MattMan Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 What are the great names out there? And why is only Israel, Sweden, Great Britain and France really the only ones that do it right? Quote
Ormion Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 There are quite a few artists from USA the last years. Bluetech and oCeLoT are the most known. Penta too (although he is half Russian too or something). The reason USA doesn't produce more psy? Different countries, different cultures I guess. Quote
p(sy)ayam Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 they produce shit load of hip hop and DnB though Quote
Symphoid Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 they produce shit load of hip hop and DnB though True and gangsta psy. Quote
Rotwang Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Mubali, Androcell, Quasar spring to mind. I think Alien Mental is based in America though he's originally from India. And Goa Gil (other way round). There's also Billy and Per of course. Quote
Rotwang Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 There's a fair few US record labels too, off the top of my head I can think of Geomagnetic, Kagdila and Psybertribe - you can probably come up with more examples of American artists by looking at their back catalogues. Mr. Rogers is another example. Quote
Androcell Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 What are the great names out there? And why is only Israel, Sweden, Great Britain and France really the only ones that do it right? oh yeah, androcell/distant system He asked "what are the great names" guys, , not the crap names. Probably the most commercial US name for this scene is Bluetech. Evan Bluetech Marc :drama: His real name is Evan Bartholomew. Bluetech and Evan Marc are just pseudonyms for his music. Quote

Melancholyman Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I can clearly see how IM's new album is going to hit the US big time, commercializing and normalizing psy for a mainstream US market. Lovely... Quote
Ormion Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I can clearly see how IM's new album is going to hit the US big time, commercializing and normalizing psy for a mainstream US market. Lovely... But IM are not psy. Quote
murphythecat Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 okay, but mostly all the rock/ alternative comes from USA, different culture, here in america (canada), folk and alternative are really big! trance is not really known, more techno and house Quote
p(sy)ayam Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Can't afford it. i'm not sure how it works for you guys but i feel evan's album release tour (at least in so cal, the one that i went to) was very successful and he sold many CDs (venue was packed). anyhow, i can't wait for your new album(s) :posford: Quote
murphythecat Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 you're definitely there, sir :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: BTW, why don't you play in sunny california sometime?! what do you mean by commercial??? the more known or the gut who makes the music to be more known??????? Quote
murphythecat Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 But IM are not psy.what r they? its still kinda psy Quote

His real name is Evan Bartholomew. Bluetech and Evan Marc are just pseudonyms for his music. and probably the best from US Quote
Androcell Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 what do you mean by commercial??? the more known or the gut who makes the music to be more known??????? Hold on I'm still following your trail of question marks.... Ok, what I meant was he has a booking agent who is continually trying to get him gigs and is on a label that loves to shove promotion down your throat so to me that makes him more commercial.. You're reacting like this is a "bad" thing. You're average "psy" scene promoter probably can't afford him anymore. I remember when I inquired to him last year "personally" as a friend about booknig him for a chillout festival I have been considering trying to organize in the US and he referred me to his "agent". He didn't even want to personally work something out... maybe becuase it's a breech of terms with his agent. I HAD to go through his commercial booking agent if I wanted him to even be remotely interested. So just relax, guy, and breathe a little. Your favorite artist in the world isn't "selling out" he's "cashing in" and I can respect that but figured you should have some real details. Happy? :drama: Quote
p(sy)ayam Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 our poor cat is on coke!!!! he's gonna reply to you in 10 contradicting posts now Quote

Happy? :drama: well that suprise me, he didnt even wanted to talk to you? but at least he's still making good music, will it last?!? im so happy now! thank you so much! but beside that, thanks a lot for distant system an incredible album, when are you planning to release another one? is there some song already made...

Androcell Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 but at least he's still making good music, will it last?!? Blessed be that thing called subjectivity. but beside that, thanks a lot for distant system an incredible album, when are you planning to release another one? is there some song already made... Working on the third Androcell album and a concept compilation titled "Vital Signs" featuring 4 new Androcell tracks (2 are remixes of Neurosomatic Circuit and Atmos-spheres from the Efflorescence album) and 4 "commissioned" tracks by some well-respected and accomplished artists. By commissioned I mean I assigned them specific track titles/themes they were each contracted to write custom music for. I'm sure many of you will be pretty happy with the "roster". This is not just another compilation of collected and licensed tracks. This is more like a concept / collaboration project that I conceived. Will get around to another Distant System album in 2010. I don't rush my music just so I can "play it out". Quote
