Guest Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 M.o.E News Is Good News August 2005 Hell-o! We hope this newsletter finds you healthy and happy! This is simply a short update of the latest Mistress of Evil Records activities. If you would like to periodically receive these updates directly in your inbox, send a message to: mistressofevil_23@hotmail.com with the subject line “mailing list.” After a long overdue website overhaul, we are pleased to announce the launch of the brand new, improved and beautiful Mistress of Evil website (thanks Leila!)! It has lots of updated info on releases, parties, and artist profiles. In addition, we will be adding a picture gallery & guestbook later this week. Check it out: www.mistressofevil.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tribe is an online community that allows users with similar interests to get connected.

Trauma Trance is not about dark vs. light, negative vs. positive, or any other dichotomy. It is music that tests the limits of your mind and makes you question your own sanity (and the sanity of the artists!). Step aside from the traditionally negative connotation of the word “trauma” and allow the music to alter your consciousness. This compilation sweeps the listener into a vortex of new and innovative sounds as it travels from the twisted, funky opening tracks into the dark depths of the night, testing the previous limitations of psy-trance boundaries. Eight underground artists from around the world express their own interpretation of the Trauma Trance concept. The comp. is mastered by Lawrence Hoffman, aka Chromatone (Vaporvent/Mechanik Records) ensuring high quality, professional sound. Artist listing: 1. Tsabeat & Optical Human 2. Quasar 3. Alien Mental 4. Amanda 5. Horror Place 6. Xyla 7. Ghreg on Earth 8. Mandrugorrah MOE66603- V/A Mindshare, October 2005 The Mindshare compilation will feature artists that played at the now legendary Mindshare party at Mercy Hot Springs, CA in 2003 and the second, equally epic installment, Mindshare II, at Stewart Mineral Springs, CA earlier this year. Through the music on this compilation we hope to convey the tremendous influence those two parties had on their participants ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We are also currently accepting submissions for a M.o.E Morning compilation, to be released at the end of the year. Just cause the sun comes up doesn’t mean the music has to turn fluffy or cheesy! Send us your tripped out neo-goa or funky forest trance tracks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you are in the USA this summer you won’t want to miss the freakiest, most radical festival in the world: Burning Man! Taking place in Black Rock Desert, Nevada, August 29- September 5. Art, music, radical self-expression, its freak paradise!
