Hi guys, I've just written a big letter of apologies to Cosmosis, who had posted here to ask us to remove some direct download mp3 of his latest album Contact ! This is amongst the things i totally hate to do. We are doing all we can to promote atrists and we end up in trouble with some of them because of 2 kinds of people : the mp3 traders who have no respect for the work of the artists they listen to, and the moderators of those forums. Shame, shame, shame on us all. ...Grrrrrr i've seen there has been no moderation here for a while... ** So first, i'm looking for serious motivated and available moderators. please email me (mars@planet-d.net) if you wanna apply. ** Second here are a few rules i wrote here a few times in 2002, but that the stubborn and the new ones here need to remember : - those are english forums, definitely. even if some mexican/danish/french party changes its location 1 hour before it starts, please speak here in english ! - sex related threads are tolerated on the offtopic only as long as they are related to >18 people. understood ? porn ads will be moderated as well. - drug related threads should be treated reasonably too... - no piracy talking, anywhere. if you speak about cracked software or ripped mp3s, that's piracy. if you speak about some hub on dc++, that's not. you see ? - no cd selling, no trading, no advertisement on the general forum. i'm afraid we have got some problems with that. plz go on the offtopic one for that for now on. - i already see some of you complain and say i'm a dictator or something. i promise, we won't take over your freedom. however, imagine an artist sues us because he thinks our forums link too many of his track....we were lucky this time with Cosmosis. Moreover, in france, where those forums' server is hosted, a webmaster can be charged for what's written on his message boards and his site can be forced to close. currently french authorities do whatever they can to crush any techno community. in other words, i wouldn't like to have psynews closed after 3 years. maybe that's unlikely to happen, but you never know. if it had to happen, *you people* would be the first to complain and Children would kick my ass too. please understand, give peace a chance, and see you. mars.

be happy guys, i just got an interview with Neuromotor/ESXS....you'll have the info you want

Right, but he moved in the UK a few months ago. Chris Hoy is his name.

Hello girls & guys For several reasons we are upgrading (a lot) the forums server today (dec 5th), so there will probably be a 3-4 hours deadline.... Sorry for the inconvenience. Bom ! the Psynews team

V/A - Freaks In A Frenzy Artist: Various Title: Freaks In A Frenzy Label: Procyon Date: 2002 Track listing: 01. Virtuart : Kalki 02. Shift : Optical Delusion 03. Stralia : Transducer 04. Psyside : True Power 05. Sienis : Snakes And Sparklers 06. Nomad : Party Time 07. Mr Peculiar : Prophecy 08. Atomic Pulse : 360 Degrees 09. Mastermind : Excalibur Review: Ok, I have seen some steps of the creation of this compil, I have seen Roopak selecting the tracks, I have seen Danger, the other manager, at Samothraki trying to promote it, I have seen the flyers for the release in my backpack in the way back...but i had never listened to this compil until... A few days ago i put several new cds to play in a row...and at a moment i thought "wow after 5 hours of disappointment, it's been 4-5 tracks i really enjoy, what is this one ?...ooooh the Procyon Records compil !!" Globally it's hard and powerful and i really like it !!! So : the Vituart quality is not perfect but the music is first dark, then pretty melodic and wicked. good one. the Shift is damn good as usual. lots of little musical tricks, the usual wobbles, and the little anthem melody at the end is evidence that the guy must go to an asylum quickly. the Stralia is quite mainstream (all the same sounds as atomic pulse)...but, well it should not be put in any hands cause it gets more and more and crazzzyyy ! your legs are gonna suffer if you dance on it the Psyside is intelligent and various with lots of small themes, all very oldschool...and at the end, yhaââââ whooo an Etnica-like melody !! the Sienis is...a masterpiece. Psytrance should definitely be like that. just listen to it. THANKS !!!! the Nomad is not bad but too linear. The end gets better with a twisted climax. the Mr.Peculiar is too 32-bang-32-boom-32 to my mind but fortunately it gets better and better till the end. the Atomic Pulse track is yet-another-Atomic-Pulse-without-surprises-that-sounds-like-a-Passenger-track-r emixed...no. well it's actually *very good* with a very uplifting melody at the end, but i'm tired of the Atomstrixprojnection style the Mastermind is a surprise (remix of Esxs' Bloody Sword), unusual, crazy, violent....thats perfect to end such a compil. Favourites are the Sienis, and the Psyside following closely. After that i noticed several tracks are built the same : running begining, late break, powerful climax. it's not a problem here because all the tracks have different enough styles. So that's probably one of the best full-on compils this year. Various, you know, various !! 8/10.

