  1. Here is my full cassette label:

    Posted Image

     

    sorry about the smearing...I am not very good at online photo editing...but if you want to see the full thing, I email you the pdf

     

     

    Nice one :) It's always nice when people like your music :)

     

     

     

    just stumbled on this one, I rekon it should fit your criteria:

     

    http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESjm9vSa8ho

     

    I know this one. Its for sure a great tune and I did consider it but for the mix I am doing I need a bit more energy (not confused with euphoric energy). Thanks for the recommendation :)

     

    If you manage to make a deep mix of new music you might restore my fate in psytrance. Good luck!

     

    You probably consider the below recommendations to be too old (2005-2006), but they would fit well with that SBK track:

     

    Midimiliz - Non standards

    Kino Oko - Lost Entertainment

    Triac - Mean Between

    V/A - Refresh - Aeon Records

    V/A - Rewired - Jester Records

    V/A - Abracadabra

     

    You are right. It's a very hard task to find the music I have in my head for this mix. But I have not given up :) I will check out your suggestions. I know their previous work (which I was not that much into). Let's see if there are some surprises to be found :)

     

     

    P.S! Thanks for all the suggestions. One thing I have noticed is that some start to suggest (MO) standard progressive trance. Maybe I did not explain it well - if so I apologize. But I am not looking for progressive trance with the usual standard stabs and basslines. Actually I like to stay away from that sound (I call it the Iboga sound) as it's a very different mix I am out to make. Its damn hard to explain as what I call deep, trippy, hypnotic can be something totally different to someone else :)

    I am also not looking for techno sounding like something 99/100 release on Beatport :)

     

    I know I am difficult :)

  2. Some here say the have no time to answer all emails. My answer is learn to plan your time better. Especially if you run a business (yes a label is also a business). It's not that difficult.

  3. http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXPn84rPSBk

    Not sure how close this is to 2010...as it is supposedly the rough draft.

     

    Regardless, my best suggestion for you: Stop looking outside, make your own damn track. Only you know what you want, so make it yourself. I think you have gathered a plethora of market research to get excited about it.;)

     

    What are you ranting on about? I am looking for new tunes for a DJ mix. I hardly see what that got to do with me making my own music (which I am doing).

  4. I'm with Ivan, I do also find all that fairly tiresome. I don't post much, but as a reader, sometimes is quite difficult to follow a thread as they tend to get derailed fairly quickly by this.

     

    I did not derail anything and let's be honest now. Who was the one jumping who here? Don't defend people unless they are innocent or your girlfriend ;)

  5. +1

     

    At least Electric Universe actually managed to make a really good album, despite being full-on-ish (which is rare). I am talking about Cosmic Experience of course. Anything after that was a disappointment. Have you heard?

     

    Yes but since I really dislike the Full-on genre (just as much as i dislike Germain Schlager) I am not the right person to judge any full-on release :)

  6. Artists, if you are going to release an album digitally and physically, release it physically first. The opposite way round is beyond moronic business-wise.

     

    You forgot to write "IMO" ;)

  7. For a second I thought I might be off. But, are you kidding me? Elysium...You know when you started making Goa? Well, if these guys weren't American, I swear they could have easily been tagged and have gone the Goa route. This is the stuff that people were looking for back in 1994-1995, not just to dance, but they wanted to trip harder, So I suggest checkinig out my American Goa Pioneers: Hardkiss Brothers and Rabbit in the Moon. Check out this Album by Hardkiss. it has a track called Delusions of Grandeur by Rabbit in the Moon. It's like trippy, breaks, housey, trance. This was the shit back in the day: These guys got picked up by the mainstream pretty quick. Anyway, David Christoper and Bunny are old friends of Ivo aka Acrodot(Glitcmachines) and mine.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I've listened to their music before :) But I guess I got to repeat myself here. I am not looking for old stuff. I am looking for music from 2010/2011. :)

  8. There hasn't been much tribal progressive trance released lately.

     

    Shakta released a progressive album back in 2004 called "Feed The Flame". There's some good, tribal progressive on there - also on CD2, which is kind of a compilation of earlier vinyl-releases. Then of course there's the Kooler-album from 2004. Definitely some of the best progressive trance and loaded with tribal elements. The Saiko-Pod remix-album from the same period also had some hypnotic and tribal tracks, although on the slower side with no tracks over 130 BPM. Oh, and Antix - Lull. Although I'm sure you know that - there's some truly deep, tribal progressive trance for you :)

     

    For more recent stuff I guess that for instance "Spleens" from the latest SCS-album might be something. Very hypnotic in my opinon, but again "only" 128 BPM.

