    Some new updates! :)

    On Classic Goa Trax we releases a full previously unreleased 90's album by Syrinx, aka Patrice Van Den Berg! This Dutch producer released a 12' before on legendary Matsuri Productions and a dirty sounding EP under the Hypercycle moniker. On top of that he was also part of Metal Spark! So, you know more or less what to expect, gloomy goa-trance filled with psychedelic sounds, a gloomy atmosphere and futuristic technoid vibes! :) Not for the faint hearted!

    And... The new Median Project on Suntrip will come 1st of may! Sample following soon :)

    Oh shit yeah!

    I love that Matsuri 12"

     

  2. good to hear things are slowly coming back together over there

    As for Bandcamp: I always always always encourage people to download their music locally. One never knows when a platform may disappear and it's not smart to solely rely on other people's platforms. Save your music locally and consider the Bandcamp (or whatever) streams as a bonus feature that could disappear at any moment. =)

  3. What did you put as your name on Facebook? They will absolutely close you for that violation

    As for the messaging, you can indeed message people if not friends. Those messages get filtered into a different messaging box and each user can choose what degree of removal needs to be met to send a message (you can choose open, friends only, friends of friends). Friends of Friends is common. So even if you're not directly connected to the person, if you share common friends, you can get messages through.

  5. I actually kinda do start with the entire library (and it can be daunting).

    Generally I have inspiration from a handful of songs I've been listening to a lot recently and build from there. I'll create a playlist in Rekordbox and begin dropping albums and tracks in which might compliment or complete the journey.

    As for the Path Dependency: I started with vinyl in the mid-90s, moved to CDJs in early 2000s, then Traktor around 2010. I switched to Rekordbox this spring, around April. It was/is a learning curve but I couldn't be happier. I hated playing with a laptop. I love being able to export music onto my thumb drive and play with proper platters. It feels more like DJing again. And since I don't overtly tag and sub-define my tracks with tons of metadata, switching from Traktor to Rekordbox wasn't too terrible. Re-analyzing all of the music is a cumbersome thing but whatever, do it as I go.

    Edit/Addendum:
    1. While I have started creating and playing with custom tagging in Rekordbox, the tags I am making are less genre-specific and are more stylized. Some tracks are great for sunrise, others afternoons, some can go anytime. So I am beginning to experiment with this but it's been a dabble and nothing serious.

    2. I have a long history of declining gigs if I'm not inspired. I don't feel I need to have a playlist or ability ready to rock a party at any moment. If I've not been actively listening to stuff that I'm passionate to share, when I get offered gigs, I'll recommend friends and other DJs who might be a better fit for the time being. This has frustrated various promoters who then kinda stop reaching out, which is fair, but I am not gonna fake it or take gigs just for the sake of it. So the need to have music organized for a consistent gigging schedule isn't needed for me =)

  6. I generally keep things simple for the root tracks. Whatever comes out via XLD is how I leave it. If manually adding, I might put Goa, Psychedelic, or Suomi (but I don't have any rules about these terms and use them loosely and in ways wildly inappropriate). In Rekordbox I may add additional tags as you can do custom tags of whatever, and however many, you choose.

    I rarely look for music by genre, so filtering that way just isn't my workflow and process. I also find adding too many labels/terms to be troublesome as so much music can fit in different realms and it gets overly complicated to sub-define too much (but, again, that's just my perspective and flow with it).

    =)

  7. I decided to try something new with my second online event of the COVID pandemic and had a little fun with things.

    YouTube won't let me post the full thing (copyright on the intro and outro tracks), but I did create a YouTube Friendly Version
