The Mystical Experieces album by The Infinty Project and The Mystery Of The Yeti albums is for me some of the best releases ever... Pure classics I will never get tired of... Just my opinion...

I guess Simon is a little Mozart for us psytrance listeners... Not really underrated in this scene, but maybe underrated compared to other music styles... A guy with HUGE creativity, and this creativity compared with good production/equipment knowledge=many masterpieces... This is where many artists go wrong I think... Either they have the production knowledge and no creativity, or they have a lot of creativity and no production knowledge... I guess Simon is one of the few who manage both very well... Anyway, it's funny to see that 90% of the topics here is about this man...

Lucky people!!! I wish I was there and saw the good old Green Nuns... Can someone please force them to go back to the studio together and start producing this fantastic music again???

I guess you could check out the Samothraki DVD too...: http://www.psyshop.com/shop/DVDs/oct/oct2dv001.html Brings me some good memories from the three years of paradise on the magical island (if you look away from the police raid the last year)...

Relase date is not decided yet, but we are planning everything these days. Hopefully, we will get it out in a couple of months... First on the schedule is the new album by Elysium, under the alias Wombat Music... A fantastic album with many different styles... But, now we are definately far off topic, and this info doesn't deserve to be under a "psychill sucks" topic... Now we can go back to the negative vibes again...

Glad you like that style too... Polyploid is Chris Gannon: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Chris+Gannon who has been away "from the scene" for a few years. I will post more info and sound samples when it is closer to release date... And about Deviant Electronics... I am a HUGE FAN too... I have been in touch with him about releasing music on Chill Tribe too, something that actually might happen... But, at the moment, he has just become a father, and is very busy making music for computer games... So, we will see... Fingers crossed...!!

I guess I should contact him and try to encourage him to get going again then... This method has worked before in several cases (see old school artists on Chill Tribe)...

Thanks Shaft! Anyway, with Chill Tribe, I try to present many different kinds of Chill, not only psy related stuff... That's why I have brought Circular in (Biosphere alike ambient), Saafi Brothers (deep, hypnotic ambient), Adhah Shaikh, Makyo etc. (tribal chill), Entheogenic (psychill?), etc... I will also release an album by Polyploid, which is a break beat album (sort of like Deviant Electronics). Deviant Electronics is also participating on one of the tracks on this album. The next compilation on Chill Tribe, will have rock influences (Nick Taylor, the Prana/Snake Thing guy), dark vibes (Kris Kylven, the UX/Syb-Unity Nettwerk guy), idm chill (bluetech), housy chill (Digital Mystery Tour), atmospheric chill (Robert Leiner, the Source Experience guy) etc... With other words, VARIATION. Something those who only manage to like one style, probably will disslike...

Well, to be honest, I am of the opinion that electronic music will never again become as good as it was in 1994 - 1996, so I think many genres has taken bad directions... I'm sure some psy chill artists should develope their sound, but still I see it a bit unfair to put ALL psy chill under one here... For example on Relaxed Journeys, you have ten different artists, with ten different styles of ambient/psychill/tribal etc. Still, all of them sound like Entheogenic to some of you? Anyway, I find the word psychill very stupid. It doesn't say anything about the style... Who decides what is psychill?? Is Saafi Brothers psychill just because they released their music on a psytrance label back in the days??

Exactly. You are right that some psy chill artists have stagnated... But, I think the same goes for many other genres... That the other genres get more attention is ok for me, but is that a good enough reason to talk shit about ALL psy chill in general? THAT, is what's bothering me here...

I have to agree here.... Process is among my favourite producers of groundbreaking psytrance... It's been a few years now since we got anything from him... Hope he will be back soon... The last release I know he was involved in, was a jazz album (Mystery School Ensemble, 2003 http://www.discogs.com/release/367399

"I'm cool because I am listening to something different from you. I have finally grown up. The music I listen to is better than your music bla bla bla". The above sentences is how I translated the headline of this forum topic... I think the people in this discussion can be divided into two kinds of people: THE OPEN MINDED music listeners and THE NARROW MINDED music listeners... Personally, I have listened to other kinds of electronic music/deep ambient music long before I listened to anything related to psy. Here in Norway, we have a good ambient artist called Biosphere, who relesed an album allready in 1991. Something that made me start listening to electronic music in the first place... By the years, I have listened to all kinds of electronic music, and I like many different kinds of music... For example Ulrich Schnauss who was mentioned here. He makes good music, but nothing "NEW" anymore... If you have heard a couple of Schanuss tracks, you will recognise the rest... About Trentemøller... Sure, he makes good music too, but nothing really groundbreaking/never done before... Trentemøller is good, but for sure THE BIG HYPE this year by music magazines etc worldwide... What's funny to see here, is that some of you on this forum has totally swallowed this media hype, and see it as something totally groundbreaking/never done before thing... That tells me how little you know about electronic music... Been stuck in a bubble of Shpongle the last ten years??? What always surprise me here on this forum or other places where "psy people" hang out, is how little open minded people are... Either, WE ONLY LIKE SHPONGLE or it's: NOW I ONLY LIKE TRENTEMØLLER/TO HELL WITH THE REST... Childish statements that really shows clearly how little openminded you are about music in general... Some of us manage to appreciate different kinds of music. I listen to beautiful psychill WHEN I AM IN THE MOOD FOR IT! I believe my demand for different kinds of music comes with the mood and place I am in... I can listen to everything from jazz to rough, minimal techno. Something some of you obviously don't handle at all... Right now, I'm listening to Pete namlook (something I have done for over ten years now). Still I don't throw my beautuful psy chill in the garbage... I mean, some of namlooks productions are extremly simple, and not that interesting. Still, I respect what he does... What comes out of Fax (the ideas) these days, is all done hundreds of times before... I even saw my releases on Chill Tribe Records is mentioned here. And I totally understand it. The two compilations has several different kinds of chill on them (=too much to handle for someone who only likes Trentemøller). From deep ambient/IDM (Circular/Saafi Brothers), to tribal/ethnic chill (Adham Shaikh(Makyo), to dubby Ott like soundscapes (jong) etc. It's obvious that some people just can't handel more than one style... But it's freedom of speach, and you can blame psychill as much as you want, but in the end, you are the narrow minded. Maybe one day you can appreciate more styles of music. That's when you are grown up in my opinion.... PKS (WHO DOESN'T LET SOME MEDIA HYPE BRAINWASH MY MUSIC TASTE....) Congratulations to Pavel for discoverring other kinds of music, 15 YEARS AFTER some of us....

It's allready back in psyshop... http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/ctr/ctr1cd002.html
