    Things that ruined Psy Trance for you

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    I guess what ruined it for me is that I found better (and much, much more psychedelic) music. Almost all psytrance started to sound boring. There are like under 20 psy/goa artist albums that are worth listening. The rest seems crap. On a normal week I listen to about 30 albums, and maybe one or two of them are trance.

     

    Examples of albums that I still am able to enjoy:

     

    Pleiadians - IFO

    Total Eclipse - Delta Aquarids

    Procs - The Lonely Land of Tada

    Koxbox - The Great Unknown

    Juno Reactor - Beyond The Infinite

     

    Also I've started to hate the fact that every trance album is almost 80 minutes long. That's too much boomboom for me. Shorter tracks with the same amount of ideas and creativity -> less boring music.

    What new music did you get today?

    Texas Faggott - Petomans Peflett

    Squaremeat - Jungle Boogie Party Line

    Mandalavandalz - Hong Kong Knightlife

    Also the first ever finnish psytrance album, Flippin' Bixies - Sörkkä Sonic deserves a mention.

    Eraserhead

    in Movies

    Posted

    This is the second most disturbingly strange movie I've seen. Only second to Subconscious Cruelty.

     

    Though of course Eraserhead is superior to Subconscious Cruelty as a movie.
