this is off topic but i won't delete this thread. usually i am very neutral but not this time. i'm going to explain the situation for people not in the know : yesterday in france was the first round to elect france's next president. 2 guys among 16 were selected by people. in 2 weeks, there is a second vote to know the president for sure. eveyone thought Mr Jospin (socialist, current primi minister) and Mr Chirac (gaulist, current president) would be selected and would fight in the second round. however, yesterday, Mr LePen (fascist) got the second rank (17%), after Mr Chirac (20%), and before Mr Jospin (16%)! socialists are totally eliminated from the elections. indeed security in france has become a real concern, and the cadidates who gave the most simplist ideas (left and right extremists) got (too) good scores...too many people believed them, or showed they were unhappy with current politics, and voted for those extremists. do those people have such a bad memory that they have already forgotten what happened in 1933 ? Mr Chirac is probably not the man lots of french people would have chosen in the 'normal scenario', but today, he is the only one that can grant democracy in france as a president. fortunately he is 'said' to win with 80% of the votes, as even socialists called to vote for Chirac and break the rise of fascism...but it was also 'said' that Mr Chirac and Jospin would both reach easily the second round... now this rise of fascism is too dangerous for everyone...this is not the french country i once knew. i'm ashamed to be french today! but this is not only about france. this rise does exist in europe, in the world. last night there were big meetings in paris against fascism. 80% people in france refuse the france that is shown to the world today. i hope we will show it enough for people to remind, and realize what they almost did. yesterday and last night there was also the big annual 'Effervetranse' meeting in a big place in paris. this meeting gathers every people involved into psytrance, no matter what is his/her nationality, colour, religion. this is a major event. lots of organizations and new groups get known, get credit, get united in the name of peace, love, unity, respect. i was there and i saw everyone had had his week end ruined by those elections. we all agreed to do what we could. so, first, I want to encourage every french people here, and everyone in general, to fight fascism before the second round of those elections, *and beyond*. we won't let things go. we will show the world that France will not let fascism rise anymore. we will show Mr LePen that he is not welcome anymore into france's political landscape. we will show we are a fully democratic country. thanks. fabien 'mars' / psynews.

yes i know. thanks. same as JanUa on another forum. i'm going to spend my next week end visiting locations with Anoebis. that message was just meant to try to find other locations, just in case you people know some more.

hmm i dont think it would be really that valuable. that's only one party. if you wanna do an "european campaign" and attend to all festivals besides our party, then it's worth coming, and stay.

Hello everybody. Sorry to disturb you but we need some help : Some of you already know we are organizing a psytrance party on june 29th in Belgium. I'll join Anoebis there this week end to visit some places...but we thought some of you may know a real cool place too. So we are looking for a quite big place (at least 500 people), preferably in the Ardennen mountains, so as to party as much as we want A good place would be a farm or something, so that we can also dance outdoors! If you have been somewhere that looks like that, if you can help, don't hesitate to contact us, we'd be grateful. Thanks. mars@planet-d.net & anoebis@goatrance.com

no there is no album yet but lots of people would like to see one. ouais tu sais Omar, ça ferait plaisir à plein de monde si vous le finissiez ) et puis on aimerait bien vous voir en france aussi.

i'm still orking on it but i dont have much time....still planned before the summer (before this project is 1 year old )

they just wanted to participate. but they're not on the official release

the tracks are not displayed in the main contest section probably because children forgot to update the page. that's a lot of work dexium : 3 tracks, among which is yours are not in that update...don't know why as i'm not the guy who has all info....i'll tell you

Joske, i know you're here... hm sorry guys but this is the only way for me to have quick answers from the blond dreaded dj with psycho pyjamas... seriously, do you agree with what i said in the email i sent you a few days ago ? (the placeslist given thru naya, me coming on the 20th) ? i don't like to urge you but i have an overloaded planning, like you, and i need to organize lots of things together, you know. important : if you answer, please use the @ i gave you in my latest email, as the planet-d.net mailserver is dead until at least next week. f+

so COP is Jan Muller from XDream + the Ganguru group. Epic Automata gave the good artists names for Ganguru, but not the good group. Noosphere is in fact Neils Paschen & Eberhart Schulz (the 2 former members of the Delta) indeed it's been a year i haven't seen Willy/Ganguru in paris, so they could be in Japan, i don't know.

