Some fantastic acts that I haven't seen mentioned are:
Octave (truly psychedelic fusion between minimal and psytrance... lots and lots of little touches like simulating a CD skipping, staggering attention to detail).
VX (Virgil Enzinger & Xavier "Prime Suspect" Morel): Nachtstrom's Schallplatten wunderkinderen).
Brian Burger (does a lot of work with Enzinger/VX. Highly recommended, he really knows how to keep things interesting.
Max Pollyul (if you like Burger, you will like this guy. Period.)
AnGy KoRe (Italian minimal trippy psy/tech/house. Not everything is good,)
Cisco Arias (check out The Hole or Tetraktys. All around solid dancefloor grooves.)
Alejandro Trebor (great minimal techno stuff that meshes well with the psytech sound.)
Worakls (French psy/tech/house. Their track "Future Echoes" is wobbly dancefloor dynamite. Equal to Fuzzion/Extrawelt in diversity of tracks and production skills.)
-
The psytech/trance style as a whole is criminally underappreciated. The artists I've listed below have gone over really really well on psy-dancefloors while I was DJing, but even many fans of the style don't know who they are!
Trippy dub/hard minimal techno:

If you like psytechno, minimal techno, tech house, psy house or tech trance, any of these will probably make you very happy. -
I much prefer the now-unavailable album "Zone Tranquille", which was downloadable from Electrypnose's website in 2004.
if you like "Subliminal Melancholies" definitely check it out! -
Check darkwinter.com for tons of free dark ambient. Really really good stuff
-
Ah so that's where they went! I quite like Authentik's psytech work, but half of the album is just mediocre chillout. :-/
It doesn't blend very well when you switch from bangin' psytech to clicheed tribal drumming...
If you like Three Point Turn, check out Opsis, PPS Project, Opsy, PhaseTech and Trimada.
-
Well, it's not really my cuppa tea as I stick to psytechno these das ... but try the artists Duca, itaitaiko, indepth, FM Radio Gods, Extrawelt
if you're lookingfor warm and/or techy midtempo psy-house-ish music.

Fragile - Hier regiert der Wahnsinn (Here rules insanity)

Well, I tried downloading it because I liked what I heard on your MySpace page... but the download link is dead.

I'm not into old-style goa much. Used to listen to a LOT of stuff out of South Africa, but nowadays I'm really into psytechno. So, here's my list:
1. Triac - Mean Between
2. Phasetech - [single tracks only, Druidia, Eternity One, Sounds, Timeslot, Terrahertz, Vibrasonic. I consider these an album]
3. Shift - Redline
4. Twisted System - The Dealers
5. Derango - Tumult
6. Metalogic - Magnetic Influence
7. Analog Pussy - Vinyl Traxx
8. PPS Project - AC vs DC
9. Nuclear Ramjet - Music for Spaceports
10. X-dream - Irritant
-
Nice work! I can hear certain similarities w/ Float & Phasetech, which, to me, is terrific!
MOAR

I have to like... re-listen to this one because I forget what the songs sound like.
I know it's as good or better than Dwelling In the Void.
It's as good as Dwelling in the Void, but I am missing a track with a bassline as memorable as Achilles' Heel.
I played a couple of his records at a party and people went positively crazy.
-
Interesting, fresh, experimental!! I like !
I bet. All *I* get is a 404 though.

Pure psychedelic trance, at 152 bpm I believe. Maybe 150, I forget.
Let me know what you think!
You may be interested in knowing that Chromatone has a track of the same name on his ChromaConnection promo album.
-
What an album. Words really fail to describe this for me. It's extremely streamlined, a finished product, a journey in itself. Love it.
-
Very very nice compilation... every track is a guaranteerd brain cracker. Can't imagine listening to this in one go, but that's probably not what it was designed for.
Will be spinning many of these tunes next time I play a darkpsy set.
Kudos!!
-
I really liked the trackselection - almost only good tunes. The flow was also quite good (although I think the Sensient track was misplaced), and loads of respect for making a very diverse mix and still keeping a steady flow.
As for the technical aspect, well ... it certainly needs improvement in my opinion. Luckily you'll improve over time with practice, practice and more practice. Hang in there, you're definitely on the right path
Fully agree
Thanks for sharing your set with us, FP. Not my style of psy, but I can see what you wanted to accomplish with this set and enjoy it for that
-
Actually that's correct. I've seen Para Halu perform live twice and the effect you get from playing on a great sound system is that the bassline is much harder than the actual kick. So the focus, the trance-inducing sound, goes from the stomping kick to the throbbing bassline. A very unique and a very funky way to make psytrance.
You'll never get quite the same effect on a home system, unfortunately.
-
Miditec... what noisy, abrasive psytrance is this? Never liked Beat Hackers either, by the way. So I guess this really qualifies as a 'worst album of 2005' for me; it sprang to my mind immediately when I read the topic.

Wow, didn't know that. Going to listen to some Osom tracks now to see if I can hear which part was made by whom
Anyway... I like Psykovsky's production and the sounds are nicely twisted BUT I really dislike those stuttering kicks. Like BOOOOOM BOOOOOM boomBOOOOOM BOOOOOM where they go from on-bass to off-bass. And almost every track has them. They just do nothing for me.

, but anyways, 154, 160 bpm??? are we in rotterdam or what? Id rather anally impale myself with a rusty firehydrant while deepthroating a herpes-infected syphillic elephant cock that just finished buttfucking a diarrhetic rhino with hemorrhoids than listen to shit like this 
Oh god, how I love my constructive criticism...If you would actually listen to the track you would find that only a small part of the Osom track is 160bpm - the end.
-
i've only listen once or twice at it from start to end, but i feel somewhat underwhelmed about this disc: it seems to feature a lot of macho-snares and wild breakz, but much less in the way of trippy noises and atmosphere
one tune that stuck out so far was that of phatmatix, made me listen at it a couple of times in a row
doesn't seem bad release, just a little unimaginative
ps: i don't mind 160 bpm at all though
To be honest though, the final track only goes up to 160bpm at the very end. I was fortunate enough to watch Highcosmos live at Fullmoon Festival 2005, and I have to say that was one very twisted set.
