I guess you meant to say "Iboga/Beatspace Bandcamp page https://iboga-beatspace.bandcamp.com/album/deep-flight Which is good since I don't use Beatport. That being said, I haven't cared much about "psytrance" in years, but you guys are an exception. I'd really like to see an actual CD next to all your other albums in my collection, but I guess Bandcamp is the way to go.

Was about to comment that the previous Healer albums are still on Ektoplazm, but they have been removed it seems. I still have those in my collection, and I really need to get this new album sooner or later The 12 moons album is still there: https://ektoplazm.com/free-music/12-moons-solid-state

Well, considering who is behind the project, I see no reason to defend him in any way. Does the name Thomas Vitali ring a bell? And the less pop industry influence this scene has, the better. All the garbage pop-fullon is already bad enough as it is (but then again, it's not really "psytrance" anymore anyway).

Since when has the PsyNina album been considered a "classic" in any other way than "a case of epic trolling"? :DD

UnityVerse Music proudly presents the debut album from Russian artist Mawru. This wild mixture of thick basslines and big beats, spiced with ethnic instruments, throat singing and jew's harp is influenced by different cultures such as the peoples of the North, Slavs, Balkans, Eastern and Asian cultures. Out of nowhere and from everywhere at the same time, this album carries the idea of uniting and interpreting music from all over the world. Music is a language that everyone can understand. Let it speak without words. Tracklist: 1. North Call 2. Senokos 3. Anatolia 4. Gypsy Baron 5. Heiya (feat. Irina Nomirovskaya & Abracadaver) 6. Red Sun 7. Mantra 8. Balkanarnia 9. Microtonaliya 10. Mirmulnir (feat. Abracadaver) Released September 24, 2021 https://unityversemusic.bandcamp.com/album/from-nowhere-lp

So... octave bass not your thing, eh? :DDDD

Never really understood what's so special about Ovnimoon - Galactic Mantra The opening lyrics just sound incredibly corny and clicheic to me

Basically anything from Etnica/Pleiadians. I sure can understand why people love them, but absolutely not my cup of chai. Well, except for this one (but then again, I have no idea if this is even considered a classic)

Episode 18, selected by Neon Jesus:

Ooh, nice. One of the (very) few goa trance albums I'll bother buying this year

................

This is a bit of an unusual one. Unusual in the sense that I never literally "played" this, but rather assembled it in REAPER to be played as the opening set of our outdoor goa trance party last weekend. I did of course play a proper night time goa trance DJ set a the party, that one will be up maybe next week when we get the recordings sorted out. So here's a mix of (mostly) 1990s downtempo moods Tracklist: Denshi-Danshi - Kraft Karamel Eat Static - Bony Incus (Mucor Mix) The Delta - As A Child I Could Walk On The Ceiling (Dub Edit) OOOD - Jot Bodom Eat Static - Abduction Cosmosis - Roswell Digitalis - Figments Of Reality (Chilled Mix) Children Of The Bong - Ionospheric State Banco de Gaia - Eagle Eat Static - Abnormal Interference Total Eclipse - Harbinger Slide - The Zinc-Plated Goddess Total Eclipse - Nakano Ghost Shpongle - Dorset Perception (Total Eclipse Remix)

This is a "merge these 2 threads" post. Can be removed if necessary.

Can't say I'd really have followed what he's been doing the past 20 years. One of the early true pioneers, nothing will change that fact Sonic Mandala is among the first goa trance releases I bought back in the days and still one of my treasures. Also, our little outdoor goa trance party featured just this weekend 2 large Space Tribe backdrops (as it has for many years already). Wouldn't really be the same party without those backdrops.

Episode 17, selected by Kryptine:

What started out as a simple experiment running a guitar track from an unfinished Painted In Void track through a bunch of effects turned quite unexpectedly into a growling dark ambient Frankenstein monster, which I cobbled together from pieces of other audio experiments I've done over the summer months. Full quality 24-bit version as "name your price" on Bandcamp: https://pauleye.bandcamp.com/track/sleep-malfunction-19-19-version YouTube for the full audiovisual experience (video quality is unfortunately quite garbage even at 1080p) Also available on SoundCloud:

Episode 16, artist mix selected by Lovement:

Episode 15, guest mix selected by SolEye:

It's not like this comes as any kind of a surprise to me.

UnityVerse Music proudly presents the debut EP from Finnish artist duo Lovement. Consisting of four genre-crossing tracks, Lovement fuses indigenous feelings and hypnotizing trippy downbeats with carefully designed uplifting fills while gliding through deep mystical vibes, delicate beat structures & neurofunk elements. Tracklist: 1. Bloom 2. Shapeshift (feat. CJ) 3. Dripstones 4. Wither 5. (secret bonus track for supporters) Released July 16, 2021 https://unityversemusic.bandcamp.com/album/bloom-ep

Ah yes, I just re-read the Instagram post I picked up the info from, and they did use the same text there too. I must have been too tired when I read that (not exactly a surprise you know). Still, this is a nice addition. And I'm still kinda bummed that I missed UX at ZNA 2015. Or rather, I was so tired I could barely stand up when UX started. I had no choice but to go to sleep.

And freakin' Marc Van Der Vlugt :OOOO

Now I'm just waiting for them to announce that Process will be playing a live producer set

Yeah I saw that too. I seriously have no idea how they (or who) managed to persuade Pete Martin to play. I was under the impression that he said something like 20 years ago that he'll "never ever touch anything trance ever again" (or somethng along those lines). Let's see what my finances looke like next year, this is so tempting since Pete is among my favourite oldschool artists.

Oh right, completely forgot the Simon+Raja 20th anniversary (?) set, that was nice too. The X-Dream part finished with some version of "The 1st", that's still one of those magical moments you get once in a lifetime. I actually was a bit worn out and in a state of mind unable to dance, so I sat through X-Dream/The Delta in a plastic garden chair somewhere on the dancefloor. Didn't diminish the experience at all XD
