Today I discovered psychedelic trance... It's by far the trippiest, most stoneriest music I've heard yet. Check out Infected Mushroom, X-Dream, Astrix, GMS, etc. if you want somethin' nice to listen to after your next smoke. Enjoy.
You live in the bay and you just discovered it!!! You know how many DeeJ's we have comin outta the bay! Damnit, where were you dureing the New Years raves in Frisco??? LoL, well, at least you found it now... We also have lots of weed oriented rap music and alternative/punk stuff... ~Dub PS. I know! I don't technically live in the Bay anymore, but it's still my home! F#*K SO-Cal! The weed here has nothing on nor cal weed! Nothing. But it's not bad.
Ha, yeah I was caught up goin' to punk venues; it was one of my friends who turned me on to the trance, hope to go hit up some raves asap. Ya, last night I smoked a blunt of some club shit then sat in complete darkness listening to some X-Dream and Infected Mushroom... that shit was so intense... I've done psychedelics quite a few times and I have to say this definately rivaled some of those trips... It was so intense I had to take breaks from listening to it... Can't wait 'til tonight though, picked up a couple thizz and an 8th of some p-cubes. :tongue:
Dude, infected mushroom are AWESOME. I went to one of their gigs a couple of years ago. it was fucking cool. What's your favourite song by them? I LOVE Converting Vegetarians.
I'm a long time listener and occasional dj at forest parties/squats. The artists you listed made some good stuff in the past but personally I don't like the direction they've taken (I'm looking especially at you X-Dream and Inf Mush), too 'ravey' and not psychedelic enough, shitty vocals etc etc. My favourite artists at the moment in no particular order: O.O.O.D. - fullon psy Sensient - dark prog psy Mantrix - fullon psy Electrypnose - darkpsy Psymmetrix - dark full on RAM - dark tekky psy Loopus in Fabula - fat old ladies Ticon - prog Mood Deluxe - psy meets nu skool breaks Koxbox - fullon Voice of Cod - full on Bigwigs -tekky prog Prometheus - psychedelic Bitmonx & Fabio - prog All these are floating my boat in one way or another at the minute. If you tell me which artists/styles stand out to you from there I can recommend you more music/labels! I thought the psytrance scene in the states was meant to be really small apart from a couple of festivals like Gaian Mind and some californian crews as well. You've probably heard of the big european parties like Voov, Boom, Ozora, Samothraki (RIP) etc etc, the crowds are always really international but there's hardly ever many americans. Why don't some of you guys come partying here this summer!? hehe Peace
I'll have to check that one out; the favorites from the ones I've heard are Twisted, Cat on Mushrooms, and this other one I can't remember the name of.. dammit.
SWEET I'm gonna check all those out =D I haven't heard many artists but from the ones I have I really like X-Dream, GMS, Astral Projection, DJ Tiesto, Astrix, and notably the older stuff from Infected Mushroom, any reccomendations? I am actually traveling to Europe with my gf this summer so I'll definately check those out.
