the goa constrictor

I don't own any of these re-releases and don't foresee me buying them, but I approve and appreciate their releases. I don't like buying CDs because I don't listen to CDs. I listen to digital music or vinyl. Vinyl is nice because it is physical and has an opportunity to make something more like art. The middle ground is for you to not-buy them. I do not believe the vinyls sound better than a similarly mastered digital release. These are strictly for collectors. They're for people who want to buy this type of product for their collections. This is what record labels need to do now that music is near worthless with Spotify and streaming options eating up more sales. Now that Shpongle is nearing the end, hopefully Younger Brother is up next!!!!!

EVERY TOPIC WITH ROTWAG IS A PARTY!!!

How is the quality of the shirt print? I tossed my Nervasystem shirt from Arjuna Records. It was a piece of garbage print, it was offensive. I'm sure you're not gonna openly say "our prints suck" as that would be weird, but hopefully you know of the quality of that Nervasystem shirt and can at least attest to it being better than that... (note: sometimes I feel my comments are super catty and dickish... I really don't mean to be a twat... apologies for when I am...)

oh wow =) digital hoarding comes to the rescue again!!!

Don't forget to listen to Reset! It finishes the journey =) I <3 Kino Oko so much... He's such a unique gift of a musician and artist =)

Yeah, it took a few bits before the mix really found its footing... Prana / Masaray is where I think it really starts to take shape =) Glad you enjoyed!

looking good =)

Great update! Happy new years!!! =)

I finally got the full track list posted for those interested... http://goaconstrictor.com/music/excited-for-zna/

Igor Swamp is fucking legit. Texas Faggott, Mandalavandalz, Satanic Disney, Tea Chairs, Flying Scorpions, Squaremeat... Pavel Svimba, Mullet Mohawk, Road Band, The Sebastians Outolintu, Haltya, Pelinpala, The new swing Loopus in Fabula album is so awesome. Scozbor/Odd Harmonic always push boundaries Vishnudata and James Reipas have been doing great techno style for a while

...the goa constirctor... is excited for ZNA!... (2hr34min/320MP3/372.6MB/©2018) Genre: Super Duper Goa Trance ...so there's this festival next summer and I'd super excited for it. It's called ZNA Gathering and the line-up is quite proper. While I know not all of these songs are gonna get played, I did want to make a mix highlighting the artists who'll be performing; so this mix has music from the first 21 announced artists performing next summer. The mix starts off a bit mellow before catching its full-on Goa power, spirals into psychedelic chaos, and back into a solid groove of the cosmos of spacetime.

...so how are those Doof shirts coming along?

It was okay

That list makes me feel shitty about how little new music I have heard =(

The USA got ruined by The Cult of Gil. People think Gil was the end-all-be-all curator and the country was flooded with shitty darkpsy. There is a different contingent of club-friendly full-on; which is far more preferable, but still missing a bit of the weirdness and nerdiness of days past.

Ollie (Shaolin Wooden Men) Olsen!!!!!! Jesus christ... this line-up is ridiculously the best line-up I've seen and I'm super fucking pumped about this.

Maybe try Delirious Noon ?

Do you happen to know who I should check-in with regarding playing a set? Since I'm gonna be out there, might be nice to throw down some tracks.

That sounds like a great suggestion =) Juno Reactor and Total Eclipse!!! Eeeeeek!!!!!

This line up is just fucking gold though. I'm so excited and there are still many more acts to announce. I'm kinda tempted to just drop a stupid amount of money on a tipi, if I'm gonna be traveling that far and making a holiday out of it, maybe I should just relax without the stress of setting up camp. But for $700+, I can definitely pack some extra bags on a flight or buy a new tent after I land in Portugal.

I'm kinda thinking I might hold onto it a bit in case I find someone else who wants to travel with me. Then they can have my extra. I figure if we arrive at the same time, it's okay if both tickets have my name on it. I'll wait a few days for them to sift through their angry emails from people who got charged and haven't received their confirmations yet.

yeah, my card was charged twice and I got two email confirmations/tickets, but they have the same bar code on them, so I think it's only one ticket. I'll get that sorted with ZNA but am pleased to have gotten a ticket during the chaos. Set my alarm and made sure to take my lunch when they went on sale =)

Anyone else going to Portugal next summer for ZNA? It's far from home and I'm traveling solo. If anyone might be camping with a crew and have some extra space for a constrictor to join the adventure, let me know! =)

I've been waiting for Shudder to get a digital release for years. This is great news =)
