  1. Mubali's style is definitely unique !!!! Most darkpsy is too mental for me, but Greg has the ability to throw the right bit of funkiness into the mix that makes it the first psytrance you could grind to !! With his trademark top hat and loads of energy, it's a joy to see him live too, not to mention being a down-to-earth and fun person to hang out with:
  2. Sleep, Dream & Wakefulness - we are constantly moving between these three states of consciousness each day. But within the material and subjective existence we call reality, rarely do we allow the body and mind to reach the dimension that underlies as well as transcends these three states. Literally translated from Sanskrit as "the fourth", TURIYA is the pure and most exalted state of consciousness, the merging with the supreme consciousness, the loss of ahamkara (ego), the state of perfect trance. We welcome you to an evening of trance dance, in communion with friends, nature and the sound of psychedelic trance. featuring: :: ANKUR :: (Noise Poison Records :: Berlin, Germany) DJ Ankur's sets have been a staple diet for European psytrance fans for the past few years. He is also a budding producer with tracks released on Digital Distortion Records and Evil Knevil Records. Gear up for an extended set of nighttime blasters. :: WICHDOKTA :: (Full Circle : Phoenix Family :: San Francisco CA) A pioneering force on the west coast psytrance scene, the Wichdokta always seems to have his finger on the pulse of the crowd. His sets are something of a spectacle to witness - amazing energy and sinister music go hand in hand to give you the ride of your life on the dancefloor. - SYLPH - (Shiva Shakti :: Austin TX USA : Monterrey MX) - FORCE MAJEURE - (T.O.U.C.H. Samadhi : Shiva Shakti :: Austin TX USA) - ECKOE - (Shiva Shakti : Texaliens :: Houston TX USA) - VAMPYROMORPHA - (Shiva Shakti :: Austin TX USA) ******************************************************************** Location: Outdoor space near Austin TX. Details to be announced closer to the event date. Deco: Machine-Elf & Shiva Shakti Sound: Continuum Entertainment Flyer & details: Shiva Shakti website ********************************************************************
  3. How do you know they are fake? Why would anyone post fake tears for someone's death? Exactly my point, don't do anything if you don't feel anything. You have the option to not open this thread if you don't like to see people express their grief. But why come in here purposely and say "please do not start the hysteria here too"? People should be free to post whatever they feel about this very sad incident. I'm not angry, i just thought it was very insensitive of you to say what you did - it's a death that people are "hysterical" about, and that too of a a very very popular artist.
  4. I love the way people pass judgement without knowing anything. Deja-Vu a label that released Zolod's music, they're not his family - but it's nice that they're trying to do something for the family. If they're asking for money, then there must be a need. And we don't know ANYTHING about why Zolod committed suicide ( and i personally am not interested in the gossipy stuff anyway). All i know is that Zolod made some amazing music, and i personally was deeply touched by it, and that is more than i can say even for some people i know personally. Grief has nothing to do with actually having met someone. The tsunami comparison is just absurd, there is absolutely no connection - i understand your point, but that was the worst comparison you could have given. Just because there was no psynews thread with people crying, you assume no one felt sadness when 300,000 people died in a day - maybe you didn't read the news and the record number of donations that went to the recovery (including proceeds from a special 3-CD psytrance compilation, which i proudly bought besides donating cash to a non-profit group in india). It makes every sense to have this thread coz Zolod was a core part of what this website is about. I don't see why someone who loved someone's music shouldn't be sad that he died. If there is a lot of people crying, it only shows the artist's popularity. If you don't feel anything about the artist or the death, feel free to ignore the post - why sit at your computer and give unsolicited advice about something that you're not interested in? It's quite insulting to call this "mass hysteria" and tell someone who is sad about a loss to not cry - i don't think anyone's pretending to be sad or has anything to gain from posting their feelings, it's just an open expression of grief. Very simple, no?
  5. sad sad sad ..... Parasense is my all time favorite artist. Thanks for all the smiles u gave through your music, Viktor. Hope you are happy where u are. http://forum.isratrance.com/viewtopic.php/...c/78608/forum/1 Viktor Zoodarenko was also Terminator/Zolod. :(

  7. FOUND IT !!! Sorry for the misinformation, it was a Dec 2003 release and Track 5. Anyway, it is: Bamboo Forest - Xtraball (E-Jekt Rmx) :)
  8. No, dude - it's not the one, but you were right, i do like that track too - the "shehnai" melody is pretty nice, the instrument is mostly played at indian weddings.
  9. He he....pretty close, but not the one The one i'm looking for has a male voice, and no lyrics - just the improvization of the cadence. The bassline is also not the goa style, but the newer - damn, i wish i could think of an artist to compare with. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
  10. Oh, very full-on !! That's the best part about it Very good production, not your std. morning full-on with cheesy breakdowns, or the standard dark stuff with mental noises/screams. Thanks insejn.. i was beginning to give up hope
  11. Anyone can identify this for me? It's been stuck in my head for the last week, and i can't seem to remember which track it was, i just remember listening to it a few times last year. Here's what i know: 1) It is track 4 on a compilation released in 2004 - before august. 2) Pretty dark, but not mental dark - it's quite happy but powerful dark. I can't compare to any artist at this point. 3) The singing starts quite late in the track, and there's almost no other breakdowns or samples in the track. 4) The singing i'm talking about is the indian raga style singing - A deep male voice simply goes "aaaa....." with the pitch trembling and rising and falling.... he he, i know it sounds funny, but that's the best description i can give. Please help. Thanks !!
  12. Sorry for the late announcement. I didn't think there would be anyone here from Texas, but then i remembered that i found psynews.org long before i found the psytrance scene in Texas when i moved here. So just in case you or your friends are in or around Austin: http://www.psilonautika.org/ See you soon.