You know, Betrand / psychedelik.com has litterally some foam at his mouth when he speaks about your playlist.... So i'll be there in the middle of the crowd next saturady, saying huuu haaa whooo yééé !! I already got the Miraculix album at AAA...very good cd imo. it has been in my cd player for 2 days now...very rare fact...and i'm sure this guy can still improve.

Shane Gobi is going to play in London next saturday...i wonder if it could be possible to find cds such as the new DarkSoho in some stand there, because i'm pretty interested )

scan your own albums ))

still WIP (Work in Progress) for several sections. We are close to something that's working now !!

something like THAT for example ? this is psynews2 registration system, finished 2 weeks ago.

yes yes yes yes and yes. we are working on it.

it was not hacked. there was a mutual exclusion problme withg my sersion of the mysql server i think and some tables got corrupted...and about the new flags...this is a mystery...seems they are working on the offtopic forum...i'll check it

I have this album, i listened to it 2 times. 1 or 2 tracks sound a bit commercial, the rest is great ! Ok it's Astral Projection typical sound but it's refreshing because we're not so used to it and it's unique. I prefer artists to release an album every 3 years than overdozing people with all the time the same shit.

next time goto offtopic for that, man...

After 2 days of struggle, data filtering and cleaning, they are back... pfeeew you can restart from oct 10th backup. Enjoy. mars ps : i wonder if, as usual, Strumpling will be the very 1st one to notice the forums are back....

I heard one track, it's GREAT.

Thanks Ananda...did you recover well since the Astral Phoenix party in London ??? ...and can you tell us when will the Lotus Omega album be available on psyshop/saikosounds ? They really blew ma away at Samothraki. For those who don't know Ananda is the new moderator of Isratrance's french forum (he replaced Infected Max i think), and he is also one of the Mechanik Sound Records Djs.

I confirm, Yakov Biton WAS part of GMS and now he is Spiral Active Project alone whereas Ricktal & Banzi are GMS. SO, maybe we can solve an old mystery : who are Ricktam & Banzi. They could be of hese 3 guys : Jacob Lee / Joe Quineros / Sajahan Natkin. Please people, help us solve this mystery !!!!!

Go to any other party and you'll hear all the tracks Astrix played. Yeah it was good but with nothing really new. This guy MUST renew his music and he must think about QUALITY, not quantity. Personnally i loved BLT. Infected were good, but less good than before... The last track was awesome though. And the guy that made the party great was also Eyal Yankovitch who did some really awesome sets with so many new tracks (only israeli music of course), including some new Astral Projection !!! Eyal, if you still read us : thank you

mijis y dogodg : Entiendo enspañol pero no esta el caso de todos. La régla aqui es de escribir en inglès. Pues si escribir en inglès esta tan una grande dificultad, por favor no quedan escribir aqui. dogdog : ...y me gustria si cessaria insultar los visitantes, aun si conoces el otro. Gracias amigos. [summary for non-spanish people : "this is an english forum"]

this is a known isuue, but i prefer a counter error than a monnon-written public ad for piracy. i'll check if the developpers of the is forum have, at least, fixed this issue.

I got kinda listen to it at the samothraki when simon was playing in the chillout on the last day's morning. you can't imagine..... it's wonderful I recognized LSD and GammaGoblins turned into Shpongle deliriums..and he also played pearls i cannot describe because they're too extraordinary beyond imagination and words