     

    Since you seemed to like GuySatanicHippies techno-suggestions, here's a bunch of techno/tech house/progressive house tracks that I consider very hypnotic and trance-inducing and not over-melodic. In no apparent order:

     

    Carl Craig - At Les (Christian Smith's Hypnotica Remix)

    Mohrr - Dirty Feet

    Ramon Tapia - Pelican

    Len Faki - Rainbow Delta

    Edit Select - Beneath (Mark Broom Remix)

    Nikola Gala - Tunnel Vision

    Astronivo - What With

    Phunk Investigation - Bulerias

    Seismal D. & D. Diggler - Somnambulist (D. Diggler Remix)

    Patch Park - Mutant

    Patch Park - Mutant (Marc Marzenit Haunted House Remix)

    Samuel L. Session - Four To The Floor (Part 2)

    Samuel L. Session - Four To The Floor (Part 1)

    AstroNivo – Nature Of Destiny (Presslaboys Remix)

    Chris Liebing - Auf und Davon (Zahn Decimals Slow Burner Remix)

    Paul Ritch - Split the Line (Dubfire's Mega Remix)

    Psycatron & Sian - Vertigo (Sian Elevator Mix)

    Mihalis Safras & Mark Broom - Tru Tru (Paul Ritch Remix)

    Ramon Tapia – Addicted

    Joel Mull - Danny Boy

    Paul Ritch - Blue Light

    Dot Allison - Cry (Slam Vocal Remix)

    Dustin Zahn & Joel Mull - Close Your Eyes (Alan Fitzpatrick's Behind Enemy Lines Weapon)

    Dustin Zahn & Joel Mull - Bossa Nossa (Pan-Pot Vocal Edit)

    Marc Marzenit - Neo Galaxy

    4D - Phantom - Atmos Remix

    Psycatron - People In Glass Houses

    Namito – Zizou (Tom Pooks Zizooks Remix)

     

    It's getting late, so I guess you have to track them down yourself :D

     

    Thanks for the suggestions. I know most of it and yes a lot of it is great music :) I'll check out "Spleens"...

     

    I was hoping to find a bit more trance oriented music somewhat resembling the style (but fresh and not from the 1990's and 2000's) in my 2 mixes I posted as reference. The 3rd mix will also be leaning toward the trance side of things (I have other mix series that deal with techno and Tech which is way easier to find he he).

     

    But as I mentioned earlier. Maybe it's not possible to find much new music in this direction these days.

  9. Actually, the whole world is just making quips and astonished remarks today about a game that spent 14 years in development.

     

    But hey, DNF was the very definition of vaporware or "not existing" for a decade. Still, it eventually got released so who knows, what kind of weird things can happen in this world.

     

    The whole debate is based on speculations and OK then let's predict the outcome. I predict 9/10 will be very disappointed IF the album is released.

  10. Trancy techno is the best techno :)

     

    Elysium, by "deep" do you mean music that's a little bit abstract?

     

    I really have to second In R Voice. I don't know if it's the kind of vibe you want -- it's a little on the cold side -- but there is a sense of mystery in his music, something I find missing from most psy today.

     

     

     

    I's not easy to define "Deep". But music with a more tribal or hypnotic approach I guess would describe what I am looking for.