Joske i know you're here plz answer my email. it's important and i'm short of time to decide now. actually if you still want to come, my friends can't give you a ride on the 6th, but if i come too with my own car on the 5th, i can bring you back with me. i just need to know what you decide. i have no holidays, so it makes no difference to me, it just depends on you. fab. (to other people, i know doesn't look trance related, but it is, believe me)

.............. : thanks [tom jaimz] : the phtos are remastered, i'm renaming them, they'll be available soon. yes, the delta did exactly what you say.

I was there and i admit friday's party was set on a too small place...in france it's always like that so we enjoyed a lot. and saturday's party was like a dream. i have lots of photos and i felt good vibes about last week end's 2 parties, so i think we'll review them, indeed.

the trading one is a good idea, but i fear soem people will try to trade more... the top10 one is also a good idea, but i fear it will become a second general forum. well that's hard...let's see if children sees this thread.

I have photos from last saturday's Elsewhere party in London, where the Delta played. but i have a problem to name people : i know who is Marcus (the tall one with the beard), but which one is Wayan, and which one is Arne ? There is a blond guy with short hair and a brown guy with long hair.... thanks

i dont like too much complicated names but i admit you guys have a lot of imagination ! this compilation will be number 2, so what can i find on this theme : 'Twice' (i like this one) 'Second layer' 'Double Dose' (hmm only if there are 2 cds) what else? regarding the style of the compils: 'Newcomers' 'Switchback' (i like this one) mars.

hey people i said we would be objective, and not too harsh. we wont delete reviews saying an album is bad. this section is mainly about criticism, indeed. reviews marking an album as 'good' or 'bad' will be kept as long as their content respect the artist and others' reviews. to say it differently, "as long as the review deals objectively with the album on the same page, then the review will be kept" to say it differently again, "i hate this style" or "i have to buy it" or "you guys are...fools" wont stay on the pages. to khogg : don't be afraid and read my previous post. we are very sensitive to people's opinions and we thank them everyday for their support, we owe 99% of them....however some reviews have nothing to do on the reviews section and their posts will be deleted. thats all.

ok. not all the reviews but only the crappy ones. what we are going to do : extract all the reviews, read them (20000+ to read) and choose whether they should stay or not. reviews dealing with the above album will be kept. reviews like "i hate this style" or "i have to buy it" or "you guys are...fools" will be deleted. we wont be too harsh. this will happen before the summer.

hello you all know we are very cool with what's written on the reviews and forums, but to some extent we get angry...today children is very angry. so am i. i want to tell some of you that the reviews section aims at REVIEWING albums, not (over)reacting on other reviews, not insulting people, not writing nonsense. please keep in mind that that section is not a cool game on which you can let off stream...on a second degree, this section aims at helping people taking a decision whether to buy (or not) some albums. you know, if the reviews section becomes too bad, people wont come anymore to get an advice, they will only read psyshop's (not so right) comments, and this site will die. i'd rather see one good review, than one good followed by 40 gossips ! till the new reviews system is ready to sort whats good or not, i want you to be as upright as possible and remind what's above. once again this is only dedicated to some of you. some i would have emailed personnally if they had the courage to write their email... they may not mean harm but they eventually do a lot. please understand our point. thanks. f. mars.

'mars' is half of my real family name (indeed, nothing to do with the god of war, or the planet or the chocolate bar..)

Hello You noticed there is no update tonight. This is not our fault : Wanadoo DNS is screwed up. tip1 : Wanadoo is the biggest ISP in France, and unfortunately it is Children and I ISP... tip2 : a DNS is the thing that converts www.psynews.org to 212.27.35.35, the type of address the internet uses to identify anyone. usually there should be a redundant DNS for a big ISP...our ISP has 2 DNS addresses, but on the same hardware....fools. Now things seem ok, but at 4.30am Children is asleep...let's expect he'll upload the update when he gets up in 3 hours...

i'll store only enough for the site to know you're here

they probably changed the name at some point. 'crack' and 'kracht' are almost the same....there must be another delirious drug related story about this...unless this is a misunderstanding by phone, something like that. you never know
