    I bet this is retro now... some inspirations to revisit the past...

    Freedom of speech means you have the right to say what you want. It doesn't mean that anybody is obliged to provide a platform for you to do so. Be a racist all you like, but do it somewhere other than Psynews (e.g. here).

     

    Freedom of speech doesn't mean what people think it means... it doesn't mean you can say whatever you want without consequence or censorship... there is no place on earth that practices that sort of thing...

    can anyone shed some light on tekno music?

    Oh... I saw the headline without listening... Now that I have listened to some of the examples:

     

    I have heard this referred to as Hardcore Techno, I was never into it enough to seek out any artists... BUT

    Hellfish and Producer - Bastard Sonz of Rave is an amazing album:

    Here's the first track from it:

    Have to be in the right mood for it for sure...

     

    Parties for this style still happen in Toronto... rather underground still

    In the audio section of the site are some dj sets - B7 used to be mindblowing

    This one is from this year: B7 - Ignition (hardcore)

    Behind the music - conceptualism in Goa trance

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    I agree that conceptual albums can be a good thing, but...

     

     

     

    I strongly disagree about this. Caring about the world's evils is good and all, but psytrance music (as distinct from psytrance culture more generally) is just not the right place to preach about stuff. Psytrance is not punk rock for angry teenagers who think they know the solution to all problems, it's hedonistic music for people who want to dance and have a good time.

     

    The only example that comes to my mind of an overtly political psytrance producer is Vegetal, and the result is just horrible - good music utterly ruined by a social conscience. Who on Earth wants to hear someone talking about a Turkish massacre while they're partying and quite possibly tripping? Add to that the fact that politics is usually highly divisive and you have a recipe for instantly destroying the loved-up atmosphere that characterises the scene.

     

    I agree with Rotwang and would like to add to it:

    Where energy is focused, energy builds up.

    If you focus the high energy of psytrance on politics and negative things, then the energy of those negative things grows...

     

    Psytrance DANCE is a return to primal roots.

    Would you address your political concerns into your rain dance?

    No. These things are not actually important and do not deserve the attention that such things receive by the population at large...

     

    I am sure your mental masturbation is meant with good intentions, but you aren't aware how important it is for positive energy to GROW for the sake of GROWING to make the world a better place.

    No matter how hard you try, putting more politics into politics will not make politics any less full of shit....

    Psynews "Best of 2011" Results

    I think you had similar taste to mine back when you were posting regularly years ago, i.e. lots of noisy darkpsy of the sort they made more of in 2006 (nowadays more people are making psycore or highko-style stuff in my experience). Here are some good albums you may have missed:

     

    Enichkin - In Memory of Love (2009)

    Kraft - The Mysteries of the Sacred Universe (2009)

    Overdream - Wonderwise (2008)

    Dragon - Spirals of Time (2011)

    VA - Multiple Personalities 3 (2008)

    Axis Mundi - One Foot in Fantasy (2010)

     

    Well, I would say my favourites of the time were things like Terminator / Dominator / Quasar...

    These are mostly on their way now... Kraft is elusive...