     

    The two examples are a bit too chilled for what I am looking for. I know the artist and like the music though :)

     

     

    Check this out, Teva by Guy J. (sounds nothing like the Lamur Remix). Deep, pounding and driving (2011)

     

    http://www.youtube.c...h?v=NMQJh2Sj-xI

     

     

    Or this, Hypnoslave by Josh Wink (2009). More techno though, but I find it entrancing

     

     

     

    Or this Roland M. Dill - Turboencabulator. Now it gets really Techno, though, but still deep, trippy and tribal

     

    http://www.youtube.c...feature=related

     

     

    Or this, Emmanuel Top is Back!

     

     

    http://www.youtube.c...feature=related

     

    You nailed it on Guy J and Roland M. Dill. I don't care if it's Techno (heck everything was called Techno in the Trance scene in 1993 even though I would call this crossover music and not pure techno) as long as it's hypnotic and has a deep drive which those two tunes got. Still they have a"trancey" edge too :)

     

     

    Too fast :) I know Etnoscope and haven't got into it that much. But thanks for the suggestion :)

     

    Check Kained and Able out, might be close to what you're after. Thought Crime could be one tune.

     

    It's OK but I really dislike the monotone IMO boring and typical minimal basslines found in this genre. :)

     

    137 bpm

    http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDYSHTxGzF4

     

    not nearly as tech-house inspired as the SBK track you mentioned as a perfect example, but it has quite the tribalistic flow :mellow:

     

    It's OK but I think SBK does it better in the 2 or 3 tunes I like. This sound a little to common progressive umpa umpa to me :)

     

    Sorry I know I am hard to "please" :)

  11. Agneton, Anoebis: that's exactly what I was trying to tell Richpa. There are busy people behind labels, etc. Usually just ONE person.

     

     

    Come on now.It's not like they are EMI or Virgin Records ;)

     

    I ran two quite successful labels "Loopfreaks Records and Loopfreaks Black" from 2003 - 2008 with 100+ artists releasing on the labels and approx. 5-8 releases a month. At the same time I also held a day to day job. And I managed to reply to 99.5% of all emails (I ignored a few from artists who would not take a no as an answer).

  12. I don't know of anyone making stuff like this anymore, i'd be glad if anyone suggests something like it...

    Which is my definition of deep trippy music to trance to...with a hefty dose of acid.

     

    Peace out.

     

     

    Yes it's a classic! :) I seriously doubt anyone do this kind of music today. Actually the more I listen to new music the less diversity i find. Many artists seem to be caught up in belonging to small narrow "boxes" keeping the music within limits of genres descriptions, Seem to me artists just experimented way more at that time.

  13. SBK - Dawny Darko

     

    The tempo is right (around 125bpm), beats are chunky and it's quite trippy, too. I like this one quite a lot, and want more current stuff like it.

     

     

     

    Edit: there are some very minimal and trippy Villalobos tracks, try the Shackleton remix Blood On My Hands and the 37-min-long "Fizheuer Zieheuer". He uses few sounds but knows how to get a deep & weird vibe out of them.

     

    The first tune is damn cool! It's certainly something I can use. I'll look into what else SBK has done. Thanks :)

     

    You are far off the milky-way mate. Not what I am looking for but cheers :)

     

    What about this ?

     

    Too bad the god damn youtube deactivated the link, and it isn't even from the schlabb guys but from Hymen records? WTF?

     

    It's not easy to say yes or no when I can't listen to it he he :)

  14. I reckon as LvB said, maybe try out the progressive suggestions, Merkaba and Tetrameth, but really anything from Zenon. Not a bad selection at Ektoplasm either. I wouldn't really call it the generic progressive sound at all, its definitely much darker, trippier and deeper and something different. Often either really tribal or really science, not the 'clubby' sound at all.

     

    Those artists are as far as possible away from what I am looking for. It's a matter of taste of course. But to me this music is more like minimal progressive dark with IMO very boring basslines. I guess I am looking for NEW MUSIC that still has the same atmosphere and hypnotic feeling as the tunes I used in the first two mixes.

     

    Alien Jesus? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

     

    Ha ha yeah let's make a glow-stick Club mix :)

     

     

     

    Thanks to all for their suggestions (even though some misunderstood my request lol). I guess it's very hard IF not impossible to find new music that has the sound I am looking for. Or maybe we just don't know the music he he :)
