Haha somehow I think he may deny it. Just don't think he is into trance at all anymore. People's tastes change..a lot! and from what I have read/heard in interviews he really doesnt like where it has gone in general.

Logic bomb better than a lot of newschool
Shpongled247 replied to radi6404's topic in General Psytrance
I think.. The reason people would and do want a new Hallucinogen album would be to see how Simon had evolved, how his particular style would sound with today's production... It surely wouldn't be the exact same Hallucinogen from years ago as you seek Radi.. Heh sooooo... I'm all for it but haha -
The big topic: how do you get your music...!?
Shpongled247 replied to Anoebis's topic in General Psytrance
Well I'm living in another country atm, no permanent storage for CDs here/would have to take it with me so I am all digital atm. Usually I would first download either legally, or if I can't, then illegally. Then if its an artist/label I love and want to support I make sure to go back and buy legal version if I couldn't originally. A lot of times I want things as soon as they are released and might not have the money until pay day :/ Hence that kind of cycle. -

I don't even... Smh.. I don't really know what you are after but there are so so many artists that sound similar to those guys if that's all u want. You seem to want something very specific though.. -

Shpongled247 replied to radi6404's topic in General Psytrance
People in general, discerning people at least...appreciate creativity, ingenuity, inspired and inspiring work over copycat stuff. What would be the point of sounding exactly the same? Even the best or maybe only the best "sound alikes" bring their own flavour. Not sure how u managed to only find 5 artists u like! I suggest trawling Ektoplazm for a start and go through the best rated stuff in the genres you like -
Mmm so after that incredible debut album, that I recall listening to daily for months, Portamento seemingly dropped off my radar. Does anyone know what happened or if there is more goa coming from him?? Would be a shame if there isn't!

New Logic Bomb is anything but Goa... Ok if you are after progressive/full on sounds. Not really doing anything new/psychedelic compared to their old stuff. I like their old stuff. Also Hux Flux of course u might like. -
Myself and my partner are hoping to get to Lost Theory, Sun or Freedom festival and fractal gate... Possibly more Allll my favourite artists will be covered then! Ones I would never get to see in Australia!
-
@technosomy I'm from north bris, but lived in fortitude valley last five years. Mmm so glad to have escaped the Aussie "prog bog" atm over here I swear Australian prog borders on progressive house *yawnnn* Anyway soooon realizing my dream of hearing some goa live Mmm not sure i agree with goa being overly reliant on those certain modes but I get your point.
-
Hey franki, funny you say that! Heh. I'm from Australia where there is literally zero goa played, but just recently moved to London for the next two years. Partly in the hope of getting to actual Goa parties in Europe, Fractal Gate, Lost theory, anything filteria and Suntrip artists are playing at hopefully Can't waiiiiiiiit! It seems it definitely is growing though, in Europe firstly then spreading perhaps, with our help As for uk scene it seems quite varied here? Lots of prog/full on nights as well as dark psy parties. Will look up the goa nights u mentioned though if they are near london!

Hi guys, I'm writing an article atm for a psychedelic magazine about my favourite thing, goa trance haha. Kind of a musing about the death and rebirth of Goa/neo goa if you will. Anyway, I kind of feel like the past few years and now are almost a high point for the resurgence of Goa. With new Filteria coming, the epic re-releases of Etnica, soon Crop Circles, and stuff from Mindsphere, M-Run, Nova Fractal, all of Suntrips releases, etc etc its such a good time to be a goa fan. Do you guys agree or think differently?? I know it might never be how it was but I think it's pretty damn good now!

When you're in need of some serious mindfuck...
Shpongled247 replied to Paul Eye's topic in General Psytrance
One word: Derango But really there is a tonne of stuff and everything I classify as psychedelic should be "mindfuck".. But I know what u mean. Slow psy prog is definitely not heh... Good Goa however is also -
So after a while of going to parties etc i started to realise just how much depends on the mood or connection of the producer playing the music for me. That came after seeing some of my favourite producers bored out of their minds, not into it at all. Then I saw Hux Flux recently, never was a favourite but he had such awesome, playful, psychedelic energy behind the decks, that it is up their with my best gigs. Anyway, I know it's all about the music, or is it? And what are some of the best/most into it guys u have seen?

PharaOm & Somnesia - Santorin
Shpongled247 replied to InFecTeD_gOa's topic in Artist News and Labels announcements
Awesome! Somnesia and Pharaom are always standouts from what ive heard on va's. Mmm also I must confess I have only recently got into Nova Fractal stuff with the latest release not sure why I didn't earlier. Really really dig it. -
Um.. What's wrong with "Amithaba"/Felipe?
Shpongled247 replied to Shpongled247's topic in General Psytrance
Hey Mars thanks for clearing up. I don't know you or him but I love suntrip and jannis so I just wanted to see wtf the reason was... Possibly the wrong drugs.. Or then again the wrong mindset.. Meh. Gl to him... Hope your ok mars and thanks for everything positive u have done for the scene. -
Seriously has anyone read his Facebook rants against Filteria for no apparent reason? Is he actually serious?? He def lost a fan here.. Not that I really was.
-
The first time I was listening to this in headphones I had to take them off and get my girlfriend to listen, i was that excited.. She doesn't even know goa really, haha.. Anyway this is the best release for me in a lonnnng time, so thank you so much Draeke and anyone who helped make this happen! For me it represents a high water mark in the lifetime of goa trance..perfect. <3

Only just recently got this album and it is like a breath of fresh air. Such a unique kind of funky style of neo goa.. Reminds me a little of old Hux Flux for some reason. Just bouncy and quirky, psychedelic in that same style, really really good work! Hope to hear more along these lines if anyone can recommend similar?

Definitely one of my favourite releases of the last 6 months. Full of horsey psychedelia like only sanaton guys and maybe Procs can achieve! Will try get a review up in the next few days, it deserves one at least!

This is the best V/A released in quite a while I think! The overall quality of every single track really caught me by surprise! Hopefully i can review it soon!
