  1. Hello everyone, this is my frist post since the forum changed recently, I must say I like the fact that psynews is like everything, adapting to the current times.

     

    And that analogy is true for long running artists, Its all about exploring, you cannot bound talent to just one genre cause it will burnout, I believe thats what happening with IM, they have been the top psy act for awhile now, and I dont blame them for trying to be different, ironic as it sounds lets take AP, I dont understand the psy evangelists who also complain about why AP is still doing old school, seems like the old timers are having a tough time accepting change....

  2. If hes going to appear on tv, or making a video, or in this huge parties/festivals, he must go with the flow, he must play this cheeeeeeesy tunes for everyone to like, but hopefully Ive receive some comments of people who have seen him live in a clube with not that many people (Im thinking ibiza) and they tend to be ok, catchy tunes with a great understanding of deep trance, fresh yet not poppish..

  3. "Psytrance will have been dead for a long time, but a new form of disco will have taken its place."

     

    Well thats as vague as if we were in the 60's and predict a new form of rock to appear in the 80's. But could you imagine somthing more specific? What about the current psy, what will survive, what wont....what styles will be there...imagine your 15 yr old kid...what could he like...

  4. Look at the 20th century, think of the music from the 1900, and then look at the one made in the '50s, the 70's the 80's the 90's you see a constant? I do, they were all dictated by the uprise of technology (music making techniques/ production - synthetic drugs - internet) and the kids' lost of innocence to mass media, global economics and massive distribution/advertising channels.

     

    I believe that psy wont be around for that long, I see integration of genres at best, ethnic based. I also dont think the 4/4 kick will survive another 20 years. It will be more hardcore, angry at times, crazy. We wont be able to listen to it. All of this may happen if we survive the 2012.

  5. I believe that there are a lot of pessimistic perceptions out there, cause the scene has gone to a point where they all sound the same.

     

    Maybe the scene has entered a mature age. It has gone from the totally psychedelic in the begining to minimal and now back to the wild thing with layers and layers of riffs, random sounds and melodic basslines. Of course there are lots of copycats, the market is growing, but Im guessing that this may kill it as well. I think I see a shift in the future, It has to happen, It has happened to every musical genre in the past.

  6. Now that I think about, the fact you stant in front of the speakers concetrated in the music probably makes you more aware of each note, each change in the beat...

     

    And yes, its more clear to me now that the dj builds a mood and if the mix sound like a single song, it definetely will make you think you've been hearing the same groove for long.

  7. Hey everyone, I got an odd question that has haunted me for quiete a while now, I dont usually go to that many raves, I live in northern Mexico and here the scene its not hip. So the question is, why the tracks I listen in a rave are quite more 'deep' or last more with the same samples, are more repetitive, the changes come slow..., I say this cause I have listened to antix, aphid moon, phony orphants albums and they are more 'radio ready' so to speak. Is this because the versions in the vinyls are different from the CDs?
