great! thanks Mars

I listen to it on my PC and on my cellphone who has a media player. I have an ipod, but its accu is too low and I'm too lazy to order a new battery... And apart from not having that many digital releases anyway, I do not organize my collection. Some have tags, some have none, some are mislabeled, I don't care. I know what song is what and I'm the only one who should listen to those tunes, so it doesn't matter.

you know, during all the time they could just shit on it and make another one, a second one ... and release the stuff of this one once the legal issues have been cleared. S-Range did it. The release of Another Theory was corrupted by the album having leaked, so he makes a third one ... which will be out soon according to the news. And funnily enough, that aforementioned release should have been in the same year as Astral were about to release their new one initially, as far as I remember. So he is now releasing his second new one and Astral do ... nothing?! We'll see who will be better off here. I'll stay tuned.

a really good question! Anybody knows when it will be out finally?

hey, you got me too... but that was a really nice and creative try (track names ftw) ... haven't been april fool'd yesterday anyway, so I'm pleased that it happens in such a nice way

some really good ones so far... I add:

One of the most intense fullon traks I can think of was Space Buddha - Acid Prophecy... here it is: http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUARrb2i0yM the calm beginning doesn't fit ... but it's really energetic ... at 4:00 for example...

I agree on this. And on Beatport it's even legal to call it a new release because the tracks haven't been released on mp3 (legally) before! Just be careful ... and don't be stupid and buy stuff you already own. If you can't remember, it's really your own fault. But it's really interesting to hear what this Thomas Vitali guy is doing... This is a huge chunk of labels practically under one person. Even Synergetic ... I thought Acan owned it. Hmmm ... it explains a lot... Any more info or anything? Besides Psynina. I'm interested in this.

interesting debate... In my opinion that what people nowadays refer to as psyprog could be called Progressive Trance and not Progressive Psy-trance ... I'd have nothing against that In fact I'm calling it like that myself already. But even if everybody would do that, where would the line to be drawn? There are releases which are psychedelic and progressive aswell - ergo real Progressive Psytrance. What to do with them? Plus, if we would take out the "Psy-" syllable entirely, the term would probably be too neutral ... the connection to the psy scene, where this music not only originates, but still has a not to be denied close connection to, gets lost that way IMO. In addition to that, the genre definitions are fixed already in so many heads. Even though this forum is rather at the centre of the scene and probably even could initiate such a change, you'd still have lots of confusion...

I wouldn't say that. First it saves bandwith for the direct downloads in the net, second you might make the stuff accessible for more people. I agree on the rest though ... however, I'd always include release notes and refer to the correct artist of the work ... and of course no altering. If you go this way, I doubt it big time if anybody will sue or be angry at you, after all it's promotion what you're doing and it's free works anyway...

Okay, let me answer this for me personally. -How do you feel when you listen to psytrance? Excited, happy and mostly damn awesome, when it's good stuff. When sitting somewhere, I tap my feet or nod my head slightly. Also happens in the subway... When I'm running to it, then I feel even more awesome! The music generally puts me into a state of activity. Positivity. I'm excited, do things faster (housework), walk faster on the streets, am happier and more motivated to do things. It's like a magic potion, only that it works aural. I think it's because of the brainwaves ... my brain tends to think in circles, uncontrollably, various and not focused, but when the rhythm of the sound comes in, it all sort of shifts into place better and the effects are interesting. At the moment I have to give a lot of power in my life ... I have job, girlfriend, sports, friends and family and I think I would not have had the energy to bring this all so well together without psy (well, progressive to be precise). Even though I can work without psy (as I have proven on various travels where I stayed abstinent), life is just so much better with it -If you close your eyes, what do you see? Nothing. Seriously. Only when I have a headache, I do see things with closed eyes. Can be very lucid images and films actually. Or it's just colorful stuff ... which occasionally continues to stay there when I open the eyes again ... depends on the headache I have (seriously). I do not do illegal drugs btw... -What makes Psytrance so unique? Simply said, no other music gives me that energy in exactly that way. It's just that. And the fact that the music is very free and there are a lot of styles and combinations, ranging from instrumental tribal stuff (Hilight Tribe, Etnoscope,...) over twisted psychedelic trance (Hallucinogen,...) down to the old school goa trance (Dimension 5, RA) over kickass funky progressive (Pusherstreet, Magnetrixx,...) up to spacy soundscapes (S-Range), over to dark twisted stuff (Gappeq,...) till Fullon (Silicon Sound,...) and even then there's still something in between such as Atmos, Shiva Chandra, Eat Static and soooo many more... -What's the best thing about it? Energy.

ha, I had so little time last year to get acquainted with new releases that I fucked up my voting... doesn't matter that much though. The best of the decade voting is going to be better, I'm really looking forward to this one...

Is this really -- finally -- going to come true? First half of April? Hope it's not another hoax ... there have been too many already concerning this... I'd buy it though.

uh, well, good luck... such stuff is mostly produced by some media company ... made of videos in a huge library, bought together from other media companies. probably like in our TV station ... huge archives of music, takes months to listen through. sorry if that didn't help, I'd just like to point out that without a more concrete hint it's next to impossible to find out some medium-downtempo type of music video, given the fact that this might be not even known in the scene. don't you have any other hints? any samples, mantras, images, indian voices, buddhas, temples, whatever?

that's some mean shit... thanks for having the nerve to put up with all that @ Mars and everybody affected.

word up! Saw Vader live in January! This was awesome. ... But at the moment I'm excited. Super-excited! It's that time of the year: FINNTROLL new album NIFELVIND! And I will see this live today! PAGANFEST 2010, today in Vienna! This is going to be a MONSTROUS BLAST!

Yeah, people, stop the drama and the arguing and accept the universal truth that Progressive music is simply the best, beating Goa AND Psy! Muahahaha (That was a joke, mmmkay? But seriously, don't worsen the troubles that music off the mainstream has by quarreling, doesn't bring you anywhere.)

nice topic I find all very good except: request for change => Reger: must be! other than that, this is a great idea! can anybody make a little bad aum smiley for me? you know, the avatar I had for so long until I decided to go for da Panzar (no, this is not really a request ... I just want to make sure people remember it)

For The Freaks is seriously awesome! other than that:

so it's you who made that vid! I already wondered ... I think I stumbled upon it at some point of time, but I don't think I found it over Psynews, didn't register the thread back then....

I sorta get what you mean .. but you know, I like to keep it simple. The structure, the melodies. Additionally I don't listen to a lot of darkpsy, which is why I am not so used to all these effects and standard methods and "usual sounds" as you. That's why I like that piece

Remember oXezy? That's good stuff ... you might like: http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs9RLuorXGs what do you say? (sorry for OT )
