with some killer fullon stuff. its all about good balance. even the dj is playing good full on. i dont want to hear psycho-full on for 6 hours straight or whatever. its all about balance. throw in a madonna tune for all i care, might surprise the crowd.

in the colum where our avatar pic is there is a little blue bar that says: "warn" and then a percentage symbol. whats this all about?

yeah, just look at infected mushroom.

its like certain sounds in psychedelic music sound great when your tripping, how do you know that sounds great if you've never tripped? it would be like a blind man painting the mona lisa. oh thats a crap analogy but you know what i mean.

i agree, but i do believe to understand what "psychedelic" is, you have to ,at least once, have tried some kind of hallucinogen. the music is written for people with heads full of acid. how can you write something you have never experienced.

hehe, yeah, i will try accept that they wont be coming back. oh well. whats on psyshops recommended section? exail's new cd? ill have that thank you! i will say the last song on infected's new album is very good. i cant deny it. but im not forking out 10 quid for 1 song. thank you soulseek, you made having the cd, worth what i payed for it.

personal really good dark psytrance tunes i liked: Psychotic Mirco - Frankenstein Skazi and Shiva - by the rivers Manduya (might be spelt wrong) - Ketamine rmx Exaile - give head biotonic - 3rd link (not ultra dark, but good) Skazi and Ami (could be Omi) - never again

i heard that infected mushroom never really did any drugs.

well done guys, this forum rocks. dunno why u didnt do this earlier. and no more annoying little sh1ts posting dodgy gay porn. whohoo.

ok, stretched is the only reason for it gettting 2/10, its actually pretty well put together to be honest. but it doesnt make it a good album. the styles are too varied. you will have to excuse my harshness. i too was once an infected mushroom fan, they have just gone off at a tangent and obviously wont be coming back. i act out of grief.

there was this other tune i heard at a festival once, i think it was tortured brain playing, but then again maybe not. they started their set with this chick starting to laugh. no other sounds at all. just this chick laughing, and laughing, and laughing. for like 2 - 3 minutes at least. eventually she is basically screaming with laughter (so is everyone else on the dancefloor by now). would anyone know the name of this track? or maybe it was just a sound sample they played before mixing a tune in. if anyone knows the name of this tune, that would be great. cheers.

oh common guys, you guys know like every single track ever, why dont you know this one????!?!??!?! please, im dying.....im......dying........
