Care to substantiate your claims/opinions?

Probably none. It would be nice if there were one I reckon, though I guess it is that longing/desire that makes one open to be "manipulated", so to speak. But in all practically it probably doesn't make any difference.

yeah alright, sorry for the swearing, it is just a subject i feel strongly about. sorry again

You are so wrong, when I were a lad I thought they sounded sh*te. Still do.

Unfortunately. But remember, "Psytrance isn't just a style of music. It is a state of mind." (or rather an experience you have).

To misquote Mr T. Mckenna.... "There is no psytrance scene. There are only people who know this and people who don't know this and are therefore being manipulated by the people who do know it." And to quote Mr T. Leary, "Think for yourself, Question Authority."

In moderation spice is good, we all know what happened to Paul when he had too much. And no matter how you spin your propoganda this is not an EXTENDED PLAY release. I feel more sorry for you, than you could ever imagine.

*sigh* BTW 2 Tracks maketh not an EP but a single, or at least those who can remember such things. You know A and B sides. Saying that, it sounded alright. A little generic, but a bit more interesting/spicy than the normal fare,

People seemingly make time for what they consider important. Mosbunal people I have met who've claimed to be too busy, are actually poor at managing their time and resources, but sombunal of them seem to prefer that lifestyle, as it seems to justify their existance, by being "busy", and thus whatever they are doing "is terribly important". I am sure you are not one of these people. mosbunal=most but not all sombunal=some but not all Simply it wasn't blind accusations, but based on over 10 years professional experience in the psytrance "scene" (sic). So before you go making such blatant made-up statements, I suggest you get your facts in order.

Elysium, is right. C***s who don't bother to even read their mail because they are "too busy" are just full of s**t and ego. "Oh look at me, I am so important and busy maaaaaaaaan, I can't even open an email account and look at some emails that take a few minutes to answer"... Being a full-time father, making psychedelic videos, writing computer games, looking after and doing DIY on a house, cooking and cleaning, and tending to a pregnant partner, and I still manage to read and answer my emails, comments on youtube, write on forums.... etc etc. Open your mind, and realise these f*****s don't give a damn about anything else other than their egos. Good luck with trying to make any money out of this "bulls**t" scene, I am 99.5% certain you are going to lose even more money than you did running a free-label. But I also hope that I am wrong. Bit of a shame mind, I had only just discovered your lovely label. But anyway fancy a nice new free spanking video for your Dimension Gate 2 release?

I suspect they want to remain anonymous because how awful it sounded. Fucking terrible, as far as music goes, at least to my ears. A new level of crap to scrap off the barrel of psytrance. I would give this to my enemies to listen to. But hey what do I know, I am probably just an old fart, and all the kiddies will love it.

Imho, Pinchbeck is just another hustler, going for the "new-age" dollar, with his book and lecture tour. His second book on the Return of Queztocoatl was turgid at best, full of ideas stolen from elsewhere. The "eschaton" is a personal event, not some hollywood blockbuster, global apocalypse or such nonsense. And mushrooms aren't strictly an orally active DMT entheogen, for a start the amount of DMT present is very small, and the metabolic pathways, of the breakdown and recombination of the indole molecule is subtly, but profoundly different. Really with magic mushrooms, it seems to be the breadth of typtamine substances that give it, its' unique flavour imho. There is no "psytrance" community, trust me, I have been to most of the roots of it, and it just doesn't exist, other than a hopeful projection in our minds. Part of the process of waking up/enlightenment seems to be realising this, and how certain people are using these natural inclinations of ours, the desire for sangha, to basically sell us "shit". Trying to get people to "do shit", or "get off their busted arses", is for the most point pointless. Not only does it tend to display a lack of appreciation for the situation, and wind up others, but really the only person one need to encourage, berate, and enthuse, is oneself. To judge others, for what they are or aren't doing, is a lack of tact, afterall we are ALL seemingly doing exactly as we should be. Though thankfully this isn't either deterministic or fatalistic, as we can seemingly to some degree change our own actions, which we hope will be the butterfly to ignite the changes mosbunal of us we like to see in our environment. But even if not, it is about living the life, one wills/imagines/dreams rather than feels is dictated and imposed by foreign/alien factors.

+1 for Ektoplazm's release of Radioactive Sandwich.

Well that looks like an example of your "mind-manifesting". As for free art software, these are the bees knees. Paint.net (Photoshop) Gimp (Photoshop) Inkscape (vector art/corel draw)

As Leary said, "Think for yourself, Question Authority". Interesting reply. I didn't really expect any replies, let alone one that contained so many sentences and words. Some say, the/one's (aware/awake) mind is the universe.

http://www.youtube.com/trancevisuals 100% original videos, with original psychedelic inspired graphics, made to music with the express permission of the artists involved. New videos are added every month or two. Subscribers appreciated and loved.

Indeed, it might be edible but is it digestible and nutritious? I mean shit is "edible" doesn't mean you would want to.

From the "Dude" himself http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZG-wlwtnDcE As for the album I liked a couple of tracks, not so sure about a couple of others.

I've never heard a piece of music that ever has had a hundreth of the effect of a "good" drug. However when the two are combined the synergistic effect in my experience can be mind blowing. I wish I had more music like this, as it does fall into that "hundreth of the effect" category http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVvK9doaJZU

It is a book that Robert Anton Wilson, McKenna, Timothy Leary and Alan Watts all recommend people should read to various degrees, and in most of their cases forms one of the pillars of their, in some ways "our" psychedelic philosophy. It seems a lot scarier and intellectual than it is, and I think that is one way it is "hidden", as though it is unaccessible, but to only the most educated minds. Our Culture tends to do that with information it wants to suppress it seems. Anyway I was wondering whether anyone else had read it, and what they thought of it?

My favourite Hesse book by far, Reminding us that we carry each other on the spiritual journey, and that some parts of the path are narrow ledges, that by virtue of our own self-testing we must at times walk alone. But mostly that "The East", that which we seek, really resides in each and everyone of us, here and now, not somewhere else, sometime else. I found quite a few of his other books quite depressing, but worthwhile. I wonder who else got turned onto Hesse through Leary's writings?

WOW!

*sigh* Its just a pretty picture I made (as in the 3d model), which is actually of a Satyr (see Pan/Puck). Mythologically a creature I have always felt a kinship towards, for various childish and trite reasons. By the way the Polish reference is one of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions But anyway I am outta of here, I think the scene as I imagined it is over, and I really need to let go and find greener pastures. And don't worry it's not you, it's me. Love you all as myself, and hope you all find what you are looking for.

Yeah right.. NOT!

2 pages, and its just another promotional thread....
