Hi everybody Since I discovered Psychedelic Trance, there are approximately 1-2 years I have never ceased to observe what I had observed in the Hardcore scene, Industrial, Rock,...etc : there are so many styles and sub-styles that it becomes a mess to find a way and we sometimes end (or even often) to nonsensical debates about how we will appoint or not appoint, define or not define, this or that music or this or that style. So I decided there are now more than a year to create a doc in PDF form gathering all styles of Psychedelic Trance and their characteristics without making pies of texts to infinity and beyond. http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/2901243725316.jpg It will be a little more than a year (or almost, must take breaks anyway ) to skim all anglophone and francophone forums, searching the most representative artists of every style, and recovering some information and definitions stuffed with spelling mistakes on Wikipedia, clumsy repetitions, discount translations all straight out of the English version of Wikipedia passed under Google Translate, and other calamities, and to correct then to complement them. Obviously, if you find an ugly lack of agreement/spelling well hidden in the bushes, an incomplete definition, or one of your prefered style/artist thatsmasheseverythingbutreallyeverything that is not referenced, feel free to sh*t in my face please let me know, it will be corrected in the shortest possible time if need there.

This week on Psylicious Radio we open the show with Canadian DJ and label DJ for Zenon Recs and Techgnosis Records, Nokturnal. We welcome back onto the show guest mix from Bolivian producer and DJ, now based in Spain, Ametrina. Joining her is Argentinian DJ and label DJ for Andean Tribe Records, Spanish based - Horus Vision. Enjoy! NOKTURNAL [Zenon Recs | Techgnosis Recs] CA A consummate purveyor of meticulously selected and expertly woven sonic gems, the Nokturnal sound covers a wide range of psychedelica. His true skills are unleashed however when taking a trance floor from the deeper, groovier, more hypnotic soundscapes of PsyTech, PsyBreaks and Progressive Psy, all the way to the mind-bending bliss of driving, soul-vibrating Dark Progressive Psytrance. Swapping his ice climbing gear for a Gemini UMX9 mixer and a pair of Tech 12 turntables in the late 1990’s, in no time Darvin was a regular performer at some of the largest North American festivals such as Shambhala, Motion Notion and Burning Man. It was not long before he was playing peak-time sets alongside international headliners as an artist for Zenon Records at gatherings as far away as Boom Festival, Portugal, numerous clubs in Goa, India, in Byron Bay, Australia, and closer to home at both Symbiosis in California, and Eclipse Gathering in Quebec. His hit V/A compilation and DJ mix Sea of Vapours on Zenon Records was voted the #2 Progressive Psytrance compilation release of the year on Isratrance, and his DJ mix Zenonesque charted at #3 on Beatport.com out of over 3500 mixes of all genres. Currently the driving force behind PurePsyence Events (which includes the annual outdoor PurePsyence Gathering along with Night Flight club nights and streaming events), Nokturnal’s passion for rocking the Zenon groove in North America and abroad has been… relentless. In 2021 Nokturnal joined Techgnosis Records, home to some of the best PsyTech being produced today which makes it a deadly addition to the Zenon arsenal. You can find all his most current sets paired with stunning visuals on his YouTube channel. Stop by, enjoy, and subscribe.

Beat Bizarre - "Riot" 1. Beat Bizarre – Antikythera Mechanism (Original Mix) 2. Beat Bizarre – Robofresh (Original Mix) 3. Beat Bizarre – Swop (Original Mix) 4. Beat Bizarre – Digisnort (Original Mix) 5. Beat Bizarre – Tungsten (Original Mix) 6. Beat Bizarre – Amplifucked (Original Mix) Review: Following up on their spectacular album "Mukharv" from 2012, Beat Bizarre releases a 6 track album in 2013. How does it stack up? Well, to start with, I'm a huge Beat Bizarre fan. In my opinion they have the market cornered on the dark, hypnotic, and highly groovy, sexy type sound. There's some other dark progressive artists out there, but they sure don't sound groovy or sexy - examples are Hypogeo and Barby - both of those artists make excellent dark progressive, but it isn't really slick, booty-shaking type music. Beat Bizarre has this wonderful combination, and this album is no exception. Not going to do a track by track review, but the first track reminds me a lot of the style on Mukharv, whereas the others do not. Every track is solid - in general this album is a bit more minimal than Mukharv, and often not as colorful. This is serious hypnotic head-trip music. The stand out track for me so far is "Tungsten" - awesome repeating vocal sample which reminds me of a track from Koxbox's album "The Great Unknown", along with a characteristic dark and heavy vibe, but punctuated by an absolutely soaring, angelic melody that loops throughout the track - there's so much emotion and atmosphere in this track. Overall this is a stellar effort - a bit short - only 6 tracks - maybe he could have waited till he had a couple more? Along with Frequenweschel and the Sensient album though this is the highlight of 2013 progressive trance for me. 91/100

Artist: Radioactive.Cake Title: Subatomic Disco Label: Glitchy.Tonic.Records. Date: December, 2011 1 Geist (Intro) 2 Hemispherical Conflict (138 BPM) 3 Bending Rodriguez (137 BPM) 4 Dawn (137 BPM) 5 Harsh Softness (138 BPM) 6 Pure Progression (137 BPM) 7 Reality #26 (135 BPM) 8 The Dude Abides (137 BPM) 9 Onionbrain - Desert Song (Radioactive.Cake Remix) (135 BPM) "All I know is that this is different." I like cake. Who doesn't like cake? This is Robert Hundt founder of the label with I believe his 2nd release. So what's he got baking? A heaping teaspoon of darkness that's what. Imagine celebrating a funeral...with cake. There are elements of darkpsy, minimal, forest, progressive, and glitch that will sit in your stomach like a rock. Heavy effects swirl amidst basses that seem impossibly low. He seems skilled at putting sounds together that wouldn't normally gel, but it adds to the creepiness. The atmosphere is thick with with dread as the beats pulsate, leaving sonic waves in their wake. Melodies? Maybe as an afterthought. Go dig up some Vibe Tribe if you're scared. It's super trippy and very well produced sounding great on headphones. Immersing yourself in the music...like trying to dig out of your own grave. There is some filler there and some songs seem to drag on for way too long so it can be heavy to get through. I liked the 2nd half better than the first as I found it deeper with a more storytelling vibe. When you're tired of the same old stuff this is a welcome change of pace. Ever look at something dark and slimy and wonder what the f*ck it is? This is it. Second helping? You bet. Just remember to save room for cake. Free at Ektoplazm! Mdk

Argentinian progressive psytrance label Selknam Records proudly presents its debut album “Beyond Time & Space”. The name of the label comes from an extincted tribe called Selk’nam who used to inhabit Tierra del Fuego, in the far south of Chile and Argentina. The last pure Selk’nam died in the 20th century and as a tribute to their legacy, and the legacy of all ancient tribes, this compilation is named “Beyond Time & Space”. All tracks were carefully selected by Badajalash in order to make a complete trip through the psy progressive trance spectrum: black, white and the colours inbetween.
